Paul Roma Slams Hulk Hogan, Claims His Act Is Phony
– During a recent interview with the Cheap Heat Productions Podcast, former WWE Superstar Paul Roma slammed WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan, saying he started buying into his own act and can’t wrestle. Roma also alleged an incident where WWE Superstars were meeting sick children in Detroit. At one point Hogan remarked, “We’re not getting paid for this,” when asked to meet another child. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):
Paul Roma on Hulk Hogan: “He can’t wrestle. All joking aside, he can’t wrestle. He was a great showman, they put a lot of money behind him and they made it work, right? Hogan started believing his own bullsh*t, you know what I mean? ‘Hey, I’m really beating Andre The Giant.’ No, you’re not. No, you’re not. ‘Hey guy, hit me with your finish, I’m gonna kick out of it,’ of course you are. You kick out of everybody’s finish, that’s what you do, but at the end of the day, you’re just a punk ass.”
Roma on when he checked out of Hulkamania: “They said, ‘Hey there’s another kid, can you come over here?’ to [Hogan], and he’s like, ‘What the hell? We’re not getting paid for this.’ So this is all bullsh*t? Say your prayers and take your vitamins?’ And you know what? It’s all bullsh*t. So again, there were very few that what they said, they didn’t practice what they preached. Let’s just leave it like that.”
