Hogan and Linda divorcing

[The Immoral One]

I actually feel really bad for Hogan. He was just on top of the world, now everything is spiraling down and out of control. All he has left now is Brian Knobbs and Bubba the Love Sponge...thats not good.

Ya know, Linda's not bad for a MILF....

I'm watching her working out right now and I'd definately tag it. Now she's going to have half of his stuff too.

.Vince was the one who had to pay off his IRS money.

Oh yeah? I think Vince cheats on Flairs taxes, just like he cheats on his own. I THINK YOU ALL CHEAT ON YOUR TAXES!!!

Hogan has a decent shot of burying the hatchet with Vince.

With all the talk of Hogan coming back to WWE (I hope not), lets not forget he is hosting American Gladiators, so he isn't hurting for work right now.

For as sick as I am of Hulk and his family at the moment, I can't help but, feel bad for the man right now. His world is crumbling around him right now with and then to find out from a reporter that your wife is leaving you, no man deserves all of that.

That and like 20 million dollars in cash and assets. The fact that he didn't know anything about it when called for an interview strikes me as really surprising, considering they played on marital problems on Hogan Knows Best last season (I think).

In any event, if he didn't know about it, there is the possibility that Linda Hogan is just money hungry and a little struck with her own fame from the TV show, an also a possibility that they might get back together if it was a brash/odd decision made way away from him at the encouragement of bad influences or something.

This will be interesting to follow!

Watch this end up being a publicity stunt and she doesn't follow through with it.

Yeah last season it seemed like they wanted to divorce, but stayed together for the show. I'm sure it was probably inevitable but the whole Nick Hogan situation probably sped things along.

IDK, that family is falling apart right now. Nick is in trouble, that tape just came out with Linda saying how speed racing is awesome, and now this divorce. For all the politics and Hogans big ego, he does seem like a nice guy. If you are his friend he does take care of you very well, but it seems like you dont want to be on his bad side.

Im still really pissed at Hogan beating Orton clean tho. That made less sense then beating HBK.

So far as it seems, Hogan Knows Best may have been temporarily really lucrative for them and helped to push Brooke's career along to whatever dismal peak it was going to reach, but in the end it seems like shows like this that involve the families of famous people really end up just rotting the souls of otherwise already spoiled people.

Nick and Brooke and Linda Hogan were already the family members of an extremely wealthy, extremely famous person who will probably go down in history as one of the most influential people of his craft (for good or bad). I think when they began to get that sort of attention they expected the same sort of freedom and respect.

The same with the Osbourne family. And hell Anna Nicole Smith probably was headed there anyway, but she is, like, not even alive and stuff anymore. So yeah.

Maybe network executives need to look a little closer at the possibility that while filming unstable and dysfunctional celebrities and their families is entertaining television, that it might be a little dangerous to encourage/fund the self destruction of a person.

I worry about this with the Iron Sheik, for different reasons obviously, because he's gotten himself hooked up with a pedophile and a sleaze merchant, but the results will probably be unfortunately the same.

Does she get half of Hogan's enemies? Cause that was one thing I always thought HKB was missing. Kayfaybe. Hogan should get jumped by Kamala more often.

[Confused Mark Wahlberg]

Does Linda get 'Real American' or 'American Made'?

Just American Males.

Hogan...he wanted to earn all this money to give his family a good life, and used this to justify screwing over other people's careers ....and now his wife has left him, his son's life is a mess and his daughter has turned into a pop joke.

You also forgot to add Jessica Simpson and Nick Lagay. They had a very successful reality show that ended their marriage in divorce.

Most people don't realize how rich Hogan actually is.

I feel bad for the family though, they must be going through hell. Brooke is the innocent one in all of this, Nick having to deal with the crash, and the extra stress on the parents, this is all a mess. I think it may be just a little bit of bad timing for a divorce right now.

Also, I'm going to say this just once nicely. Please lets not confuse reality with fantasy. I can't believe that hogan's politics in wrestling and his on screen charactor is even being brought up here as a means of equality with what's been happening in the family.

The thing about Hogan is, he does more charity work than anyone else in wrestling, according to Meltzer anyway. So, he's obviously a nice guy.

But he has politicked, backstabbed and sabotaged the careers of others to benefit himself. Maybe that makes his an asshole. Maybe in wrestling you have to be. My point was was that, he did all that to give his family a better life, but it got torn apart anyway. Maybe if he hadn't been so concerned with making even more money, he could have spent more time with Nick and tried to give him a more stable, disciplined upbrining or him and Linda might not have grown apart over the years (which is obviously what's happened)

Maybe he has, but so have a lot of others. Wrestling is not exactly a business that accentuates morals and ethics.

As for his personal life, I'm sure he could've done some things differently, but hindsight is 20/20.

Foley seems to do more than Hogan does, and what about Khali? He pretty much spends his paychecks on an entire region.

Well, Hogan has been in wrestling longer than Foley, so I'm sure there is some semblance of truth to that particular statement.
