There was nothing bigger than Hulk Hogan in the world of wrestling in the ’80s. From his wrestling career to his pop culture moments, he helped bring pro wrestling to the pop culture scene. He was the role model for so many young buds, like John Cena, Dwayne Johnson, and Steve Austin at the time. It was because of Hogan that Vince McMahon was confident enough to start WWE traditions like WrestleMania.

McMahon pushed Hogan to the spotlight, and this meant that the former champion had the opportunity to make friends in high places. While Hogan became good friends with Mr. T and Sylvester Stallone because of his Rocky III role, WWE introduced him to a musical legend. Cyndi Lauper started showing up on WWE TV in 1985, and that is where this rare photo came from.

While we don’t know any details about the photo, Cyndi Lauper looks like she’s having the time of her life hanging from the 24-inch pythons of Hogan. At the time, one of his gimmicks was to show his biceps and their supernatural size.

This is how big Hogan was. It overjoyed even the biggest pop star at the time to meet him. Also, this was just the beginning, as Hogan would reign as the top star for over a decade in WWE.
