Hulk Hogan in talks for a new reality show, shares sad stories about his health issues

Hulk Hogan told the Chicago Tribune that he is in talks regarding a new reality show project. "“It’s a show about someone that could have been a statistic, someone that could have been involved in turning everything into a crime scene, someone that could have ended up jumping off a bridge or sleeping in a gutter,” Hogan said.
“Even though I’ve had financial devastation, I am planning on having my greatest year physically, mentally, spiritually and financially. People will realize I’m not who they thought I was. I’m not who I used to be. Now I’m 100 percent dependent on the spirit of Christ.” Hogan mentioned "Finding Hulk Hogan" or "The Resurrection of Hulk Hogan" as possible show titles and claimed it would be more realistic than "Hogan Knows Best."
Hogan also shared stories about his health problems. "I tried getting through (an autograph session) without letting everyone know I was having a hard time,” he said. “I’d never had a chair there at an autograph signing before. Now I have a chair in my bathroom so I can brush my teeth. When I shave, I shave half my face, lay on the floor for 10 minutes and then shave the other half of my face."

Powell's POV: Despite his health issues, Hogan wouldn't rule out the possibility of wrestling again. He said that he feels "totally free" inside the ring and therefore wouldn't give up the dream of wrestling one more time. Sad story. As for the reality show, Hogan declined to say which network he is talking with.
I must say, though, that Hulk's idea of "financial devastation" is probably a lot different than most people. Yes, he losing a lot of money in the divorce, but I don't get the sense that Hulk is living check to check or wondering how he's going to pay his mortgage and still put food on his family's table like many people are these days.
