HULK HOGAN says he “couldn’t live with himself” unless he has one final match in WWE – and he wants it against Vince McMahon at WrestleMania.
The 66-year-old, arguably the most-famous wrestler on the planet, is back with the company he shot to stardom with as Hulkamania ran wild throughout the 1980s and early 90s.
Although he will not be grappling himself, the veteran Hall of Famer will captain a team against one led by Ric Flair at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia on October 31.
Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, last competed inside the squared-circle for TNA in 2013 and his final WWE match was against Randy Orton at SummerSlam 2006.
But now the icon has stunned fans by revealing he has asked WWE’s owner McMahon for one final match after he vowed to “get in the best shape of my life” after upcoming back surgery.
Speaking to the LA Times, Hulkster said: “I talked to Vince, and I said I really don’t know if I could live with myself knowing my last match was with TNA [Total Nonstop Action Wrestling].
“If I can get fixed, I pray I can have one more match.
“I told Vince, ‘When I get through this back surgery, I’m going to get in the best shape of my life and we’re going to talk about me having one last retirement match’.”
And he has perfect last-ever opponent in mind – none other than WWE’s CEO.
The two have already clashed once before at WrestleMania 19, but Hogan is desperate for another one-on-one with the 74-year-old billionaire.
The Hulkster added: “I’d love for it to be against Vince. I had such a great time with him in the ring at WrestleMania 19.
“I had no idea what to expect from him, but he’s a great bad guy. His timing is great.
“I loved wrestling him, but everything he does hurts. When you’re in the ring with someone and they’re hurting you, you kind of pinch them on the wrist, and the whole match I was doing that to Vince.
“I was like, ‘Vince, take it easy!’
“Everything he does hurts, but I’d like to get in the ring with him one more time for my last match. That would be perfect.”
