TNA News: A recap of Hulk Hogan's on the Howard Stern radio show - Hogan says Bubba The Love Sponge gets heat in TNA like he hasn't seen since the days of the Iron Sheik
Apr 29, 2010 - 04:12 PM


The following recap of Hulk Hogan's Thursday appearance on Howard Stern's radio show is courtesy of MarksFriggin.com.

Howard came back and had Hulk Hogan come in. He said he must be the most famous and successful wrestler out there. Robin said that some guys have gone on to do movies and Hulk seems to be unable to get away from wrestling.

Howard said he wants to meet Hulk's new woman. Hulk said she was there. Hulk also said that he misses Artie. He said he thinks he'll come back an take things over there.

Howard said Hulk looks more cut up today than usual. Hulk told Howard he had some back surgeries last year and they were trying to get them right. He said he had such pain in his back that they were giving him epidurals. Howard said Hulk went right on the air after that too when he did his show there on Howard 101.

Hulk said he did that radio show but they kind of just threw him in there all by himself not knowing what to do. He said there's a pacing and a timing and a flow that he has much respect for. He told Howard he has respect for him and Bubba The Love Sponge. Hulk said that they put him in a fighter jet-like studio and he had no idea what any of it was.

Howard said that Bubba is into wrestling now too. Hulk said the fans hate him. He said he has ''real heat'' and he hasn't seen that since the days of the Iron Sheik. Howard said part of the story line is that Hulk and Bubba are feuding. Howard said he saw some of that and he realizes that it's scripted. Hulk said that really went down and it was real. Hulk said Bubba was all over him about something that day.

Bubba got hit on a show one time too and that was real according to Hulk. Hulk said that Mick Foley hit Bubba in a way he didn't expect. He said Mick knocked him down and Bubba hit his head. His nose was bleeding and his eye was blackened. Hulk thought he was going to be bitching about it but Bubba didn't do that like he did when Awesome Kong hit him.

Howard said that name alone is kind of racist. Hulk said he didn't have anything to do with that. He said she's gone from the show now since she hit Bubba.

Howard asked Hulk if he's in charge of the TNA stuff now. Hulk said he's not. He said he can't sit in the office like guys like Eric Bischoff does. Hulk said he can't just sit there and listen to that crazy stuff. Hulk said he does look at the TV sheets and tells them how to change stuff up. He said he owns part of the company though.

Howard asked Hulk about Stone Cold Steve Austin calling Hulk a channel turner. Hulk said he saw him a couple of months ago and talked and things were fine. Hulk said he'd love for Steve to knock him because he could get him on TNA. He said he would still wrestle if he could get a guy like that on the show.

Howard asked Hulk about his divorce and if that's all over. Hulk said it's done but they're still not speaking. He said that Linda is all set to go for a long time. Hulk said he's doing well now and getting himself out of that big hole he was in.

Howard asked Hulk if things are really good for him. Hulk said that things changed after the divorce. He said as soon as he got out of that negative thing he was in for 23 years, it all got good. He said it was like he was breathing clean air now. He said he didn't want to go around hating everyone anymore.

Howard said he sensed that Hulk was miserable back at Bubba's wedding. He didn't look like he was having fun. Hulk said things had unraveled by then. Howard asked when he thinks he should have gotten divorced. Hulk said he knew Linda for 25 years and was married to her for 23. He said his buddy got married around the same time and he was divorced three years into it. Hulk said he loves his kids but he remembers having a tough time around that three-year mark. He said he was thinking of getting the divorce around that time.

Hulk said he went to Linda's mom and asked her what to do. She told him that he was the one that married her so he had to deal with it. Hulk told Howard how tough it was living with Linda in those early days. He said he didn't know that it wasn't supposed to be like that. Robin asked how he finally realized how bad it was. Was it the TV show? Hulk said he can't believe that they're getting him into this.

