Your Hulk Hogan Wacky Quotes Of The Day

News

Via the Chicago Tribune’s Luis Arroyave, here are your wacky Hulk Hogan claims of the day:

On his WWE Hall of Fame ring:

“I think Vince McMahon paid $20 for it,” said Hogan as he sat in the mostly empty restaurant in his hotel. “My high school ring was better than this thing.”

On a second career as a rock star:

“I was in England presenting an award with Jerry Hall, Mick Jagger’s ex, and she told me the [Rolling] Stones were looking for a bass player,” Hogan said. “I sent her a ton of merchandise that she asked for and said ‘Tell Mick I’m a great bass player.’ I never heard a word back.

“When Metallica was looking for a bass player, I called and never heard a word back from them either. I would have quit wrestling in a heartbeat to be a bass player for Metallica.”

On joining TNA and taking on WWE again:

“Some people say Vince made wrestling and some say it was Hulk Hogan,” Hogan said. “We both did it together. I thought it would be cool to see who has more juice right now.”

“People might say I’m too slow or crippled to get back in the ring,” Hogan said. “I can’t say they’re wrong. I heard Stone Cold [Steve Austin] say ‘I’m not hanging around and embarrassing myself like some of these old guys.’ I wonder who he’s talking about, you know?

“I still have reasons to go do this, and it’s not just because I need to make money — which I do. I still love it. I still love it, man. I don’t know what else to say.”
