Hulk Hogan’s reputation as a global icon means that he is a worldwide known star. His name carries huge popularity across the world and is one of the most recognized faces in pro wrestling. In the US, fans and people from other walks of life are used to seeing Hogan’s stardom. But Hulkamania runs equally wild on the other side of the globe as well.

Hulk Hogan cut a fierce promo on Jesse Hogan.

The legendary wrestler then called out the football player for having the same last name as him in a manner reminiscent of his WCW days. He said, “Let me tell you something… You haven’t done fu*k all to call yourself a Hogan.” The Sterling Golden wasn’t done with the insults and amusingly said, “I mean what the fu*k you played 4 games and you call yourself a Hogan. My daughter could kick your a** brother.”

Hulk Hogan then went over and shook hands with him. He then playfully put the player in a headlock before the two stars posed for photographs. The reaction Hulk Hogan received as he entered the room and, throughout his presence in the video, reaffirms his status as a truly global superstar.
