Hogan confessed. This raw admission highlights the overwhelming intimidation Andre commanded in the ring. In those initial years, Hogan described himself as just another young wrestler who lacked a deep understanding of the wrestling business.

For those first few years of knowing Andre, I was just another kid who didn’t understand this business.

The Hulkster’s early encounters with Andre were a harsh learning experience that underscored his naivety in the industry. However, Hogan’s perspective began to shift as he gained more respect and knowledge about professional wrestling.

Then, after eight years, we became friends. He even started to like me.

Hogan explained. This transformation in their relationship marked a significant turning point in his career. Hogan went on to praise Andre’s dedication to wrestling, noting:

He loved this business. And he protected it.

This mutual respect and camaraderie between the two wrestlers enabled them to create some of the most memorable matches in WWE history, including their iconic clash at WrestleMania III.
