Iconic Hulk Hogan Rival Calls Him a ‘Liar’ on Social Media

Hulk Hogan competed in the ring against several individuals. He has shared some great rivalries with some of the very best in the business. But one rivalry that stands out from the rest is his never-ending rivalry with The Iron Sheik.

Even after so many years since their historic match at the Madison Square Garden, it looks like the rivalry still exists. If you have been following The Iron Sheik on social media, you will know exactly why.

In the past, The Iron Sheik has often fired shots at Hogan, and even called him a Jabroni. But this time, he indirectly called The Hulkster a ‘liar’.

Recently, Bovada on Twitter asked which is the most intense rivalry in sports. In reply to this question, The Iron Sheik answered, “HULK HOGAN VS TELLING THE TRUTH”.

Hulk Hogan never really replied to such tweets from The Iron Sheik on social media. But The Hulkster will definitely not like to read such things about himself.

Previously, The Iron Sheik has taken a dig at Hogan on different occasions like Christmas or Super Bowl LVI. Thus, The Iron Sheik clearly hates Hulk Hogan. These tweets are not really a surprise for the fans, and there might be more such tweets in the future.

Why does The Iron Sheik hate Hulk Hogan so much?

Only The Iron Sheik can give us the right answer to this. But it looks like The Iron Sheik is still holding a grudge for his loss against Hulk Hogan in 1984 at the Madison Square Garden.

In 1984, Hogan defeated The Iron Sheik to win his first WWE Championship. During that match, Hogan did the unthinkable.

Several individuals lost to The Iron Sheik after he had put them in a Camel Clutch. But on that night at the Madison Square Garden, Hogan refused to submit to The Iron Sheik’s Camel Clutch.

DIVE DEEPER

Hogan got out of the camel clutch and successfully pinned The Iron Sheik for the win. It seems like The Iron Sheik is yet to get over this defeat. And that might be one reason behind all his tweets related to The Hulkster.

Do you think The Iron Sheik’s loss to Hulk Hogan is the reason behind such tweets? Or there can be some other reason? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
