Ted Dibiase, the WWE Hall of Famer, recently made some interesting comments about two legendary wrestlers, The Ultimate Warrior and Hulk Hogan, during an interview on his podcast, Everybody’s Got a Pod.
When asked about The Ultimate Warrior’s wrestling abilities, Dibiase expressed his opinion that Warrior was not a good wrestler. He stated, “No, he was good at bodybuilding. Maybe that was just one of those things where Vince [McMahon] said, ‘I’m going to prove that I can make anybody a star.’ Because this guy, you know, obviously he was dedicated and it takes a lot of work and discipline to build a body like that. I get that, and I can appreciate that. That doesn’t make you a [good] wrestler.”
Dibiase also discussed Hulk Hogan and praised his promo skills. He said, “Who determines who gets pushed and who doesn’t? Right? Well, who’s going to get the time, the Hulkster was great on the mic. You know, he wasn’t bad in the ring, but I’m sorry, he was really good on the microphone.”
These comments from Dibiase have sparked a discussion among wrestling fans, with many sharing their own opinions on the matter. Some agree with Dibiase’s assessment of The Ultimate Warrior, pointing out that his in-ring skills were often criticized during his career. Others argue that Warrior’s larger-than-life persona and intense energy made him a captivating performer.
As for Hogan, his promo skills are widely regarded as some of the best in the history of professional wrestling. His ability to command the crowd and deliver memorable speeches is a testament to his charisma and showmanship.
It’s important to note that these are Dibiase’s personal opinions and may not reflect the views of everyone in the wrestling community. Wrestling is a subjective art form, and what one person considers a good wrestler may differ from another’s perspective.
