You know, I’m a proud Hulkamaniac. Have been since around 86. Then, I turned into a giant Ultimate Warrior fan.

I’ll never forget it. It must have been 1989, maybe 1990. My Mom and aunt took my brother and me to El Paso, TX to see a WWF live event. The main event was Mr. Perfect vs. The Ultimate Warrior. I was in heaven. Also, I saw the Bushwackers, Hacksaw Jim, and a whole bunch of others. It was pretty sweet.
I would go to a few other wrestling events, but I never had the pleasure of watching Hogan wrastle anyone. However, I did see the great, “Nature Boy,” Ric Flair, wooooooooooooooooooooo!
Personally, I think they should have made a biopic on Flair before Hogan. What can you do?
The film will follow Hogans’s rise to stardom in the 1980s. No word yet on a release date. Hemsworth has said that his gym sessions are more intense than they were when he was training to play, “Thor.” It takes a lot of work to develop those 24-inch pythons, brother.
