Book Review: “Wrestling the Hulk” by Linda Hogan

I know what you’re probably thinking. You’re probably thinking, “Why, Kev, Why did you get this book?” While this book maybe a little controversial and people would call her evil for writing it, I picked up this book ’cause I find her a hot lady in some weird way, like I said once before. She draws me to her, for some weird reason. She’s a pretty attractive looking Mom. I think that’s what it is.

A lot of people speculated that this book was about Linda Hogan bashing her ex-husband, Hulk Hogan. When I actually read this book, yes, I actually read it, the book surprisingly wasn’t about that at all. What the book is mostly is about is what it’s like living with a wrestling icon and a superstar. It’s not as easy as it looks and she explains it all in detail. The book is about learning how to rebuild your life after a troubled marriage. She had a really heated divorce with Hulk (I remember it all in the news) and she ends up dating a new guy that is old enough to be her son.

The question you have to ask is, did I enjoy the read? Surprisingly I did. I actually liked the book quite a lot. She was very entertaining. She seems like an intelligent and honest woman.

What I was surprised about is that she knew a lot about the wrestling business and she actually went into detail about the old WWF of how a young Vince McMahon started the company. She talked a lot about the wrestling industry which is what I was most interested in.

I also liked how she talked about the Nick Hogan car crash controversy toward the end of the book. Whether you like the Hogan family or not, you have to admit that was a very scary time for them. They really went through a difficult time back then.

She talked about the allegations of Hulk Hogan having affairs with different women which was the reason for the divorce. Of course, I’m sure Hulk Hogan plays the innocent victim and claims he was faithful to Linda, but I’m on Linda’s side.

This was a very interesting and inspiring read. Linda Hogan just got a lot more respect from me. I’m glad I read it. It’s not bad that some people think. Like they all say, don’t knock it, if you haven’t read it. I hope she writes a sequel to it.
