Hulk Hogan's Rock And Wrestling


I remember watching this terrible show every saturday and hoping that they would actually wrestle but they never did. I suppose that's ok and not entirely unexpected considering that Vince doesn't really seem like a fan of in ring action.

The show ran for a couple of seasons back in the 80's, 85 and 86 to be exact, for a total of 26 episodes. The Main idea was that the good wrestlers lead by Hogan of course try and stop the bad guys, lead by Rowdy Roddy Piper from doing bad stuff. Not much in the way of story but you know, it's an 80's cartoon about the WWF. 



Huh, i was just reading the Wikipedia on the show and learned that none of the wrestlers did there own voices. That's weird. I could have sworn, well I remembered that they did. I was a kid at the time, What do you want from me? Brad Garrett actually did the voice of, Hulk Hogan. That's wild. Garret was Raymond's brother on that stupid show with Ray Romano. Check out the full list here... 

It wasn't a great show by any stretch but at the time there wasn't any wrestling on TV around the Nor Cal area. KTVU, our local channel 2 would pick up WWF Superstars later and Channel 36, KICU would get the NWA on Saturday nights but at the time neither one was on yet so I was stuck watching this crap fest to get my weekly grappling fix. When you consider how much WWE is on TV nowadays it's crazy to imagine a time when you would actually want MORE then there already was.  Strange but true. There was such a time.
