Hulk Hogan: 'I Totally Understand O.J.'

Hulk Hogan is causing controversy with a Rolling Stone interview in which he says he understands O.J. Simpson.

The aging '80s wrestling icon reveals that he's so frustrated at his current troubles -- his estranged wife Linda filing for divorce, locking him out of his house and allegedly spending his assets while reportedly romancing a much younger man -- that he's seeing red.

"I could've turned everything into a crime scene, like O.J., cutting everybody's throat," he tells the magazine. "You see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, sleeping in your bed, with your wife. I mean, I totally understand O.J."

For the full interview, pick up the new issue of Rolling Stone out this Friday.

Meanwhile, a rep for the wrestling superstar says: "Hulk in no way condones the O.J. situation. As part of a larger conversation, he referred to it to exemplify his frustration with his own situation."

  • Never marry a woman who does not bring anything to the table other than sex...if you do you are setting youself up for a serious, serious down fall!! Women don't marry for love they marry for security. Bottomline!!

  • He used a bad example but he was just trying to give people a visual of how upset he is. That it kills him every day to be so close and to know that he is being taken advantage of and tormented by what she is doing to him to get even with what he...

  • Well I use to kind of like this guy but what little bit was there is gone now. Anyone who would say they understand OJ is just as sick as OJ.
