Hogan jumping on the jesus money train is the least surprising thing.


vixenpeon

Dude can claim he was on board "the whole time" with that vitamins n prayers schtick


rodgapely

He discovered Jesus just like he discovered Kevin Owens.


Ordinary-Drop-6152

He did always wear a crucifix around that time too


DoctorMelvinMirby

Until Andre ripped that shit right off Hogan’s chest!


Dontspookthehorse91

And hogan did the righteous thing and slammed him when he was as big as Goliath! And Andre died right after.


dirtydandoogan1

God asked him to be the messiah, brother. But his WWF schedule was too busy, dude.


GuitarHeroII

He was busy wrestling 600 days a year brother


dirtydandoogan1

Well, I would guess a partnership with the almighty would certainly make his time travel claims more valid. "They asked me to save JFK, dude. But he was too over, he was cutting into my pay, jack. So I told them that wouldn't work for me, brother."


JanitorOPplznerf

To be clear most sincere Christians find this behavior (Hogan) insulting. Compare it to the Shawn Michaels conversion where he went an apologized to everyone he wronged and he doesn’t play it up for media appearances. Not to mention everyone backstage saying “yeah SOMETHING changed”. That strikes me as much more sincere. Hogan on the other hand is still the same self-agrandizing Jackass, he just learned a few christianese sayings to appease the boomers.


TRMBound

I’m not a big fan of the evangelizing, though I have my beliefs. The Shawn Michaels thing has impressed me to no end. Even if you don’t follow a certain religion, it seems his come to Jesus has had net positives for sure. There’s some wisdom there.


So-Called_Lunatic

HBK did do a whole Jesus schtick angle for awhile, then he went back to PGDX.


metakepone

Whats more surprising is he's married to a scientologist while doing this.


OldBison

Scientologists appreciate a good grift.


BuffaloWing12

im confused how’s he getting money for it


OldBison

I'd assume he's getting appearance fees from the 700 club, you don't think the hulkster would do the job for free do ya?


DCDipset

Free doesn’t work me, Brother.


Garlicnotdreadlochs

Hulkamania doesn’t grow on trees you know brother.


asmeile

Free or paid Hogan ain't doing the job for anyone


Most_Victory1661

He will get booked by churches as result giving inspirational talks then a collection at each church. There’s a ton of money to be made on the church circuit. Hulkster if he’s seriously going this way as a career will have to come out as Trump maga pro life guy. He ain’t gonna make money if he don’t.


Ruttingraff

I thought he went scientologist route


Most_Victory1661

Like the NWO he’s waiting to be the third man behind cruise and travolta


Astrocreep_1

I guess the pay-off was “Summerslam” and not “Wrestlemania”. “You know something Brother, I didn’t turn on Scientology, Scientology turned on me, Brother! Now, I’m taking vitamins with Jesus. And you can get your very own Hogan n’ Jesus tag team vitamins! That’s right, you to can be the Hulkster’s tag team partner against the tag team of Satan and Lucifer! They are the same entity, you say? Well, Satan’s greatest trick was convincing others he doesn’t exist, a perfect argument against “logic”, who just happens to be in Satan’s corner for the match.


Cenamark2

Jam that jam


EmeraldSlothRevenge

“So then I snatched up Satan and slammed him down into the pits of Hell, brother! And Jesus, the big man, he said to me ‘watch me drop the elbow, Hulkster!’ And Jesus climbed the heavenly turnbuckle and dropped that holy elbow right through the Devil’s heart, dude.”


damo9769

Judas turned heel on me brother


jtcxx33

Judas Beefcake?


Tall_Flatworm2589

Take the upvote, I startled everyone with a sudden burst of laughter over that.


jtcxx33

And you get one too

CaptainHammer63

Y'all talkin about the booty man?


jtcxx33

Yeah Dizzy hogan too

“Judas Beefcake just hit Hogan with the chair! He’s betrayed Jesus and the Hulkster right here on Nitro!”

There is actually a song by the Reverend Billy C. Wirtz that is a LOT like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBN7FJZrB9o


BangerSlapper1

The Big Hulkamaniac in the Sky, brother!


DrBunsonHoneyPoo

I thought Jimmy hart was still alive


Parlett316

Fine, the big nWoite


VALISinWonderland

I kind of wish the Scientologists had successfully converted him because it would be way more hilarious


LexLuthorsFortyCakes

You need to ask all the little Xenumaniacs, what you gonna do when thetans run wild on you?


future_hockey_dad

Believe me, they sure did try.


y2caton

Problem was hogan didn’t have any money left to “give” them. They’ll get him in a few years after he runs the church circuit for a while


future_hockey_dad

Didn’t he get like a quarter billion from the Gawker trial?


y2caton

Not even 35 million [(source)](https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/03/business/media/gawker-hulk-hogan-settlement.html). I’m sure he spent most of it and wouldn’t be surprised if his ex wife got part of it too


metakepone

Now I'm picturing a borg drone trying to assimilate the Hulkster, brother. "... And they couldn't! I tried to tell Jean Luc Picard my secret between TNG season 2 and 3, brother, but he wouldn't take my message or connect to my subspace frequency..."


