The man had his own VH-1 reality series (Hogan Knows Best, though next season will feature his daughter and will be called Brooke Knows Best), hosts NBC's American Gladiators and is a tabloid regular thanks to his divorce proceedings with his long-time wife. It was announced today that Hulk will be heading up another TV show, this time on Country Music Television (or better known as CMT): Hulk Hogan's Celebrity Championship Wrestling. The series, for which eight episodes have been ordered, will feature celebrities pitted against each other, training with former wrestlers as they prepare for wrestling bouts. Hulk will act as one of the judges.

Hogan Knows Best's Terry Bollea, popularly known as wrestling star Hulk Hogan, wife Linda Bollea and son Nick Bollea are now listed as defendants to a lawsuit filed by the family of John Graziano, who was critically injured in the crash of a car driven by Hulk Hogan's teenage son.
The lawsuit, which was filed in Pinellas County, Florida, claims that aforementioned stars of Hogan Knows Best were responsible for the car crash that happened in Clearwater, Florida on August 26, 2007 that left Nick's friend, 22-year-old Graziano, on life support with serious brain injuries. Aside from holding Nick's parents accountable for Nick's "reckless and negligent driving," it also insinuates that Hulk Hogan and his wife helped fuel their son's need for speed.
