Hulk Hogan really should stick to the things he knows get people on his side.
Rip your flimsy vest off and expose us to your leathery pectorals, stomp around huffing and puffing and generally be unable to wrestle. That’s the Hulk Hogan we know and love. Though, to be honest, that kind of behaviour has become embarrassing over the last decade or so.
But one thing you shouldn’t – you absolutely should not – do is to say that your son ruining the life of a friend through reckless driving is “God’s will.” Just as Hulk did the other day. Oops.
But it’s okay, as Hogan travelled to the Larry King Live show to explain that he was simply keeping his son sane. Which makes the whole thing perfectly alright; as we’re sure any normal person would surely agree.
But no – the selfish, evil parents of the now-vegetative John Graziano are not happy with Terry Bollea’s simple explanation. They have even gone so far as to claim that Hulk’s tears, shed at the end of the King broadcast, were not genuine. The nerve of some people…
In a statement released through the family lawyer, the Graziano family told TMZ.com:
“No matter how he tried to spin it, no matter how he tried to cry at the end, it wasn’t going to change people’s minds.”
Change their minds as to what? That Hulk is grasping at straws trying to piece together what’s left of his public image? Because hecklerspray certainly hasn’t changed its opinion one bit. Don’t worry Graziano family – we still think he’s pathetic in his attempts to defend his frankly indefensible little prick of a son, and we certainly won’t be swayed by a few choice words on a popular US talkshow.
If Hulk Hogan were to once again step in the ring with the Ultimate Warrior, however, then maybe we’d have a case for changing our collective hive-mind.
Aside from Hulk speaking what is widely believed to be utter tosh, the Graziano family also took issue with the fact that they were not invited to King’s show to put forward their side of the story. But to be fair, that’s to be expected – how is the Hulkster supposed to cry when he has a family, torn apart by the actions of his own son glaring at him? The fools.
Anyway, let this be a lesson, Hulk Hogan: don’t say things like this if you apparently don’t mean them. Especially if you know the conversation is being recorded. It saves you a whole bunch of hassle.

If Hulk really believes that was God’s will, then maybe a probate attorney should be hired to contest it.

Wait a minute…I’m starting to get the picture here.
You know, many people have found God while in prison.
Now, Hulk is talking about God’s will, while his son
(Hulk’s, not God’s) is in prison. So does this mean that
Hulk’s son killed God while in prison? Or is Hulk
secretly trying to convince his son to kill God because
of something in God’s will? Is God leaving something
to the Hulk? Is the Hulk God’s “dirty little secret” conceived
out of wedlock? So the Hulk is the Second Coming?
Damn. Somehow I was expecting so much more than
body slams for an Apocalypse.
