Kevin Nash reveals feeling bad for Hulk Hogan (via WWE)
While there was a time when Kevin Nash and Hulk Hogan hated each other, their friendship goes back decades. Both of them were a part of one of the most iconic factions in professional wrestling during the ’90s, the nWo. The 65-year-old recently expressed sympathy for his friend after his disastrous appearance on the inaugural episode of Raw on Netflix.
Speaking on his Kliq This podcast, Big Daddy Cool said that Hogan was beaten up and in bad shape after all his years in the industry. The Hall of Famer also revealed that his back was extremely messed up. There were a lot of screws and bolts removed from him. However, he was a tough guy and came out to cut his promo regardless. Kevin Nash said that he felt terrible for his friend.
Hogan made his entrance on the inaugural episode of Raw with Jimmy Hart, who was waving an American flag in the background. The crowd at the Intuit Dome began booing the Hulkster loudly and relentlessly. The 71-year-old was visibly taken aback by this. Regardless, he cut a promo, promoted his beer company, tore his shirt off, and walked off.
I felt bad for him, but at least he got a reaction. I saw the hardware they removed from his back. It was insane, the amount of screws and bolts they took out.

Racist allegations against Hogan started circling the Internet nearly a decade ago, in 2015. He was caught on tape hurling racist expletives. However, as Mark Henry said, he hasn’t made much of an attempt to fix things. In fact, the wrestling legend was making racist remarks toward Kamala Harris just a few months ago.
Booker T reacts to Hulk Hogan getting booed out of the building during the inaugural episode of Raw on Netflix
A Hall of Famer being booed out of the building so mercilessly due to shoot reasons is unprecedented in WWE. Thus, it is no wonder that this incident had the entire wrestling world abuzz. Speaking on his Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T also reacted to this fiasco.
King Booker said that growing old was tough on everyone. Furthermore, today’s young generation is much different compared to what it used to be. Today’s audience perhaps had never seen Hulk Hogan do his magic, such as the Andre the Giant match. Even if they had, it no longer had the same appeal today as it did back then.
They’ve perhaps never watched Hulk Hogan do his thing. They’ve never seen the Andre the Giant match. I can see being disconnected from the fans and going out there and not have that magic today in 2025 than it did in 1985. It’s a different world now.
