Hulk Hogan's impact on wrestling was far larger than anyone before or after. Look at what wrestling was before Hulk-a-mania. Look at it during and after. Hulk Hogan turned heal well after his prime and WWE went to number 2 in the ratings. Respect to the Undertaker, but he's not had the impact of Hogan.

[@saikotroy7325]

@@HercuLync Friends you are probably explain your own opinion. But WWE was incomplete without the versatile character of Undertaker. From the Darkness to American baddass. Both equally playing good and bad character. Gifted us real thrill in wrestlemania in every match without wrestling. Here wrestling is not important, thrill was important. Look up his time the golden area of wrestling. Where every Wrestler had a impression but he was totally different. So how can you say that anybody had greater impact than him.

[@HercuLync]

@@saikotroy7325 Because Hulk Hogan took wrestling from house shows to the main stream. Hulk-a-mania was real. Hogan didn't complete the WWE, for years he was the WWE. Undertaker is a favorite of every wrestling fan, but Hogan is known by everyone. Hogan was bigger than the WWE and he proved it when he went to WCW well past his prime and sent a WWE with Stone Cold, the Rock, and the Undertaker to number 2. No one else is wrestling could have done that. Even if that hadn't happened, anyone that lived through peak Hulk-a-mania knows that there has never been anything like that in wrestling before or since.

The question actually is whos the biggest star in the history of the WWE. Biggest star in WWE not to the whole world. The Undertaker has got to be the most well known WWE wrestler in history, nobody else has done more or gained a legacy for the buisness like he has. Hes cemented his status as a legend by being one of the greatest mythic characters on tv! Whenever someone hears about wrestling, a chill always runs down their spine at the thought of Taker. Hes the complete package of what the best of the best should be and theres never gona be better than him!
