Back to the topic at hand. Hulk Hogan got his name I guess before wwe started trademarking names. It seems to me that wrestlers who got their names before the mid 80s own them I.

WWE trademarks are pretty loose, anyway. They seem perfectly content if you just change a tiny little bit of the name, but keep the entire gimmick whole and pretty much do the same thing. Look at Mr. Anderson, for example. He's got the exact same gimmick and only changed a part of his name, and they're cool with it. If Hulk had had to go to WCW and get a new name, they probably would have just switched to Hollywood Hogan immediately and everything would still be the same.

Yeah, wrestlers work A LOT. You can guess who won, with it being a Marvel book. Vince McMahon has clearly had some naming issues in his career. Hulk Hogan is retired from wrestling now, if not completely on a voluntary basis, but his name remains iconic.

He's in the WWE Hall Of Fame again, and he's even the subject of an upcoming biopic with another star well-known for his association with Marvel ; Thor himself, Chris Hemsworth, will be playing the legendary wrestler.
