He said, “The last 15 years I was wrestling, the doctors were shooting me up with these facet injections cause the nerves would be impeached off. Then when that did not work, they would actually do the radio frequency where they would actually burn the nerves off. “

However, Hogan further claimed that post which he required a back-surgery but that got messed up in between. The 69-year-old said, “we went from our first back surgery and the guy cut too much bone away, and I ended up having ten all together. So, it was such a weird change.”

He continued, “after back surgery no.6, I am told I may never walk again. You know, it’s been quite a journey to over here, to get healthy and back on my feet. I mean I train for hour and half everyday.”

Hogan is now in much better shape and trains regularly. From being told he would be in a wheelchair forever to being in good shape. The Hulkster has come a long way and inspired many.

During his podcast with Helwani, he also expressed his desire of facing Steve Austin at WrestleMania 40. Hogan claimed that he returned to WWE in the early 2000s, to have a bout against Austin, but it never happened.

However, he now wants to have a retirement match with him at WrestleMania 40. Austin was rumored to return this year, he did not do so.

Both Hogan and Austin are way outside their prime years, and the match might not be entertaining enough for the fans as well.
