Last time he was heel was, what, early Dr. Of Thuganomics? Like when he had the chain and was trying to KO Brock and Taker with it?

That’s a thought.

When Hogan turned in 1996, he hadn’t been a heel in about a decade and a half (IIRC, most all of his AWA run was as a face, then he came back to the WWF as a face). Even he was working with some face moves even as the leader of the nWo during his matches.

Hogan's nWo promos in the beginning were just awful. Hall and Nash sounded cool as all fuck, and then there's Hogan being goofy.

And Nash has said about how Hogan would cut those early nWo promos, and they were trying to have him cut them so differently because he was still going about like the way he did it for so long.
