Hogan as part of the attitude era would have been weird. Well I guess he was (early 2002). Early '02 is definitely not considered a part of the Attitude Era. I like to think of WM17 as the grand series finale of the Attitude Era, though others dispute that it was the week prior to WM when Vince purchased WCW that marked the end of the era. Just sayin'.

Wrestling is a business and Hulk Hogan is a brand. Hogan protected himself and always made sure that his brand name was never killed off by a promoter. Compare how Hogan protected his career to how Flair let every promoter rape him. Flair bitched and moaned about it all through his book. Getting the top two companies into a bidding war during the height of wrestling's popularity in the 90's, cannot be seen as anything other than GREAT BUSINESS SENSE! As far as being a businessman in pro wrestling, Hogan should ALWAYS be seen as the role model that people strive to be. i don't like your kind.

Not exactly...For the most part the only promoters that screwed him over was Herd and Bischoff. When Herd was screwing him over he left for WWE. (Which was great business) and when Bischoff screwed him over contractually he COULDNT get out. Hogan might have been a better business man but Flair was much more loyal to his company
