I thought Suburban Commando was the greatest movie ever when I was young. Like I talked about it all the time. Probably why my 2nd grade teacher wanted to hold me back.

Regardless, RIP to a legend.

Hogan helped give Trump 2 Wrestlemania moments

Wrestlemanias 4 & 5 were both at "Trump Plaza" (just the Atlantic City Convention Center rebranded for those 2 nights)

Those 2 nights were the 1st & final chapters of the "Mega-Powers Explode" storyline with "Macho Man" Randy Savage & Miss Elizabeth

71 in pro wrestling years is like 150 in regular person years especially for one that took grams and grams of anabolic steroids for decades.

I know it sounds old to say but I'll say it. Kids today just don't understand how much the kids of the late 70s and early 80s worshipped those WWF and Memphis Wrestling folks. Just about anyone my age can tell you where they were and who they were with when Hulk body slammed Andre the Giant and beat him at Wrestlemania. Rasslin was never the same after that. They became international super stars.

Damn talk about an icon from my childhood this guy may have been the biggest.

He came into his own as an a-hole heel in my later teenage and early college years!!! A helluva entertainer in these years.

It’s unfortunate he couldn’t kick out of this one. RIP Brother! Can’t imagine the matches he’ll be having in heaven with all the other boys!

Nah, I'm good.

It's a sad day. Hogan made wrestling what it is now, but let's not try to make him out to be some mythical superhero b/c he was far from it.

I think that's the movie that had a preview before the TMNT movie. I never saw it but saw the ad 100 times.
