Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling is a 1985 CBS cartoon series developed by Jeffrey Scott, produced by DiC Entertainment and WWE*then known as the WWF business of Titan Sports, with animation by Studio Shaft, Hanho Heung-Up, and Wang Film Productions.The show went as followed: Hulk Hogan and a few other face WWF wrestlers (Junkyard Dog, Captain Lou Albano, André the Giant, Wendi Richter, Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka, Hillbilly Jim, and Tito Santana), along with "Mean" Gene Okerlund fought against a stable of heel wrestlers led by Roddy Piper including The Iron Sheik, Nikolai Volkoff, The Fabulous Moolah, Big John Studd, Mr. Fuji, and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan.In other words, it followed every other children's show plot at the time.Because of how long it takes to animate a cartoon, the show was often behind the times and ended in 1986. It's also worth pointing out that none of the wrestlers played their animated counterparts. Instead, the show featured well-known voice actors of that particular time — for instance, a young Brad Garrett voiced Hulk Hogan, and Charlie Adler was Roddy Piper — not counting that Mean Gene Okerlund and many of the aforementioned wrestlers themselves appeared in the live action skits.The series does not have an official DVD release (WWE owns the rightsnote Although DiC released some episodes on VHS in the 1980s, and WWE released some episodes on VHS in 2000, and put only one 15-minute episode on WWE Network), so your only option is through YouTube via member rocknwrestling. | |

Mythology Gag: Possible: In the "Rowdy Roddy Reforms" title card, Roddy is shown tossing daises out of a basket. The real-life Roddy Piper tossed daisies from a basket into the crowd in his debut match as a pro wrestler (against Larry Hennig). | |

Friend to All Living Things: Hillbilly Jim's central character trait. He usually has some barnyard critter tagging along who ends up being relevant to the plot. | |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business | |
| Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: In "Rowdy Roddy Reforms", Roddy is brainwashed into being a good guy. Not only does it cause his fellow heels much concern, even Hulk Hogan is puzzled that Roddy can be nice. Ironically, Piper would turn face just about the time the series ended, and one brief stint in 2003 aside, would be a face for the rest of his career. | |

Jerkass | |
| Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling / int_eb8e4fa8 | comment |
Jerkass: The heels, of course, are all creeps. Roddy Piper and Iron Sheik stand out in particular. Bobby Heenan only appears in "Driving Me Crazy" and "Rock N Zombies", but he's an underhanded cheapskate that even the heels find despicable — which perfectly summed up his kayfabe character. While he is on the good guys' side, Captain Lou is a bit of a selfish, abrasive jerk. | |

The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything | |
| Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling / int_ee7ed46e | comment |
The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: Despite being a show featuring face vs. heel pro wrestlers, they are rarely even in a wrestling ring. And in the rare instances that it happens, the cartoon never shows any wrestling happening (it's always right before a cutaway or after the fact). | |

Drives Like Crazy | |
| Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling / int_f96f188c | comment |
Drives Like Crazy: The Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff. This leads the former to ask why the latter can have a license. It's actually quite simple. Volkoff took his drivers test on frozen Siberian wasteland. There's nothing to hit for a thousand miles! | |

Have a Gay Old Time | |
| Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling / int_fa6bfde9 | comment |
Have a Gay Old Time: When this series was produced, "bimbo" was a gender-neutral term meaning a dummy or an airhead. Today, Captain Lou calling Moolah a "bimbo" would mean something totally different. Also, the aforementioned Circus Episode "Big Top Boobs". This uses the older definition of "boob" meaning a silly or foolish person. Today, the word has a different, more suggestive association. | |
