MIKE OVERALL
I remember getting up on Saturdays when I was about 11 and watching all my favorite stars of the WWF both in animation and in real life. Now, granted, this wasn't any great foray into writing or acting, but that didn't matter. What matters now is thinking back on that time in my life and realizing it wasn't too bad. Unfortunately, as I was getting into it, my "rents" made me take this stupid karate class that to this day I resent simply because there was this show I enjoyed and it was taken away from me. Ah well. The important thing is I have this awesome memory. Seems to me if Hulk can survive on the big and small screen for almost 30 years he must be doing something right.

Simple. They take some pop culture icons, and make an animated show out of them. This is the worst show I ever watched in my childhood. It weirded me out, it confused the heck out of me. I had nightmares from that. Hi. Welcome to "Matthew Rants". Today, this stupid show given by CBS. This show came on after MUPPET BABIES. I'd rather see ANIMALS ANIAMLS ANIMALS, or THE CHARLIE BROWN AND SNOOPY SHOW, than this junk. The voices don't sound like the real wrestlers. Brad Garret of 2 STUPID DOGS and EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND as the voice of Hulk Hogan. And Charlie Adler of COW AND CHICKEN, and TINY TOON ADVENTURES as the voice of Rowdy Rodney Piper. I had nightmares from this show. Don't get me started. That was one of the bad shows of the 80's. American IDOL, is bad and boring. THE GRIM ADVENTURES OF BILLY AND MANDY is bad. Billy is stupider than Patrick and has an I.Q. lower than Cosmo. Watch THE GRIM ADVENTURES OF BILLY AND MANDY, and you will loose 5 brain cells. Watch HULK HOGAN's ROCK AND WRESTLING, and you'll get nightmares. Don't worry. I'll see if I can get me DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS comment up.

A lot of youngsters looked up to Hulk Hogan in the 1980's and it was nice to have a cartoon for them to watch. Just like many 1980's cartoons, the stories were very altruistic and emphasized things such as loyalty, friendship and honour. Hulk Hogan was joined by his buddies such as Captain Lou Albano and Superfly Jimmy Snuka to battle Roddy Piper and his cronies.
The stories were quite moralistic throughout and I guess the moral was not to take shortcuts or cheat. In one memorable episode, the bad guys tried to cheat in a baseball game but the episode showed how cheaters do not prosper. Hogan and his buddies would always be there to help out those in need.I was an adult when I first watched this but I found it a great cartoon to watch. Go Hulk Go!

Rock 'n' Wrestling was fun entertainment for adults and children alike. Storylines were light and fluffy and great fun. There's no reason why a similar show made now with the latest WWF wrestlers couldn't work either. I'd watch it. Imagine Rock, Stone Cold, HHH, Kurt Angle and Undertaker in a cartoon together!
