1. “The Immortal” Hulk Hogan
Possible WrestleManias where both were on the WWF/E Roster:
WrestleMania VII, WrestleMania VIII, WrestleMania IX, WrestleMania X-8, WrestleMania XIX. WrestleMania 21, WrestleMania 22, WrestleMania XXX.
The Best WrestleMania for that Match to happen: WrestleMania 22
Whether you like him or you don’t, Hulk Hogan is without a shadow of a doubt the Greatest Name in the History of Professional Wrestling, so what a great accomplishment if The Undertaker had put him on his list of Streak-Victims??
Now this is actually the toughest one, as far as which WrestleMania they could have possibly faced each other. Sure a lot of things would have had to change in each and every scenario, for this to have happened on the card of an the greatest stage of them all, but this time we decided on a latter WrestleMania, just because all the alternatives just didn’t feel right for various reasons.
In 2006, it’s very well documented that they were searching for a worthy opponent to face Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania 22, but couldn’t come up with anyone Hulk agreed to wrestle. Among the suggested choices were other Veterans like (believe it or not) Greg Valentine & Sycho Sid, who had just returned to the ring after his major career ending injury he suffered in WCW.
And with The Undertaker being in a rather average storyline with Mark Henry, whom he had totally owned during a previous episode of WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event already, this would have probably been the right place and the right time to book the big Blockbuster Hogan vs. Taker match.
Another great WrestleMania Moment for the ages right there!
