Terry Gene Bollea[6] (born August 11, 1953), better known by his ring name Hulk Hogan, is an American actor and retired professional wrestler.
Bollea had mainstream popularity in the mid 1980s through the early 1990s as the all-American, working-class hero character Hulk Hogan in the World Wrestling Federation (WWF—now World Wrestling Entertainment), and was notable in the mid-to-late 1990s as "Hollywood" Hogan, the villainous nWo leader, in World Championship Wrestling (WCW). Following WCW's fold, he made a brief return to the WWE in the early 2000s, revising his heroic character by combining elements of his two most famous personas.
Bollea was later inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005 and is a twelve-time world heavyweight champion: a six-time WWF/E Champion[7] and a six-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion[8] as well as a former World Tag Team Champion with Edge.[9][10] He was also the winner of the Royal Rumble in 1990 and 1991.[9][11] In September 2008 Hogan's net worth was revealed to be over $30 Million dollars.[12][13][14]