Hulk said things started getting really tough before the TV show. He said VH-1 came to them and asked them to do the show on a regular basis. He said he figured that it might help them pull the family back together if they had a hit show. He said it didn't work, it made it worse.

Howard asked Hulk when he stopped having sex. He asked if they had sex in the last 5 years. Hulk said by the time they got to Miami it was pretty much over. He said that she said '"f-you" to him pretty often toward the end and that was kind of shocking. Then she started saying it to the kids and that really shocked him. He said he knew there was a serious problem when that started happening.

Hulk said the thing that really got him was when they were at dinner and she'd say that she was leaving. He said that's when things got really weird.

Howard asked how Brooke and her mom are getting along. Hulk said they're still having issues. Howard asked if Linda is still seeing the kid that went to school with Brooke. Hulk said they are still together. Hulk said he read that Linda was out at some party trying to do a cartwheel and the splits and they said it was a very desperate move.

Hulk said that it's really weird that Brooke and her mother are both in Miami but they don't see each other. He told Howard that Linda had texted Brooke that she was an embarrassment and told her to have a good life.

Howard asked if Brooke and that guy were still seeing each other. Hulk said Brooke broke up with the guy. He said he tried to fight it but he figured that fight wasn't worth it.

Hulk told Howard that Brooke is broken up and she's got a ton of energy now. She's on this P90X diet now and she's looking really ripped. He said she's lost some weight and she's looking amazing. He said that Brooke and his fiancee get along really well now too. He said it's really a relief.

Howard asked Hulk about the fiancee and if he had gotten engaged just five months in. Hulk said that it wasn't that soon. It was five months after the divorce. Hulk said the divorce went on for two years.

Howard said Gary saw Hulk's fiancee in the green room and thought it was Brooke. She looks a lot like Brooke. Howard said Hulk has a type and all of the women in his life have that similar look. Hulk said it's just the blond hair. He said Jennifer looks totally different. Howard asked Hulk if he's going to sign a pre-nup. Hulk said they don't even know when they're getting married. Howard had the guys bring Jennifer in after that.

Howard said he'd be happy if he had Jennifer too. Howard said Hulk really did trade up. Howard said he's liking what he's seeing there. He said she's got a certain something. Jennifer asked Howard how he's doing today. Howard said he was stunned by her.

Howard asked Jennifer if she was okay with the pre-nup. She said she wants to sign one. Howard said Hulk is going to be embarrassed to bring it up to her. Jen said that she will sign it right there, right now. She'll sign anything. Hulk asked if she would sign something saying she'll walk around naked all the time. She said she does that already.

Hulk told Howard that he met Jen at a health food store. He said he had a gun on him that day. He said he was loaded that day. He said he was walking around looking for toothpicks and he saw her there. He figured she worked there and asked her if she could help him out. He said he was in there about 2 weeks later and saw her again. He said he checked out her ass as she walked away this time. He said he got her card and tried calling her. He said she didn't answer the phone though.

Jen said she was dating some people at the time but she wasn't interested in them that much. Jen said she didn't know it was Hulk calling but one day she just answered the phone. Jen said she has never been with a real ''man'' before and Hulk is a real man.

Hulk told Howard about staying at Bubba's house and how nice it was. He said he'd go downstairs every day and the two kids would be there. He said it was kind of depressing because he missed his own kids. Then he went out and rented an apartment after a couple of months. Hulk said he loved being around the family but seeing the kids every day was rough.

Hulk said the place he rented was pretty open and there was a guy at this bistro who would talk funny to Jen and he thinks that he could see Jennifer walking around naked there.

Howard asked Jen if she likes being spanked. Jen said that Hulk spanks her and it really hurts. Howard told them that they have to have that pre-nup conversation. Hulk said that Bubba gives his wife $25,000 a year more for every year that she sticks with him. Hulk thinks that sounds kind of low.

