Hulk Hogan Reveals Suicidal Thoughts in New Book
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Break-ups, Divorce,
Hulk Hogan thought about killing himself when his marriage ended.
The legendary wrestler - real name Terry Bollea - got as far as picking up a gun to shoot himself when wife Linda Bollea filed for divorce after nearly 24 years together, following claims he had had an affair in 2007.
In his autobiography, My Life Outside the Ring, Hulk wrote: “There were times when I thought that a whole bottle of pills would go down easy. Then I noticed the gun in my hand. I was careless with it… I kept my finger pressed right to that trigger… and if I moved that finger an inch in the right direction I would have blown my brains out.”

UPDATE: Hulk Hogan’s Son Sentenced to Jail
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Legal Issues, Videos, Breaking News,
After injuring his friend in a car crash last year, Nick Bollea pleaded no contest today to felony reckless driving. The 17-year-old was then ordered to serve 8 months in jail. That sentence nearly equals the amount of time since the crash.
At the time of the incident, witnesses reported seeing Bollea drag racing against a friend. His speeds were apparently in the neighborhood of 100 miles per hour. Although Nick was quickly discharged from the hospital, the other occupant of his car was initially listed in critical condition. That friend, John Graziano, will now require lifetime medical care.
Nick’s father, wrestler Hulk Hogan, spoke on behalf of his son - and his injured friend - to the sentencing judge. (You can see that video after the jump.) After speaking about his personal relationship with Graziano, Hulk said his son should not be given any preferential treatment. He also said Bollea should not become a convicted felon. He hoped the judge not to give up on his son.
