Lawyer Gets Into ‘Hulkamania-Style Blowup’ with Pro Wrestler

A lawyer representing Hulk Hogan’s wife in a divorce managed to snare an autograph from the pro wrestler before a court hearing, but the truce quickly ended in a press conference afterwards.

Lawyer Raymond Rafool got into “a no-holds-barred Hulkamania-style blowup” with Hogan after the wrestler interrupted the lawyer’s “boring press conference,” TMZ reports. The website posted video of the dustup.

In court, Rafool had suggested that Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, is hiding assets from his divorcing wife, Linda, and is squandering what is left of his family’s fortune, News Channel 8 reports.

Afterward, Rafool was answering a reporter’s question about Linda Bollea’s liability for an accident involving John Graziano, who was injured in a car crash with Hogan’s son, according to MyFoxTampaBay.com. Hogan interrupted, shouting, "What about morally? What do you think of John Graziano?" according to the St. Petersburg Times.

News Channel 8 says these were among the taunts:

Rafool: "Are you gonna wrestle with me here? Then be quiet! … You've had your time to talk, you're done."

Hogan: "It's a free world."

Rafool: “No, it's not a free world. It's called professionalism. It's called ethics."

Hogan: "I hope your son enjoys the autograph you asked for. Thank you, brother. Thank you, Hulkamaniac brother."
