10 Worst Hulk Hogan Pay-Per-View Matches Ever

4. Vs. The Undertaker - WWE Judgment Day 2002

After Hogan had dethroned Triple H for the Undisputed Title at Backlash, WWE hoped they could ride a red-and-yellow wave in the ratings and that the Hulkster's Indian summer would result in some big PPV buy rates. 

While the live crowds still worshiped the ground he walked on, viewers were actively tuning out in droves (though that could also be attributed to the brand split and poor writing). 

As a consequence, WWE decided to take the title from him in his first major pay-per-view defense. The feud between The Undertaker and Hulk Hogan was one of the most laughable in history, centred around the two men being super-tough biker dudes, dude! 

To give them some credit, they did try on the night, but there just wasn't anything there. Hogan looked old and tired and 'Taker wasn't exactly in his prime during this whole Big Evil phase, either. 

The quality of the contest is summed up by Hogan taking two of the absolute worst Chokeslams in history, the second one doing the job for the Deadman after Vince McMahon interfered.

Again, the match wasn't a total train wreck or anything, but you expect more from performers with the characters and legacies of Hogan and The Undertaker and this didn't belong anywhere near a pay-per-view main event. 

WWE, sensing that the Hogan well was running dry, took him out of the title picture and started using him to put over the likes of Kurt Angle, Brock Lesnar and Edge (as his tag partner) soon after.
