The Grazianos are going to be suing the Hogans for $50 million, which is way more money than what they have.

They don't have $50 mil in cash and assets? That scumbag Hulk was making a million a month basically back when he was going strong, plus all the merchandising, and his run in WCW. He's gotta be close to 100 unfortunately. I'm sad I ever contributed to his fortune. He don't deserve it and I wish to God that Graziano family takes it away. It won't happen though.

ill agree the guy has bad judgement but i gotta say, that inthis day and age being too PC is just stupid, how the fuck are people supposed to get along if we can crack jokes at each other..being PC is about keeping up borders, being able to call people whatever as long as u both know its not meant in malice is what breaks down borders

Hogans assets is at most around $11 million. I dont know where you got $100 million from.

Hogans definately have more than 50 million, including assets. Including merch, plus the fact he would whore himself to WWE for money, they can easily have it.

Because it's been said he made a million a month back in Hulkamania's heyday. Many wrestlers have talked about how much dough he was raking in. I've seen stats where he was making a couple mil for Wrestlemania matches. And this is back in the 80s, when the biggest baseball contract was probably like 4 or 5 million. Just investing what he made in the 80s, he'd be worth a shitload today. And then, take into account, all the money he made in the nWo days and assumedly WCW gave him a big guaranteed contract with PPV revenue. Plus, he's constantly making money between the reality show, occassional appearances, and his american Gladiators gig. It would be nonsensical if he was worth only 11 mil.

besides those two, there ARENT a lot of guys who can hang with him

No way he ever made a couple million for a Wrestlemania match. Before Floyd Mayweather, the highest paid appearance at a Wrestlemania was Mike Tyson at $2.25 million, followed by Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock at WM17, with a little over $1 million for them. Hogan always had a knack of exaggerating things, like bodyslamming a 700 lb Andre the Giant. I dare anybody to find me a credible source that Hulk Hogan has anywhere near $50 million.
