Throughout his career, Hogan secured numerous championships, including five WWF titles and six WCW World Heavyweight Championships. His legendary 1988 clash with André the Giant set a U.S. wrestling television viewership record.

In 1996, Hogan reinvented himself by adopting the villainous “Hollywood” persona and leading the infamous New World Order (nWo) faction.

In addition to wrestling, Hogan had a successful acting career. He has appeared in films like Rocky III and Suburban Commando.

Furthermore, he has starred in TV shows like Hogan Knows Best. He also released a music album and appeared in various commercials.
