80s Hogan should be near the bottom along with 07-08 Cena and 09 Orton. If someone booked a wrestler today likes Hogan people would get sick and tired of that shit real quickly.

>>2876613
Utter autism gibberish

>>2876622
The closest thing to Hogan we have had recently was 08-11 Cena which any 18+ person will agree had some of the most boring booking ever.

>>2876628
08 Cena wasn't that strong

2007 was his reign of terror

>>2876613
You're right in that 80's guys could never get away with their shit if they wrestled today, but that doesn't disqualify Hogan from being GOAT or at least the top 2 at the bare minimum

>>2876636
Revival's entire schtick is "80s throwback" and they got over in smark central

>>2876632
True, my bad that should 07-11
>>2876636
Maybe on the basis of how popular his 80s stuff was. NWO Hogan was far more interesting, and even he overstepped his boundaries a bit with stupid shit.
>>2876652
Revival isn't based on 80s WWE, they are based on 70s/80s territory stuff like AWA/NWA where the matches were far more intriguing rather than something cartoonish.

No one is going to take you seriously.

Get off the fucking board.

c-drones need to leave

>>2876751
Let me guess you think Hogan in 95 was bad as well even though his shows consistently outdrew any other WCW show without him, amirite?

>>2876751
Just because smarks don't like it doesn't mean it wasn't successful or didn't made money

>>2876665
80s WWF being too cartoonish for modern times says more about 80s WWF than modern fans.

Who gives a fuck what they drew.
They were creatively bereft and not entertaining to watch.
Quit this talking metrics bullshit trying to sound smart.
The show qualities were ass.

>>2876770
If we don't give a fuck what they drew then no one would put Hogan near the top because his act in the 80s sucked ass.

>>2876777
No, it didn't. Hulkamania was fucking BASED

Just say you're sorry and go to your room

>>2876782
If you think one magazine accounts for the entire wrestling fanbase, you're an idiot.

>>2876702
This is a discussion of greatest OF ALL TIME. Anyone that can't match up to the standards at all of the time after them isn't worthy of being called that.

Ric Flair is more deserving of GOAT. Fantastic in his time at the top of his realm of wrestling. In ring aged well because despite some goofy stuff, he's still very technical and a great storyteller. Unlike Hogan's repetitive catchphrase promos, Ric's promos weren't so one-note so those aged well, too.

In terms of their best or their strongest?

Cause if it's their best, I'd fix some of those to

>2006 Batista
>2015 Cena
>2004-2006 Orton

>>2876853
Wasn't even the best finalist of the G1 Special

>>2876847
You can only judge talents by the standards of the times.

>>2876871
Hogan was repetitively one-note even in his day

>>2876707
Fuck off to /b/ with your lazy bait.
