Hulk Hogan
Blonde mustached grappler
Hulk Hogan is the ring name of Terry Bollea, an American professional wrestler who became the sport's most recognizable figure in the 1980s.
His persona—the handlebar mustache, bandana, and theatrical shirt-ripping—defined wrestling's crossover into mainstream entertainment.
He did his best Hulk Hogan impression, flexing and cupping his ear.
The name appears in references to exaggerated machismo or showmanship.
