According to reports, The Undertaker lost it on Hulk Hogan because The Hulkster faked an injury after their first-ever bout.

The Undertaker and Hulk Hogan are two of the biggest superstars WWE has ever produced, but not many people know they had real-life tension. The Undertaker made his WWE debut in 1990 and quickly became popular because of his dark and mysterious character, which stood out from the colorful and exaggerated wrestlers of that time.

Since he was a huge success, he got a championship opportunity within a year and faced Hulk Hogan in the match. The Undertaker won by using his finishing move, the Tombstone. After the fight, Hogan claimed he was injured by the move, but when the video was reviewed, it showed that his head never actually hit the mat.

At the 1991 Survivor Series, The Undertaker faced Hulk Hogan in a high-voltage match between two of WWE’s biggest stars, each with completely opposite personalities. At the time, Hogan was a global sensation known for his heroic image and inspiring millions of fans worldwide.

In contrast, The Undertaker had a dark and mysterious “Deadman” persona. While Hogan was admired as a hero, The Undertaker later became just as famous, but as a villain.

The match lived up to expectations, but the ending was completely unexpected. The Undertaker used his finishing move, the Tombstone, to win. Even though the move is considered safe, Hulk Hogan claimed he was injured and caused chaos backstage.

At the time, The Undertaker was only 24 years old, and he felt guilty for possibly hurting the company’s top star. Just six days later, Hogan won back his title, and many fans believed WWE did this to punish The Undertaker.

Still carrying guilt, The Undertaker later saw a video of the match, which proved Hogan’s head never hit the mat. Realizing Hogan had faked his injury, The Undertaker was furious and confronted him, but Hogan quickly made up a weak excuse. The Deadman didn’t push the matter further, but years later, he said that moment made him understand what Hulk Hogan was really like.

Hulk Hogan was a legend in wrestling, but honesty was never his strong suit. Throughout his career, he made so many false claims that it’s hard to keep track. Let’s take a look at some of the most unbelievable things he has said.

Hulk Hogan once claimed Elvis Presley was a Hulkmaniac, which could have been true only if the King of Rock and Roll survived till Hogan made his WWE debut. Presley died in 1977, two years before Hulk Hogan stepped into the wrestling world.

Hulk Hogan has made some wild claims over the years, like saying he almost joined Metallica or that the legendary boxer Mike Tyson was afraid of him. But one of the funniest has to be when he claimed he wrestled 400 days a year because of time zone differences. Over time, we’ve learned that it’s best to double-check before believing anything Hogan says.

No matter what, Hulk Hogan has been one of WWE’s most important wrestlers. He played a huge role in making WWE popular worldwide and turning it into a household name.
