Hulk Hogan has performed in many movies, but it was his first cinematic role as “Thunderlips” that he didn’t….well he didn’t suck. Nobody will ever confuse Hogan with Pacino (or even Pauly Shore), but the Hulkster showed more acting skill and range in those five minutes in Rocky III than he did in all his other roles combined. It made Hulk Hogan a star, and inadvertently launched the wrestling boom in the 1980’s. Looking back, this could be a legitimate dark horse candidate to make our Hall of Fame.
