Hulk Hogan and Brutus “The Barber” Beefcake prepare to get it on inside a steel cage
Linda Hogan implies that Hulk Hogan had a gay relationship with longtime friend Brutus “The Barber” Beefcake while promoting her tell-all book on a radio show.
When people are trying to sell a tell-all book, sometimes they’ll say just about anything to keep their name in the spotlight and keep everyone’s attention on their merchandise, available on Amazon, in Barnes & Noble and wherever books are sold. That seems to be Linda Hogan‘s strategy to hocking Wrestling the Hulk – My Life Against the Ropes, her book talking about what a horrible time it was being married to Hulk Hogan.
One of the charges not in the book (because that would only make too much sense to include some of the more inflammatory events that happened during their relationship on the pages) is that the Hulk Hogan had an intimate relationship with his longtime friend Ed Leslie – basically that the Hulkster was pumping more than iron with the man known better as Brutus ‘The Barber” Beefcake.
Per Radar Online, while appearing on Matty P’s Radio Happy Hour, Linda Hogan answered a bunch of questions posed by readers via email, one of which asked if Hogan and Beefcake had carried on “an intimate relationship.”
“Wow, I don’t know how to answer this, so I don’t end up getting a lawsuit,” she responded, laughing. “A little bird told me, ‘Yes they think they did.’”
Yeah, because writing a tell-all book isn’t opening you up for lawsuits as it is… making up stories about Hulk Hogan going gay with Brutus “The Barber” is where the concern really starts to set in.
I’m not sold on Linda’s claims, mostly because no one has ever cared what she’s said before (not even on HOGAN KNOWS BEST), and no one cares now. This is a cry for attention, so she can make a little money selling a book no one cares to read, while trying to damage the memories of our childhood. The Hulkster always told us to train, say our prayers and eat our vitamins. Nowhere in the equation was “have sex with Brutus ‘The Barber’ Beefcake,” so I’m just going to go ahead and call Linda Hogan a liar on this one.
