Hulk Hogan In the Ring

According to USA Today, Hulk Hogan recently asked a judge to grant him access to the $300,000 frozen assets from his divorce with Linda. He has $410,000 available and his bills are $312,000. As previously reported, Hogan recently underwent back surgery and with no deal in place for WrestleMania 25, there are no major paydays in his immediate future. A hearing is scheduled for Thursday regarding the request.

Yikes, you know the economy is in bad shape when the Hulkster is in trouble.

During Bubba the Love Sponge’s radio show on February 18th, a caller asked Bubba if Hulk Hogan would be appearing at WrestleMania 25 since a number of WrestleMania moment clips on WWE television seem to feature him.

We know what you’re thinking, strange question to ask a sponge… but as it turns out, Bubba is NOT a sponge. In fact, not only is he a person, Bubba is one of Hulk Hogan’s best friends. So that’s why a caller would ask The Sponge.

So what was Bubba’s response? (continue reading…)

In an interview with Eagle1057.com from Atlanta, GA, Hulk Hogan got a chance to discuss Vince McMahon’s negative reaction to his Celebrity Championship Wrestling program on CMT.

“All of a sudden, Vince McMahon raised his ugly head and thought we were threatening his company and he’s been doing everything he can to shut us down,” Hogan told the radio station. “We’re just a reality show.”

Hogan said he was intitially worried the celebrities wouldn’t take wrestling seriously because they were paid upfront, but he had a positive experience so far.

Hogan claimed even the great Regis Philbin inquired about being on the series when it was first announced, and now people from “all of the major companies” are calling wanting to be part of Celebrity Championship Wrestling.

Linda Hogan’s 19-year-old boyfriend Charley Hill tried to get a restraining order against Wrestling Superstar Hulk Hogan, but even a Florida court doesn’t believe Hulk is out to get Charlie and has subsequently denied the request.

Charley has claimed Hulk “dangerously followed” him in his car a couple weeks ago and “pulled up next to him and stared at him” at a stoplight – but as far as we know, that’s not a crime in any state.

Charley says he “fears [Hogan] will attempt to injure or kill him” because Linda is his girlfriend. The aspiring seaman also claims Hulk tailgated him and intimidated him on another occasion, and thinks Hulk is even more dangerous because he had weapons charges against him in 1979.

Hulk’s Hogan’s lawyer David Houston tells TMZ.com, “This is just another blatant attempt by Linda Hogan to try to defame Hulk Hogan’s character. We commend the judge on seeing through this ridiculous stunt and denying these baseless claims.”
