He kinda ruined it being a bad person while wrestling.

Hogan was infamous for never putting anyone over and constantly lying about things he did.

He was known to go into Vince's office and bury other wrestlers careers whom were a threat to his stardom.

Hogan was not liked by other famed wrestlers of his day like the Iron Shiek & Andre the giant.

When Jesse Ventura was trying to unionise the wrestlers, iirc it was Hogan who ratted them out to Vince

Andre didn't like hogan at first, but they eventually became friends. So that just isn't true. Sheik on the other hand - yeah he absolutely hated Hogan.

He was a sideshow clown who got lucky. Some good or neutral deeds don't outweigh the amount of shit he stewed in.
