7. Hulk Hogan
You know you’re in for a surprise when you see Hulk Hogan in a movie. He’s either there to throw some things around, scream at kids or give you a knuckle sandwich. But what if I told you that Hogan became a pro-wrestler by simply looking the part? Before he was the great Hulk Hogan, he went by the name of Terry Gene Bollea and Bollea only had one dream; becoming a rock star. One night while Bollea and his band were preforming a gig, two wrestlers happened to stop by and watch the show. Since Bollea had dropped out of college to pursue his bassist career, he had started lifting weights in his free time. The wrestlers instantly noticed Bollea’s physique and reported back to their coach Hiro Matsuda. Within a few weeks, Bollea exchanged his bass for some weights and just like that Hulk Hogan was born.
