This is a factually accurate meme lol! He ratted out Jesse “The Body” Ventura for trying to start a wrestlers union way back in 1986!

Quill7513 ,

Iirc Macho Man Randy Savage was also instrumental to unionization efforts and the company turned him heel for it. The result? Everyone loved Macho Man Randy Savage as a heel more than they ever loved him as a face. There’s something extremely relatable to all of us about a guy who tries to speak up about injustice but doesn’t get the traction and has to go back to making the magic our companies don’t deserve

son_named_bort ,

Better to be a heel than a scab.

grte ,

Macho Man also released a diss track about Hulk Hogan.

A little tangential but how often do you get a chance to reference this?

KingThrillgore ,
@KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml avatar

Macho Man was just plain likable all the time. He always cut the greatest promos, had an ego larger than life, and he’s one of the best things about the Raimi Spider-Man movies. Anytime I think of the wrestling greats, I think of Randy Savage.

WhatYouNeed ,

Ooooh yeah!

lightnsfw ,

When we were kids my brother and I met him once at a mini golf course in Florida. He was very nice even though we were assholes interrupting his family time.

gabereal ,

Randy Savage started his WWF career as a heel. Initially, he didn’t have a manager, so a bunch of heel managers would attend his squash matches and marvel at how amazing he was ( www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBIXztSSNr0 ). Then after a few matches and promos, he finally announced that he had chosen a manager: Miss Elizabeth ( www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_G1iMUbbBs ) (In reality, I’m pretty sure he and Elizabeth were a package deal; she would be slated to be his manager/valet before he came to the WWF)

He definitely seemed like a good, genuine dude and someone that was good at most every aspect of pro wrestling (maybe not as technical as Brett Hart, but who is?) regardless, though.

cardboardchris ,

I heard that story as part of the Behind the Bastards series on Vince McMahon. It was an excellent and very entertaining four- or five-episode series.

Quill7513 ,

Did not know there was a BtB about Vince McMahon. I’ll have to check that out

vividspecter ,

four- or five-episode series.

It was six episodes. That’s how much was needed to cover how much of a piece of shit Vince is.

When the world seems full of Hogans, look to the Andre the giants instead. Edit: Oh and throw them off hell in a cell, plummeting 16ft through an announcer’s table

Kyrgizion ,

I would, but the Hogans are plentiful and thriving, while the Andre the Giants of the world are either dead or being threatened by the Hogans.

Evil wins daily. We live in a world where “evil” has profoundly established itself as the leading paradigm for all of humanity, and all of us lost a long time ago, sometimes before being born.

Why does Trump have so many d list celebs promoting him? They are all so old and irrelevant and just trying to grasp at the spot light once more. They don’t care about him. They just desperately want to be recognized once more

Drunemeton ,
@Drunemeton@lemmy.world avatar

Because the C+ List celebs won’t touch weird creepy Donald Trump!

StaySquared ,

Nah they rather touch little kids.

I think you just asked a question and then immediately answered it

Sometimes i gotta type/ write it out to make it make sense

Frog ,

How many of them got on Epstein’s plane?

StaySquared ,

Could be a generational move. I grew up on Hulk Hogan (from preteen to early teenage years). So those of my generation would be pulled in by these “old and irrelevant” people.

Voroxpete , (edited )

I mean, Hulk isn’t exactly a d-lister. The guy still gets huge pops at wrestling shows. It’s more that he’s absolutely trashed his rep with younger people by constantly being a disgusting piece of shit.

BallsandBayonets ,

At wrestling shows being the key. You can’t get better than a D-lister if you only perform in D-list entertainment.

Voroxpete ,

I think you might be seriously underestimating how big a deal wrestling still is in America. We’re not in the glory days of the eighties anymore but it’s still capable of catapulting people like John Cena to mega stardom. Cody Rhodes has barely been back in WWE for a year, and he’s already been added to Call of Duty: Warzone. AEW is the baby brother to WWE and they’re now regularly selling out Wembley Stadium. None of that is small time.

