Hulk Hogan is aware there are a lot of false stories out there regarding his life and career.
WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan was a recent guest on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet. When asked why he doesn’t debunk some of the false stories out there about him, Hogan said it basically comes down to the circumstances.
“But some of the Hulk Hogan stories like, oh my gosh, my dad says, hello, he played basketball with you for 15 years and Venice Beach,” Hulk Hogan said. “Well, tell your dad I said hello. But I’ve never played basketball. I don’t say Hey, kid, your dad is a liar.
“I mean, you know, you just can’t go there. But I think she’s [Sky] to the point now where she understands that the people have been endeared by this character so much. Everybody’s got a Hulk Hogan story, whether it’s good or bad, true or false.
“They tell that story. And sometimes I wonder, what are they still getting out of that story? A lot of wrestlers will tell stories about me that I hear. And it’s just not true. Some of the guys are Main Event guys, and I hear these stories. I wonder what they’re still getting out of telling that story.”
That doesn’t work for me, brother!
When asked about the infamous “That doesn’t work for me, brother” tagline that Hogan’s been associated with over the years, Hogan admitted that was his go-to line on multiple occasions.
“Well, if I knew the individual stories, I can tell whether it happened, but that was my catchphrase,” Hulk Hogan admitted. “That doesn’t work for me, brother. You know, like, there were several times when Ric Flair and I were traveling, and we do like the Maple Leaf Gardens, the main event.
“Then there’d be like Brantford, Ontario, which I would always make the double shot, but every once in a while, I had other stuff to do. So I’d say Ric, take my car, you know, jump back on the plane because that doesn’t work for me, brother. But that was my go-to line, you know.”
