thats the part I didnt get. Taker's political views didn't get him booed. And it can't just be racism cause thats been going on in wrestling for decades. I wonder if they booed him cause its the so called cool thing to do
“Cool thing”? Hogan wasn’t getting this amount of boos years ago. He went full on MAGA and had the nerve to wear a MAGA Powers shirt in LA. LA is a blue county. 1 + 1 = 2.

Plenty of wrestlers are MAGA, but Hulk went all in headlining at the convention for Trump, coming out to the octagon with Colby Covington and whatnot. On top of the other fukkery.

With Randy people still love the RKO and might have seen that he spoke out about Vince when stuff went down.

Taker is still seen as the locker room gawd and a stand up dude.

Hulk has been hard pressed to garner any offsetting goodwill over the years

Despite the Trump support, Taker isnt outed as a racist nor promoting the MAGA belief as much as Hogan. Can’t really compare the two situations even though they’re republicans.
Undertaker did a podcast AND commercial with Trump what are we doing here??? LMAO. Fans be afraid to say they pick and choose when to get mad at one of their favs.

HHH, Orton, Taker...we all know they MAGA but that's cool cuz they "not as blatant with their views that go against blacks and marginalized people like Hogan is" :mjlol:

I mentioned earlier that Taker isn’t heavy into the MAGA promotion, and yes I knew about those things you said.

Hulk was out here at Trump rallies saying shyt like crazy. At the RNC talking about leg dropping Kamala Harris. Dude really thought he was Teflon with wrasslin fans. He got booed in a blue county after doing all this shyt. The last time Hogan was here in LA, from what I remember, was Summerslam 2014 and he was cheered.

But like I said, if he returns in a red state, let’s see how it goes.

It's not just one thing. It's a lot of things that add up

Hogan hasn't been a "cool" figure in wrestling for more than a decade. What became cool was make fun him and make memes about his persona. He hasn't done a single thing that would make a crowd cheer for him in a long, long ass time.

Hogan being a blatant racist and killing the "childhood hero" image he projected to so many people hits a lot different than other episodes of this carny business being a fukked up place filled with racists and abusers.

He was in L.A coming off going full MAGA in a much more public and bigger platform than any other legend WWE has.


Taker on the other hand, is a conservative cac that fans still remember as the legend that gave them memorable moments and matches. He's certainly not ashamed to show the world his political views but he hasn't really done anything to taint those memories or directly offend the fans that care for him.

When was the last time anyone heard a positive Hogan story? It's been 10+ years of nothing but racism, wife-swapping, Trump Rallies, shoot interviews about him fukking everyone over and being a major part in the sex and drugs culture that built the Vince McMahon everyone learnt about last year... not a single positive tale. The guy is best friends with a man called Bubba The Love Sponge :scust:

Can't underestimate the power of Charlotte washing the Flair name either... nobody's given a fukk about Hogan's kids since 2006... if Ric's still around when Charlotte's career ends it'll be curtains for him too.

People keep saying it's because it's in Los Angeles, but Undertaker and Triple H are MAGA as well and got cheered. People are just tired of HOEgan. From the racism to his various lies he told over the decades being exposed, people don't fukk with Hogan anymore.

I don't even know why they brought Hogan out since the bulk of Raw's existence, he was either in WCW, TNA, or not involved in wrestling. What memorable moments does Hogan have on Monday Night Raw?

It's not about being MAGA

The generation that grew up w/his golden era is :flabbynsick:

Younger generations know him more from all the stories about him being a terrible person