InevitableWaffles ,
@InevitableWaffles@midwest.social avatar

You also have to consider the audience Trump is trying to please. Who is going to pull more people? Steve Mnuchin talking about Trump glowingly or a clown wrestler that Trump’s fans remember as a childhood hero backing their pick?

baggachipz ,

Let’s also remember that Trump literally wrestled in WWE.

drunkpostdisaster ,

He didn’t wrestle, he did a few shitty spots with his friend and fellow rapist Vince.

InevitableWaffles ,
@InevitableWaffles@midwest.social avatar

True. That was my peak wrestling watching era.

dumbass ,
@dumbass@leminal.space avatar

Well, he didn’t wrestle, he had bobby lashley as his proxy then gave Vince McMahon a hair cut, buuuut, Trump is in the WWE Hall Of Fame.

He did clothesline Vince lol.

And just to make me feel better, here’s Stone Cold giving Trump a Stunner

baggachipz ,

So he didn’t wrestle but he gave Vince a clothesline?

Nuke_the_whales ,

Damn that would hurt Hogan’s feelings to be called D list. That dude can sell out the Astro done. I saw him vs the Rock at Skydome and it was one of the most epic crowds and crowd reactions I’ve ever witnessed. The guy is a piece of shit, but as an entertainer he was top tier. Billions of fans at his peak.

Dorkyd68 ,

That dude ain’t selling shit out. He may still be popular with wrestling fans from the 90s/80s ( older folks) and may draw a decent crowd but i promise you he isnt popular with todays youth.

I wasn’t trying to hurt the hulksters feelers but it seems like I hurt yours. You ok bud?

Nuke_the_whales ,

You need to calm down. I haven’t watched wrestling in 20 years and hate the guy as a person. I’m just pointing out a fact and you’re foaming at the mouth

Hikermick ,

I think a lot of has beens hitch onto whatever they think will pull them back into the spotlight. Trump is easily manipulated like that. Compliment him and if he retreats you, you’ve got a million new followers

You're a troll though. It's easy to tell because every single post in your comment history is trolling.

“I mean, I’d rather if she was going to f–k some n–ger, I’d rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n–ger worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player!” Hogan reportedly says in the tape while in the midst of an extended rant about his daughter. “I guess we’re all a little racist. F–king n–ger.” -Hulk Hogan

Hulk Hogan a racist piece of shit.

@nobleshift@lemmy.world avatar

Such a shame. I grew up a couple of miles from his old house, Terry/HH would be out on the town, autoparts, picking up take out, riding his motorcycle, regular dude / dad stuff etc etc. He had a reputation of being super nice, soft spoken, and a good tipper, you know in the before times of long ago.

Nuke_the_whales ,

In the business he’s known as a racist, a deviant, union buster, and a pathological liar. Dude lies about the most easily verifiable shit like “I partied with Jon Belushi after WrestleMania 1” (Belushi died 2 years prior to that) and “I was the first choice to be the lead in the movie the wrestler” (meanwhile the director confirms that’s 100% not true).

nobleshift ,
@nobleshift@lemmy.world avatar

That’s a shame, all of it, though I guess none of it matters when you support fascism. Eh, throw another slice of childhood on the fire.

Nuke_the_whales ,

I used to also love that wrestler Chris Jericho back When I was a teen watching wrestling, and I checked him out recently. He’s a trump supporter and his wife was at the Jan 6th insurrection. Trump has at least caused these guys to show their true colors, which makes it easier for us to chuck em in the bin.

That is a tarnished silver lining of the whole maga thing isn’t it? Masks off

He is not a nice guy.

Woht24 ,

Did you grow up within a smaller radius to Hulk Hogan?

drunkpostdisaster ,

No, I am literally in the wrestling business and I read a lot about wrestling history. I have yet to find anyone saying anything positive about him.

BleatingZombie ,

I see what you’re saying, but I believe the root comment is talking about before he got famous

POV: you’re trump and elon

drunkpostdisaster ,

Fuck that hotdog colored pieces of trash. No clearer proof of there being no god then every time that traitor carney draws breath.

Wogi OP ,

I mean yeah he’s totally a carny but don’t hate on carnies, they’re all carnies.

Actually come to think of it, I think most politicians are pretty much carnies at this point.

mojofrododojo ,

Many. I don’t think most.

But many, and there are DEFINITELY the RUBES - carnies and rubes were made for each other.