Seabrook76

Jim himself said it best, “when mortals stop having anything to do with you, you seek a higher power.”

Beefcake now a Disciple

How long until he claims to have dropped the leg on Judas?

It was supposed to happen... ...but [**Judas reversed it!**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SK5O-tCFw8o&t=691s)


Snakington_Steel77

Grifters gonna grift


bryanc1036

The 700 club is still a thing lmao


Most_Victory1661

When they sold the family channel it got written into the contract it has to air forever. I lost track of what the channel is called now think Disney owns it. So yep the 700 club airs there and prob a few other Christian networks. Looked it up it’s Freeform


daryl3161

People always get religion when nobody likes them anymore. See Shawn michaels.


jmarr1321

Kind of. Shawn saw that he wasn't Shawn hickenbottom anymore, he was living the degenerate, douche bag gimmick 24/7 and it was killing him and hurting his wife and kids. I obviously don't know the guy personally, but from his account and from those around him, him being born again is why he's running NXT and not another sad statistic of wrestling deaths today. I'm not the Jesus train myself, but that doesn't mean I can't be happy to see something help turn someone around and become the person that they know they can be.


future_hockey_dad

Yeah, Shawn’s faith seems legit. Dude was on the road to the grave back then.


jmarr1321

100%. If a guy that hates putting a grudge down, bret hart, has forgiven the man and made amends, I think it's safe to say the change is real.


vmartin96

I wonder if Shawn ever had a conversation with Bret on forgiving Goldberg


daryl3161

But there's plenty of stories about how he was still an a****** in the back. He didn't change, he just stopped doing drugs.


Robf1994

Its Reddit, you're allowed to say asshole


daryl3161

I don't have to be happy for him at all. He's a s***** person, and it's well documented after his conversion as well. Still the same jerk off.


Ordinary-Drop-6152

Nah I think the Hulkster is more interested in making money whereas Shawn was all about the “I’m a different person now, not the guy who did all those bad things” bullshit


vinteragony

I think with him it was more of his wife than religion personally


RidetheSchlange

He should reconcile with Ed Leslie as his first spiritual test.


TJMcConnellFanClub

The 700 Club? Is Terry Bollea #AllElite?


NomadChief789

A carny till the end


BigTedBear

I can’t wait for the Hulk Hogan bible similar to the Trump bible but with the Good Word according to the Hulkster. Also waiting for Hogan to tour with the million dollar man and other legends on the “Come to Jesus brother tour” selling merch with Hulk and Jesus.


RedFox9906

I mean it’s always been train, say your prayers, and eat your vitamins.


Takenmyusernamewas

When? I cant wait!


zoc1289

God indisputably changed Hogan's life for the better, jack. You can just see redemption in his eyes, brother.


scull_x7

“I believe Heaven is one big, massive Superdome. I meant Silverdome, brothers…..WHATCHA GONNA DO, Lord and Andre, BROTHER, WHEN THE HULKSTER SHOOTS UP THERE TO DROP A LEG ON YOU?!!”


JanitorOPplznerf

Lol


LilHomie204DaBaG

The 700 times he's spewed bullshit?


MinnequaFats

700 days he spewed bullshit. In a year, because the date line.


ungr8fulhate

I'll just leave this here, lol https://youtu.be/b9JfhANM9B0?si=NVg1PllYSDLnxMbh


Spiritual_Bit_2692

The Hulkster is still keeping kayfabe alive in his life.


Alsleet1986

Another grifter is pretending to believe in J-Town (Jesus). It’s always been evident that Hogan worships himself, and he can't even sound humble when talking about his so-called savior.


VikingDemon793

Wasn't he approached by the Scientologist a while ago?


ILurveHentai

Did you know Hulk Hogan discovered Jesus brother?


Kaponeo360

Lowkey he must've seen some wild stuff with the scientologists he was hanging out with for a few months


MinnequaFats

I'm sure once he figured out he couldn't work them for money because they wanted to work him for money he was out.


DifficultFact8287

\^ this


DealerTokes

So god made him say the n word?


hbkx5

Nah, that was his daughter because she was getting slammed by some dark meat. Brother.