Howard got to the pre-nup thing again. Howard wanted to help talk it out. He said he doesn't know what Hulk's net worth though. Robin said that Hulk has a certain lifestyle and she's giving Hulk the best years of her life. Howard said that he's taking that into account. He said that based on the sexual activity she's ruined sexually for anyone else. Howard said he's thinking... He asked Hulk if he ever saw Bubba's wife walking around naked in the house. Hulk said he never did.

Howard said he's going to assume Hulk is worth $30 million minimally. Hulk said no. He said he's in the hole by about $5 million. He said they're going to be fine though. Howard said he knows Hulk will be okay. He asked Hulk if it would be fair at the end of the marriage to give her 5 million. Jen shook her head and said that's too much. Howard said that would be after a 15 year marriage or so. Hulk said he's 56 now so he's not sure about that.

Howard said maybe they'll break it down to five-year increments. After five years she's entitled to 5 million. Howard said if it's before that he has to buy her an apartment worth $150,000. Howard said maybe he should do the $25,000 per year thing like Bubba is doing. Howard threw out a $2 million settlement and Hulk seemed to be fine with that.

Howard and Hulk talked about the Jesse James and Sandra Bullock break up. Hulk said that Linda's father had a room full of the Nazi stuff. He said that seemed kind of normal to him when he saw the Jesse James picture. Howard said it's kind of crazy and he wondered how Sandra didn't know about that.

Hulk said he doesn't know why Jesse went so crazy after getting married. He said that he was married to a porno chick before that so maybe that should have been a red flag warning.

Howard said Hulk is on TNA Wrestling every week now. The show airs on Monday nights but re-airs on Thursday nights. Hulk told Howard he'd love to get him and Jay Leno in the ring together. Howard said that's never going to happen.

Howard read a plug for a movie that Hulk did with Little Hercules. Hulk didn't know much about it because he show the movie like 4 years ago. It's coming out on DVD now and it's in 3D.

Hulk said he made some movies years ago and he was making some big money overseas. He said he wanted to do more but the wrestling was doing so well in the '80s that he was afraid to give that up. Hulk had a TV show for a while too. Hulk said he was partners with the Baywatch guys and he did Thunder in Paradise for a while.

Howard asked if there will ever be a Hulk and Jennifer show. Jen said she would do it if Hulk wants to but she doesn't really want it. She said she participates in Brooke's show once in a while though.

Howard had Eric the Midget on the phone so he let him ask a question. Eric asked Hulk if they're going to add more Knockouts to the list of knockouts. Fred played some snoring sounds while Eric was asking his questions. Hulk told Eric that the Knockout girls get really good ratings and it would be a good decision to add more. He said they'll have to see how the budget is before they can do that.

Eric said that he told Jeremy about a couple of girls. He told Hulk the names and Hulk had no idea who they were. Eric started to explain but Howard had to cut him off. He said he didn't want to get caught up in that.

Howard took another call from a guy who asked if his opponents ever got boners. Hulk said they never did but there's this Japanese show on where they do weird stunts and stuff and they have this bald guy who throws people in the water. He said that guy was an openly gay wrestler and he grabbed his sack one time when he was doing a show with him.

Howard brought up Chris Kanyon and asked Hulk if he knew him. Hulk said he had spoken to him not long before he died and he sounded really down at the time. Howard said he was good on the show when they had him on.

The caller asked if the Iron Sheik has the smallest penis in wrestling. Hulk said that he brags about it being small. Jen said there are a couple of guys she's heard about being small. Hulk told her to stop with that. He said she knows too much. Howard wrapped up and gave him some plugs for his shows and the DVD he mentioned earlier.

Hulk tanked Howard for letting him do his radio show. Howard said he's welcome to do one anytime. Hulk is going to be doing another one soon. He had the most calls to any show they've done there on Howard 101. He had 25,000 calls.

Richard Christy came in and said he heard a story about another wrestler that Hulk confirmed for him. They spent another minute talking about that and some other stuff before going to break.
