You promised me that you would get more made and give me a Hulkster headband of my own as a thank-you gift. A month later in Madison Square Garden, you did just that. You kept your word, with a handshake and a ‘thanks kid’. And that meant the world to that little 12-year-old boy.”Johnson then reminisced on their legendary match at Rogers Centre at WrestleMania X8, a match that Johnson said “was to decide who would go down in history, as The Greatest of All Time.” It remains one of the greatest matches of all time and one that has defined wrestling history.The post featured the fight on a small television, reminiscent of that of the late 90s and early 2000s.FIVE UNFORGETTABLE HULK HOGAN MATCHES THAT DEFINED WRESTLING HISTORY”When you kick out of my Rock Bottom finisher – just listen and FEEL that crowd go ELECTRIC…all for you. I’ve never felt anything like that in my entire wrestling career. It takes two to tango, but that historic crowd reaction was all for you,” Johnson wrote. “You may have ‘passed the torch’ to me that night, but you, my friend….you ‘drew the house’ meaning you sold out every arena and stadium across the country in your prime as Hulk Hogan, on your way to becoming the greatest of all time.”From deep in my bones, and on behalf of this wild and crazy world of professional wrestling that we love, I say to you now, and forever…Thank you for the house, brother… Thank you, for the house.
