12-time World Champion and 8-time WrestleMania main eventer is just barely scratching the surface when trying to summarize the life and pro wrestling career Hulk Hogan left behind. However, Netflix has been trying their best to do just that for about a year in the form of a Hulk Hogan docuseries.

Hogan had a rollercoaster of a legacy filled with the highest of highs and the lowest of lows, and one of the most charismatic people to ever live is set to have his life chronicled for Netflix's 200 million subscribers in the future.
