“The Bulgarian Brute” said he met Hogan many times and spoke with him a couple weeks ago about WrestleMania matches.
“I’ve talked to him a couple weeks about…different matches with Warrior in WrestleMania XI, with The Rock in Toronto. He knows so much and he has so much experience and so many stories to tell.”
