Terry Gene Bollea[8][9] (/bəˈleɪə/; born August 11, 1953), better known by his ring name Hulk Hogan, is an American retired professional wrestler. He is widely regarded as the most recognized wrestling star worldwide and the most popular wrestler of the 1980s, as well as one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time.[10]
Hogan began his professional wrestling career in 1977 but gained worldwide recognition after signing for World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) in 1983. There, his persona as a heroic all-American helped usher in the 1980s professional wrestling boom, where he headlined a record eight editions of WWF’s flagship annual event, WrestleMania. Hogan also was a regular headliner of Saturday Night’s Main Event and its spin-off The Main Event in which he headlined 31 editions of both shows combined. During his initial run, he won the WWF Championship five times, with his first reign being the second-longest in the championship’s history. He is the first wrestler to win consecutive Royal Rumble matches, winning in 1990 and 1991. His match with Andre the Giant on WWF The Main Event on February 5, 1988, still holds American television viewership records for wrestling with a 15.2 Nielsen rating and 33 million viewers.[11]
