Hulk Hogan recently did an interview with The Miami Herald where he discussed a variety of topics. Below are a few highlights from the interview where Hogan talks about the nWo’s impact on the wrestling business, Ronda Rousey’s connection to the late Roddy “Rowdy” Piper, his thoughts on a WWE return, and more.

On nWo’s effect on wrestling:

“The nWo — Hogan, Hall and Nash — kind of like changed wrestling and kind of like made a pivot, where everybody used to cheer for the good guys, and we kind of made it cool to cheer for the bad guys. So, the way we changed wrestling’s history and the course of the train of thought that the fans have now, I think is attributed a lot to the nWo’s reign of terror. I think the nWo — definitely the three original founding members — deserves a spot in the WWE Hall of Fame.”

On the connection between Ronda Rousey and Roddy Piper:

“I think it was a really, really cool situation that Ronda went to Piper first, out of respect, and asked Roddy, if she could use his name,” Hogan said. “Piper was grateful that she was asking, and he was just overwhelmed that she would want to represent it on that level…”

On his thoughts about returning to the WWE:

“Well, never say never. That would be a dream come true for me to go back home. I started many, many years ago in 1977, 78 for Vince McMahon Sr., and I’ve been back-n-forth several times. So I’d like to go back one last time and stay there and never leave home again…”
