Hulk Hogan vs Ulimate Warrior

Recommended Posts

Guest The Midnight Rocking Warrior

1. I freakin' love that match

2. Hogan in Japan owns all

3. The warrior has had some good matches ( Although he was carried)

4. Even the rspw people ( Who hate them both ) like that match........ has Hogan ever won a positive Rspw award? Oh yeah, 1990 best babyface. He also won the Pwi award for most popular that year so I guess 1990 Hogan also owns ( His Japan match against Stan Hansen really entertained me)

We get it. You don't like Warrior.

 

Just shut up, JMA. Everytime he's mentioned you bitch, it's over.

 

 

He's moved on... why can't you?

Moved on from what? And I'll bitch about whomever or whatever I please. If you don't like it...well, too bad. That's not my problem.

I have his match with Hansen on tape, and I say it's actaully a good match (shoot me now). Anyways Hogan was trained by Hiro Matsuda, and he was good. I think Hogan could have been good, its just that he forgot about that with the saying you prayers, etc. He's also been carried too. Bockwinkle, Dibiese, Savage, etc. Personally Hogan in Japan was good. His Chono match was 2 stars. Of course, this is coming from a guy who's one of his favorite matches was the infamous Hansen/Vader eyeball match.

Why shoot you? Hogan vs. Hansen is a very good match. Until I see the acclaimed Hogan/Backland matches, I would put it as the best Hogan match I've seen, and at that time, it was one of Hansen's best singles performances.

 

Make no mistake, it is Hansen's match. The match follows the same formula as most 90s Stan Hansen matches, and it's obvious during the transitions that he's calling the shots. Still, as in most Stan Hansen matches at that time he does let the other guy(Hogan in this case) get a great deal of offense in while letting him control the body of the match.

 

Hogan does indeed do a good job of using his time effectively, displaying a decent midrange offense that he rarely used in the WWF. However, Hansen is the one who should be credited for keeping this portion of the match interesting. Hansen is the one who keeps the match moving by constantly roaming around the ring, and falling to the floor while selling, forcing Hogan to stay on the move. Hansen also forces Hogan to keep the rest holds brief, like when he breaks up the Adbominal Stretch rather quickly.

 

Hogan is solid in the match, and never resorts to Hulking Up and no selling. But Hansen's performance was incredible. Just compare this Hogan/Savage, and it's obvious who did the better job of working with Hogan.

 

I have heard good things about Hogan's work in the early 80s, and I would very much be interested in tracking some down when I get the time and money.

Yes, a very good match. If you're a Hogan fan, check it out. My favourite Hogan match of all time.

Putting the the match on the WM 18 DVD in its entirety was such a fucking awesome extra.
