Hulk Hogan was the icon before the term got thrown around like the superkick. Hogan is widely considered to be one of wrestling’s all-time greats – and why wouldn’t he be. The man took wrestling to unprecedented heights of popularity.

The WWE Hall of Famer was recently spotted partying with another wrestling legend. He and Ric Flair got together for a night out in Tampa earlier this week. Pictures and clips from the hangout made it to social media.

At one point during all the partying, Hogan grabbed the mic to give a shoutout to the two-time WWE Hall of Famer and put him over as the greatest wrestler of all time. He then proceeded to name two other goats.

“Well, let me tell you something brother! I want everybody in here, on the one, two, three, to give me a ‘Wooo!’ for the greatest wrestler of all time. One! Two! Three! Wooo! Hey, thank you guys for coming out.

“This is the greatest wrestler of all time, Ric Flair. In honor of the third greatest wrestler ever, ’cause he’s #1, I’m #2. In honor of the third greatest wrestler of all time, that no good Rattlesnake, Steve Austin. Somebody give me a hell yeah!”

Hogan has stated on multiple occasions that he considers Ric Flair to be the greatest wrestler of all time. The two were originally supposed to main event WrestleMania VIII but Vince McMahon ultimately decided against it. You can read Ric Flair’s take on the supposed WMVIII main event right here.
