Hulk Hogan and Richard Belzer

[Vice honcho room temperature]

So there's an article on the NY times from 1990 where they reported on the legal precedings with great lines such as

Questioned by lawyers from Gaston & Snow, Mayer, Brown & Platt, and Lester, Schwab Katz & Dwyer - all representing the musclemen and their managers - Mr. Belzer's deposition dragged on five days. Had his wife ever appeared nude in Playboy? Had he been physically abused as a child? Had he attempted suicide, used heroin, contracted AIDS or watched professional wrestling?

Or my favorite

Early last year, Mr. Grutman, in turn, walked Mr. Hogan through his transmogrification from Terry Gene Bollea to ''Sterling Golden'' to ''Terry Boulder''to ''Terry (The Hulk) Boulder'' to Hulk Hogan, and from what Mr. Grutman called ''just another villain'' to ''the man from Krypton, exemplification of the good, the true and the noble.'' He sought to psychoanalyze the Hogan character, to see whether it was modeled after St. Francis, Jack Armstrong, the Central Park ''wilders'' or Hitler.

That was too much for Mr. Hogan's lawyer, Ted Dinsmoor of Boston's Gaston & Snow. ''I object to bringing Hitler into this,'' he declared.

If they can do a TV series dramatizing the OJ Simpson trial on American Crime Story, I demand that this trial be the next one they do.

In his deposition, Mr. Bollea made the curious statement, "I picked up that 735 lb Richard Belzer and slammed him through the earth's core all the way to China, brother!"

Who are the Central Park Wilders?

They were 5 teens who were accused and wrongfully convicted of raping and murdering a woman in Central Park in 1989 or so. They were found to be innocent in 2001-2002 when the actual rapist was found and confessed. Or something to that effect. Its a sad story.
