In a new Rolling Stone interview, Hulk Hogan comments that, due to his divorce, he could relate with O.J. Simpson "cutting everybody's throat."
This statement is causing a backlash, as both Linda Hogan and the sister of Ronald Goldman have now hit back against the wrestling legend.
In an interview with UsMagazine.com, Linda said, "Hulk's serial cheating destroyed our marriage, our family, and our future," adding, "his recent comments remind us that his definition of fair is much different than what the law dictates."
We also have the comments of Kim Goldman, the sister of Ron Goldman—Ron was murdered along with Nicole Brown Simpson. Regarding Hogan's comparison, Kim says, "It's sick to me that people throw around violence so whimsically." She calls Hogan's comments "vile," saying, "It says a lot and speaks to his level of violence and propensity for it. It's sad."
In the controversial Rolling Stone interview, Hogan said, "You live half a mile from the 20,000-square-foot home you can't go to anymore, you're driving through downtown Clearwater [Florida] and see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, and you know that a 19-year-old boy is sleeping in your bed, with your wife...I totally understand OJ. I get it."
Following the release of the article and the backlash, Hogan responded to the quote via his lawyer who told ETOnline, "Hulk in no way condones the OJ situation. As part of a larger conversation, he referred to it to exemplify his frustration with his own situation."
