Terry Gene Bollea (born August 11, 1953), better known by his ring name Hulk Hogan, is an American actor, and semi-retired professional wrestler. He currently stars on the VH1 reality show Hogan Knows Best and is the new co-host of American Gladiators on NBC.
Bollea had mainstream popularity in the mid 1980s through the early 1990s as the all-American, working-class hero character Hulk Hogan in the World Wrestling Federation (WWF—now World Wrestling Entertainment) and was notable in the mid-to-late 1990s as "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan, a villainous gang leader, in World Championship Wrestling (WCW). Following WCW's fold, he made a brief return to the WWE in the early 2000s, revising his heroic character by combining elements of his two most famous personas.
Bollea entered the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005, and is officially a twelve-time world champion: a six time WWF/E Champion and a six time WCW World Heavyweight Champion as well as a former one time Tag Team Champion with Edge. He is also the winner of the Royal Rumble in 1990 and 1991.
