Hulk Hogan, born Terry Gene Bollea on August 11, 1953, in Augusta, Georgia, is a retired American professional wrestler, actor, television personality, and entrepreneur. He is widely regarded as one of the most iconic figures in professional wrestling history and a key figure in popularizing the sport during the 1980s and 1990s.
Growing up in Tampa, Florida, Hogan was the son of a construction worker and a homemaker. He developed an interest in sports at a young age, participating in baseball and football during his school years. After high school, he attended the University of South Florida and pursued a music career, performing in local bands. However, his passion for wrestling would soon take center stage.
Hogan’s wrestling journey began in the late 1970s when he trained under the legendary wrestler Hiro Matsuda. He made his debut in 1977 in the Florida wrestling circuit, adopting the ring name “Hulk Hogan,” inspired by the character in the comic book series The Incredible Hulk. He quickly gained popularity due to his imposing physique, charisma, and distinctive mustache.
Hogan’s big break came when he joined the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) in 1983. Under the guidance of promoter Vince McMahon, Hogan became the face of the organization and played a pivotal role in transforming professional wrestling into a mainstream entertainment phenomenon.
