Late WWE Superstar Vader has often spoken about how the locker room changed once Hulk Hogan arrived at WCW in 1994.

Now, Hogan may have been extremely good for the company, but he wasn’t always the best colleague to the other pro-wrestlers in the company.

During an interview in 1998, Vader revealed that Hulk Hogan backstabbed him by changing a match. The idea of the match was that Vader would put down The Hulkster, and he would stay down.

However, Vader revealed that after he put down Hogan, he got up. This ended up confusing him and infuriating him as he realized that Hogan had backstabbed him.

“He got up off my finish before the series. And, I was told to give it to him and he was gonna lay there. Next thing I know, he got up. I’m thinking, Jesus, this is how these guys get over l. They backstab you.”

During the same interview, he revealed that he thought WCW wasn’t doing what was good for the company after Hogan arrived.

In his opinion, WCW should have let him go over before pushing Hogan to the top. But, as soon as Hogan arrived, he was defeating top guys while making more money than the top guys on the roster.

Tragically, Vader passed away in 2018 after being hospitalized for pneumonia for a month.
