Hulk Hogan Once Again Asserts He Auditioned for Metallica but They Didn’t Respond
Hulk Hogan did not receive a call from Metallica after his audition.
American professional wrestler Hulk Hogan once again stated that he auditioned for the iconic heavy metal band Metallica but did not receive a response.
On June 11, 2023, a video was posted by FULL SEND Podcast Clips featuring Hogan’s revelation that he was on the verge of being cast for Metallica.
In the video, Hogan initially shared a story about his musical endeavors after returning to Connecticut in 1984 following his departure from wrestling.
He mentioned reaching out to Cindy Lauper and Dave Wolff, and together they decided to re-record some songs, including Rock and Roll Hoochie Koo. With Rick Derringer’s help, they successfully re-cut several tracks, which eventually went platinum.
Inspired by this success, he and his team decided to create another wrestling album called Piledriver, which also achieved platinum status. During this time, Simon Cowell became involved in the project and stayed with Hogan, eventually starting his work with the WWE.
Later in the video, the wrestler started recalling an event where he attended an award show in the UK. During the show, he found himself on stage with Jerry Hall, who happened to be living with Mick Jagger at the time.
Coincidentally, it was around the same period when the Rolling Stones’ bass player had quit, leading Hogan to consider the possibility of joining the legendary band. Seizing the opportunity, Hogan engaged in a conversation with Jerry Hall and offered to provide merchandise for her kids.
He also mentioned his experience playing bass and expressed his interest in sending a tape to Mick Jagger, hoping to join the Rolling Stones. However, despite his enthusiasm, Hogan never received any response or feedback after sending the tape.
Fast forward, the wrestler reflected on a time when Metallica needed a bass player. Excited by the opportunity, he imagined himself joining the renowned band, considering himself a perfect fit.
Hogan even created an audition tape showcasing his musical abilities and eagerly sent it to Metallica. However, to his disappointment, he never received any communication or feedback from them.
Reflecting on the experience, the wrestler expressed his belief that his fame as Hogan might have overshadowed his musical talent and hindered his chances.
When the host of the show asked if he possessed the skill to be part of such a top band, the wrestler confidently stated that he was familiar with the songs played by The Rolling Stones and could handle most of Metallica’s repertoire. However, he acknowledged the exceptional talent of the new bass player they had, praising their skills.
Hulk Hogan’s claim of almost joining Metallica sparks controversy
Following Hogan’s claim of auditioning for both The Rolling Stones and Metallica, numerous individuals came forward to dispute the truthfulness of his statements, asserting that his claims were not accurate.
During an appearance on the Howard Stern Show, Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich openly expressed his lack of recollection regarding Hogan’s claim of being asked to join the band.

Ulrich stated, “That one when that showed up two or three months ago, I was scratching my head over that one. I don’t know Hulk Hogan, I don’t know enough about him… I’m not a huge wrestling [fan]… I certainly have no recollection of doing anything with quote Hulk Hogan endquote.”
In a similar vein, when presented with Hogan’s claim of auditioning for Metallica, James Hetfield, the lead vocalist and guitarist of the band, responded with surprise. He remarked, “Huh? Definitely not. But anyway, it’s a good fit, yeah? [Laughs] He makes us look very small.”
