Hulk Hogan appeared on Buzz Radio in Little Rock, Arkansas. Hogan said he was going to be on the show last week, but he was having his sixth back surgery.

Hogan said he started going by the name Terry "The Hulk" Boulder after appearing on a show with Lou Ferrigno (The Incredible Hulk). He told the story of how Vince McMahon Sr. wanted him to die his hair red, and Hogan said he would have gone bald if he tried it.

He called Ric Flair his idol. "He's got women, he's got money; he's a full blown nut. I want to be like Ric Flair when I grow up." He said Jack Brisco and Dusty Rhodes were the two wrestlers that inspired him to get into wrestling.

Hogan also touched on WWE being PG while TNA was more of a violent product, the steroid scandal of the 90s, and the fact that his marriage was "already destroyed" before his reality show. He found out later "she (Linda Hogan) was attracted to young kids."

Twill's Two Cents: Cool interview. I'm not sure which host was which, but one of them did not know much about the business, but the other guy did know his stuff. Hogan did say Randy Savage was the best wrestler he worked with in terms of making money. Andre The Giant was his favorite person to work with.
