The Undertaker and Hulk Hogan's Real Life Heat Explained
Did The Undertaker really injure Hogan?
Taker was shaken up after the loss, and went on to talk to Shane McMahon. Shane assured him that there was no such case of injury to Hogan, as the footage clearly showed that his head was nowhere near the mat.
Undertaker himself went through the footage, and was shocked to find that what Shane told him was exactly true, and Hogan had cooked up his injury drama all the way throughout. He went and confronted Hogan for doing this, and Hogan said that his neck was jammed due to the Undertaker putting his knees around his head too tightly which led to the injury.
Taker didn't escalate it further, but it had dawned on him what Hogan was up to. Four years ago, in an interview with ESPN he said, “"'Okay,' I kind of realized I know what you're all about, and that's all I needed."
However, despite all of this happening between the two, Undertaker never let his emotions get the better of him, and instead he maintained a professional conduct.
Ten years later, the two met once again in WWE for a title match in 2002. But by then, the dynamics had changed. The Undertaker had achieved locker room ‘leader’ status and was no longer a rookie. Hogan had returned from WCW, but was nearing his retirement.
And The Hulkster had to once again drop the title to The Undertaker. He went on to become Vince McMahon’s most respectable locker room wrestler, and continues to this date.
Hogan didn’t have much to do after 2002, apart from his WrestleMania rivalry with The Rock. He left the company, and returned in 2005 and stayed for two years. After that he made only sporadic appearances in WWE, and quit wrestling after 2012.
