However, the former heavyweight champion of the world refused to enter the same ring as Hulk Hogan in WWE. ‘Kid Dynamite’ feared that Hogan would be too much for him to tackle in the ring. Therefore, jokingly, Tyson acknowledging Hogan’s size and strength claimed that the latter would kill him “as a shoe” if they squared off against one another in WWE.
