font-size: 12pt;\">\u201cThe Macho Man\u201d Randy Savage (RIP) was a lot of things throughout his life; <a href=\"http:\/\/i1379.photobucket.com\/albums\/ah143\/Prong1978\/Randy%20Poffo%20Display_zpst6muz1t4.png\">professional baseball player<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/736x\/c5\/42\/4a\/c5424a17bf287cbcd8262b1265e66a72.jpg\">professional wrestler<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/ecx.images-amazon.com\/images\/I\/4145YX7GQ9L._SY300_.jpg\">professional rapper<\/a>, among other accolades.\u00a0 However, one of the less glamorous titles in his life, was <em>Hulk Hogan\u2019s bitch<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">I don\u2019t say this with any disrespect either, because I loved the Macho Man.\u00a0 But there\u2019s really no other way to describe the fact that no matter where Macho Man went, he was always, <em>always<\/em> the second fiddle to Hulk Hogan.\u00a0 Throughout his wrestling career, not only did Macho Man almost never defeat Hogan,* Macho Man won six world championships between the WWF and WCW; only to lose three of them to Hulk Hogan.\u00a0 With the last two in WCW, not even getting to hold the belt for more than 24 hours each time, before dropping it to Hogan the night after winning them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">*<em>honestly, I can\u2019t recall a single instance where Macho pinned Hogan, cleanly<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Even as a rapper, the one track that most people typically remember is the titular track <em>Be A Man<\/em>, where the chorus of the entire song is \u201cBe a man, Hogan,\u201d where Macho Man is repeatedly calling out Hulk Hogan in rhyme, but the point is clear that even long after their wrestling careers, Hogan was still implanted firmly in Macho\u2019s butthole.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">But anyway, back in 2011, Macho Man unfortunately died in a car accident.\u00a0 Around this time,** Hulk Hogan\u2019s life kind of began spiraling out of control, with his son being a fuckup, his gold-digging wife trying to take all his money, and his daughter\u2019s singing career stalling harder than a Ford Festiva.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">**<em>unsubstantiated, but I don\u2019t feel like checking my work, and it sounds better this way<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Some might even say*** that despite being the greatest tormentor of Macho Man\u2019s life, the void that Macho Man left in the life of the Hulkster might have been a greater tragedy than everything that Hogan did to Macho.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">***<em>entirely me<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">And since the death of Macho Man, Hogan\u2019s life has been basically, shit.\u00a0 For all of the aforementioned reasons I listed above, not to mention the tragic acceptance of Father Time wrestling the Hulkster further away from the industry that made him, not to mention when he got fired from the WWE because a horrifically racist rant was leaked out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">But much like the lessons of Hulkamania are meant to forge, one simply cannot keep Hulkamania down.\u00a0 At 62 years old, it takes a little bit longer than the time it took back in 1990, but Hulk Hogan will always <em>always<\/em> eventually Hulk Up and the comeback will begin.\u00a0 And unfortunately for the website formerly existing as Gawker, they were the jobber that thought they could suppress Hulkamania for good.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Little did they realize that fucking with Hulkamania is never a one-time affair, and that once one enters the stratosphere that circles around Hulkamania, death is pretty much the only way out of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Much like Hulk Hogan used to repeatedly kick Macho Man to the mat and drop the big leg over his head, it\u2019s apparent that Gawker, has become the new punching bag for Hulk Hogan to Irish-whip back into the turnbuckle for another running clothesline of Hulkamania righteousness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">There\u2019s a part of me that thought that defeating Gawker once, and pocketing a cool $140 million in the process might have been enough justice, but then I thought, <em>you know, fuck Gawker<\/em>.\u00a0 It\u2019s not like Hulk Hogan doesn\u2019t have a second claim to drag them into court again, and hopefully take down a second time, for more millions of dollars.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Sure, the things Hogan said in his racist rant were abysmal and terrible, terrible things to hear any human being say, and not even in my own black-humored mind, could I formulate some of the things that he said.\u00a0 But at the same time, they didn\u2019t have to be released for the sole reason other than to intentionally damage another professional\u2019s reputation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">As they\u2019ve done with other people in their heyday, Gawker deliberately released information to the public that just might not have been the best idea in the world to release.\u00a0 Except in this particular instance, they did it to Hulk Hogan, with hopes that it would weaken his stance in the courtroom, only for it fail, and like a good reversal, turn into fodder for this second lawsuit, that I certainly hope they\u2019ll lose, like the first one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">And Hulk Hogan\u2019s tasted blood now, having bent Gawker over once already.\u00a0 I certainly hope that Hulkamania doubles back, and runs wild on them all over again<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOL: Hulk Hogan suing Gawker;
