Join the Babe Ruth of wrestling on a gritty, no-holds-barred odyssey from his start in the barbaric wrestling arenas of the seventies through the heartbreak of potentially career-ending surgery to the achievement of his greatest triumph yet.

Book Synopsis My Life Outside the Ring by : Hulk Hogan
Download or read book My Life Outside the Ring written by Hulk Hogan and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2009-10-27 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hulk Hogan, born Terry Bollea, burst onto the professional wrestling scene in the late seventies and went on to become a world wrestling champion many times over. From humble beginnings, this giant of a man escaped a pre-ordained life of dock and construction work in Port Tampa, Florida, to become one of the most recognizable celebrities on the planet. He did it through sheer will, grit, determination, and a drive to always go over the top and do more than what others thought possible. From the outside, his story was one of a charmed life—he was at the top of his career, had a wonderful and loving family, and a lifelong fan base who worshiped him. Of course he had his up and downs—including hints of steroid abuse and his falling out with WWE and Vince McMahon—but two years tested Hogan more than any other in his lifetime. In 2007, while riding the massive success of his VH1 reality show, Hogan Knows Best, his son Nick was involved in a tragic car accident that left his best friend in critical condition. Then Linda, his wife, left him after 23 years of marriage, his beloved daughter Brooke blamed him for the breakup, and his son went to jail. The tabloid media had a field day. When unflattering jailhouse conversations between him and his son were released to the press the tabloids were in a frenzy. The sudden turmoil and tragedy surrounding Hogan took its toll. He fell into a deep depression, seeing no way out, until one fateful phone call. In My Life Outside the Ring, Hogan will unabashedly recount these events, revealing how his newfound clarity steadied him during the most difficult match of his life—and how he emerged from the battle feeling stronger than ever before. I was right there leaning on the side of the car with my hands when I finally saw Nick—my only son—folded up like an accordion with his head down by the gas pedal. "Nick!" I yelled. I could see he was alive. He turned his head, he stuck his hand out, and gave me a thumbs-up. For a second I was relieved. Then the chaos set in. The noise of engines. Sirens. A saw. Para - medics pulling John from the passenger seat. So much blood. I can't even describe to you how panicked I was. The police and firefighters surrounding us seemed panicked, too. The firefighters started cutting the side of the car open to try to get Nick out, and I'm still standing right there when I hear my boy screaming, "No, no, no, stop! Stop! You're gonna cut my legs off. Dad! Just unbuckle the seatbelt. I can get out!" So I reach in and I push the button on his seat belt, and Nick just crawls right out. His wrist was broken. His ribs were cracked. None of that mattered. He was gonna be okay. But not John. John wasn't moving. —from MY LIFE OUTSIDE THE RING

Book excerpt: Draped in the iconic red and yellow, Hulk Hogan, born Terry Gene Bollea, emerges as a towering figure in the realm of professional wrestling. Hulk Hogan's biography chronicles the remarkable journey of the man who transcended the squared circle to become a global phenomenon. From his early days in the American Wrestling Association (AWA) to achieving superstardom with the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE), Hogan's larger-than-life persona and all-American heroics defined an era. The book delves into Hogan's historic reign as a five-time WWF Champion, his pivotal role in the 1980s professional wrestling boom, and his record-setting WrestleMania appearances.

Rejoining the WWF in 2002 after WCW's acquisition, Hogan clinched the Undisputed WWF Championship for a record-equalling sixth reign. The narrative explores his multifaceted career, including his induction into the WWE Hall of Fame and his contributions to AWA, New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). Beyond the ring, this book unveils Hogan's acting endeavors, television stardom, and his musical venture with The Wrestling Boot Band.
