This is all based around accusing double-standards of the audience, not Hulk Hogan himself. Removing as irrelevant complaining.

* DoubleStandard: For decades, the Internet Wrestling Community has been having this for Hogan for one reason or another, justified or not. Not minding for a single second ''several'' of his most revered peers throughout history have been doing the same things they accused him for or even worse. This in no way justifies his most regrettable actions, but here are a few examples for your consideration:
** Hogan has been unrelentlessly written as a pro wrestler whose only justification for reaching the lengths he did were his physique and a little device known as "Creative Control Clause". This might be a case of selective amnesia as well, since Wrestling/BruiserBrody didn't needed one, in fact he '''ate it!''' Stinking events and abandoning promotions without further notice if things weren't going the way he liked it.
** In another instance, he's also been judged as an over-bloated performer who never should have been champion nor carried the biggest promotions on the States over his shoulders for so long. Lets consider people like [[Wrestling/EdFarhat The (Original) Sheik]], who owned his own promotion and placed himself in the same situation week in-week out. Or even [[Wrestling/JerryLawler Jerry "The King" Lawler]], possibly the pro wrestler with more titles in recorded history.
** Some others call him out character-wise for reaching ridiculous levels of NoSell. Forgetting this is an old established narrative resource in TheGimmick/ProfessionalWrestling that former {{Monster Hee|l}}ls like himself have always used (...namely Wrestling/TheUndertaker, Wrestling/BigVanVader, Wrestling/LegionOfDoom, Wrestling/UltimateWarrior and even Wrestling/{{Sting}}).
** And also lets not forget how he's been painted as the shrewdest political creature in business' history, one who never minded to bury into oblivion whomever he liked, possibly forgetting Wrestling/AndreTheGiant would even ''hurt people for real'' if he feared they were stealing his spot or did him any wrong, or Wrestling/TheKliq's backstage "Reign of Terror" back in the mid-90s.
