Hulk Hogan recently opened up on Joe Rogan‘s podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience. During their chat, Hogan’s cameo appearance in the Sylvester Stallone-starred movie Rocky III was also discussed. From the conversation between them, it became obvious that Hogan has a lot of memories connected to the movie. However, not everything about those memories was good. The wrestling legend showed up to the movie after going against Vince McMahon Sr. He still remembers clearly how things turned upside down just before he was packing to go to Los Angeles to act in the movie.

Before leaving, he dialed Vince Sr. to inform him of the same. However, Vince Sr. asked the WWF legend not to go and act in the movie. He even warned him that he would be fired from the organization if he chose to go forward with acting in Rocky III. Hogan was determined and traveled to LA to be a part of the iconic scene. Now, years after, Joe Rogan praised Hogan for standing up for himself and acting in the movie. Let’s have a closer look at Rogan’s take on Hogan’s decision.
