HONKY TONK MAN ON HULK HOGAN 

People on here saying that the HTM is just bitter and hating on everyone. To me he comes across as a straight talker and maybe there are just a lot of scumbags in the business that's all. I can definitely believe that there are. A lot of egos trying to get the very few top spots in wrestling. I don't know why that would surprise anyone.

🎵I got long sideburns and my hair slicked back coming to your town in a pink Cadillac 🎵

I can't get enough of this interview. HTM tells great stories, and tells them so well!

Damn I am STUNNED. As much as I hear people bury Hogan, it's crazy to see HTM speak so nicely about him and that Hogan treated him so well.

Honey tonk man is a legend very wise guy he really understands the business

greatest IC champ of all time

HTM is for real; when he has good things to say about other wrestlers, he very well does it

He's a straight shooter I love hearing these ole stories. It shows you that success doesn't happen overnight and that these guys had to go through a lot to get to where they got. Imagine wrestling in a small TV studio or High School Gym where you got maybe 30, 50 to 100 fans to 92,000 fans in Wrestlemania in Detroit back in 92. That had to be a rush, it's a tough business especially when you dont have a binding contract and your going town to town.

Oh shit...Hulk and Brutus used to be a tag team?? Boulder Brothers..I've never heard that.

Hulk was very loyal to Honkey getting him into WWE with Jimmy Hart and also WCW. -Paid in full, and wrestling is a tough business. Just having Jimmy Hart push you is huge.

Moral to the story, always treat people good cause you never know when you need them in life.

HTM is awesome..and a real straight shooter

Ron Fuller Tennessee Stud!!! One of the all time greats.

1:40 '.....me with long blonde hair....' No, i can't even imagine that

I think a lot the wrestlers who speak ill of Hogan from back in the day are people who were jealous of him and the power he had in the company given his importance to it. He made them all money as long as they were on his card. Greg Valentine sings Hogan's praises too.

The best IC champion

You cannot say his name without saying it like his theme does. "It's the Honky Tonk man!"

To this day I don't know why all the hate on beefcake. .he was great.idk

Is that Ace Ventura : Pet Detective?

Hulk hogan is awesome

This reminds me that in some of HTM's early matches he was actually a face and the announcers would bill him as a "good friend of Hulk Hogan" and I guess there was some truth to it!

As always, awsome video

Holy crap! HTM actually didn't trash a guy. That is how you know this is honest.

Sounds like Hogan did him a solid. For once.

Much Respect Honky Tonk Man!!!

Soooo... Now it all makes sense. HTM had previously mentioned that Hogan suggested to Vince that HTM should hold the IC belt, but i had the impression Hogan barely even knew who HTM was and sort of picked the first guy he saw.

According to Bruce Prichard this is true, hogan got him hired. He never forgot that honky helped him all those years earlier so he repaid the favor

2:30-I love how ppl criticize Bischoff for criticizing sting cuz he didnt get a tan, but EVERY interview it seems like with Hogan and how great Hogan was, the “Big Tan” is brought up like it was so important!

The Honky Tonk Man is a great storyteller and I like these short videos.🙂👍

Love this guy

I'm sure that Hogan deserves some of the rep he gained over the years, for being a bit of a jerk, or being self-serving, whatever. I'm sure some of that is true. But I've also heard many stories about him making guys, putting guys over, going to bat for guys to Vince etc. Of him being a nice guy, and especially being nice/good to his fans. It's just like his drunk "racist" rant business. Did he say some stupid shit once, that someone was rude enough to catch on video and sell? Yeah. But people are usually shades of gray, not just black and white. Hogan is no different. I don't think he's a saint by any means, but I think he's done and been good in his life too. I think he's just a person, like any other. Could he have been more of a stand up guy, especially in WCW? Probably. But WCW also shouldn't have given guys like him the power over their own careers that they did.

Loved the honkey tong..

Surprisingly I'm a new fan of wrestling, but please tell me that he's in the Hall of Fame.

Verne Gagnes biggest regret is Hogan not winning the belt. Stupid move.

Who is this guy, and what did he do to the real HTM?

The Honky Tonk Man Said Very Nice Things About Hulk Hogan.

I am surprise he is talking nice about Hogan he usually doesnt

Honky craps on a lot of guys but he really seems to like Hulk.

Cool, cocky and bad...

Give cred where cred is dude tonky

The Boner Brothers

As a gay vet I have a lot of love for old Honky..used to love him in his tight ol suit shaking them hips

HTM = worst dude ever
