He won t make a dime in this business - WWE Hall of Famer didn t see star power in Hulk Hogan claims former manager

By Thomas Crack Modified 01 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Hulk Hogan is one of WWE's greatest ever superstars. WWE legend Jimmy Hart recently claimed that Jerry Lawler saw nothing in a young Hulk Hogan at the start of the latter's career. Before he became arguably the biggest star in wrestling in the 1980s, The Immortal One worked on the independent circuit for an extended period. He eventually made his first appearance in the Stamford-based promotion in 1979. Speaking on the MackMania podcast, Hart recalled his conversation with Jerry Lawler regarding the latter's first impression of Hogan. "I was doing something with Jerry Lawler for this wrestling thing and he invited me to come by the coliseum one night. He said, ‘You see this big guy in the ring right there?’ I said, ‘Oh my God, yeah who is he?’ He said, ‘Terry Bollea [Hulk Hogan]." The veteran further detailed his interaction with the former WWE commentator: "Terry Bollea is what they call him.’ I said, ‘He’s awesome, man.’ Lawler swears to me that he never said this, but he said, ‘What do you think of him? I have the chance to sign him and get ten percent of him.’ I said, ‘You’re going to do it, aren’t you?’ He said, ‘He won’t make a dime in this business.'"