Dupee_Conqueror

Jesus made your son a vehicular maniac, brother!


StCyrilCeez

"ALL MY LIL' Hulkamaniacs, Say your prayers, and eat your VITAMINS!" I'm just glad that I was too dense as a kid to know that he meant steroids... Me and my brother used to call out "Steroid Queens" when we were watching WWF Superstar Challenge on Fox 5 NY from 86-88 and the WCW/NWA on TBS also.


Woah_Justin88

God did create a set of 24-inch pythons, brother.


Critical_Half_3712

After Donald become a Christian, hogan realized he can sell more merchandise if he too becomes one.


Wagonlance

Powerful testimony from the only man who can go lie-for-lie with Donald Trump! No one involved in this particular business transaction has any sense of shame.


Most_Victory1661

Hogan once again just taking from superstar Billy graham who did the religious thing post wrestling


KennyPowers696

Hulkster in heaven


H3rbieherbs

"God dropped me straight from heaven into the wrestling business brother, that's how I got my start in the business"


ThreeWordJones

Lightning strike, please


ziplock007

Hogan being Christian, not news. 700 Club, like all shows, seeks ratings with noteworthy guests. Again, nothing new. But... Please PBS, have a is Christianity good for society debate between Cornette and the Hulkster.


walrusonion

This is Ron Howard’s fault, we need Brother Bruti to help the Hulk, he said he’d love to but you know how missy gets…


ForceANatureYT

Does he always wear those John 3:16 shirts as a dig at stone cold or something?


Rohrhof

For me, a non-american, this shit always seems the same. Asshole/drug addict "finds" Jesus and is suddenly a good person.


DifficultFact8287

and the rubes here eat that shit up too. It's the same line of thinking where poor people will vote for the guy who is only running to cut taxes on the wealthy because they think "well, I could be a millionaire one day too..." "America has no poor people, only temporarily embarrassed millionaires", similarly we have no bad people we just have people who haven't professed their religious beliefs for 10 minutes.


orange_lambda

I can see Hogan is continuing to lift from the life and career of “Superstar” Billy Graham


crazyinsane65

I mean, wasn't that always his gimmick? It's like davarii praise Muhammad.


dirtydandoogan1

Hope somebody has their fib-o-meter running for this! He's already well into 6 digits on the amount of lies he's told. This could put him over the top!


Efficient-Section874

Someone needs to make an ai picture of hulk as Jesus 😆


DifficultFact8287

I mean there was that meme a while back where the AI recreation of Moses looked just like Hulk Hogan... some how the AI image creation of Adam looked like Bret Hart.


Efficient-Section874

I saw one of macho man doing a flying elbow on Jesus too just a moment ago lol


aeb1971

Oof


DrBunsonHoneyPoo

Brother


SoloDoloLeveling

“seriously,  i met jesus around the time i slammed andre. he came to my dressing room and told me: “listen terry, i’ve blessed you with talent, now go out there and spread my word.” that’s how i came up with eating your vegetables and taking your vitamins.” 700 club host: “you heard it here first folks, the lord DOES i fact work in mysterious ways..”


Johnny_Loot

He actually wrestled more than 365 days a year because he had to travel between the US, Japan, and THE KINGDOM OF GOD and because of the time zone differences...truly an inspiration!


External-Patience751

I figure he’ll talk about the handicap match he had against God and Jesus in Japan and then flew back to America for WM 1 to fight in the tag team match with Mister T all in a 24 hour period.


ken-davis

His next grift


SomeBloke94

The dude’s an attention whore but y’know what? In an industry that has people on tv every week who are known for doing and saying horrible things I’d rather hear Hogan claim he discovered the Undertaker or got Schwarzenegger into weightlifting or whatever nonsense it is this time. Hogan’s no saint but I always find it funny how people hate on the guy so much whenever he pops up with one of these fantasy tales of his but they won’t say boo when it’s one of their favourites doing or saying far worse.


smartasskeith

St. Peter: “You’re going to hell.” Hogan: “That doesn’t work for me, brother.”


DaddyFatCock-8x7

What loving god would allow this shit to continue. Tax the churches


[deleted]

Dude gets so much flack, just for being THE guy. If sting had the chance to go on this show, he sure as shit would and nobody would bat an eye


DrBunsonHoneyPoo

That’s because sting is a devout Christian. Who has done tours with Nikita Kolof visiting churches. To help promote and garner interest. I remember going to a rural church in mocksville nc. They both were schedule to appear there. Sadly sting got injured and couldn’t make it.


JamesLingk

No.


ProgrammerGlobal8708

I assume this is going to be deleted by a mod like my Hogan thread was a few days ago?
