Young Hulkamaniac Fails With Shirt

You would be hard-pressed to find any child of the 80s and early 90s who doesn’t instantly recognize the lyrics “when it comes crashing down and it hurts inside.” With the popularity of professional wrestling arguably at its pinnacle at that time, Hulk Hogan was truly a pop culture icon, and quite frankly, still was up until his reputation took a nosedive. Even still, that entry music brings chills, the good kind, to all former Hulkamaniacs. Hearing it, one’s body calls up the sense memory of childhood excitement. This is why it’s important to note: there can be no substitutes for the Hulkster.

Even so, let’s give it up for this kid, who gave it a nice try, all things considered. It wouldn’t be a great leap to think that he considers Hulk Hogan a role model, and will use him as inspiration for his #FitnessGoals. Hey, as long as he never co-conspires with a tech titan to take down any antagonistic media empires, role model away, little tike.
