Hulk Hogan brought pro wrestling into the living rooms of a whole generation of fans, but he also leaves behind a legacy that's not as simple as Hulkamania felt back then.

Neidhart says she considers Hogan a founding father of the WWE. Despite his victories in the ring, Neidhart remembers Hogan for the memories she has with him outside the ring. "My dad was very close friends with Hulk Hogan," she said. "Every year, Hulk would throw these big birthday parties and our family would go to them."
