Wrestling icon Hulk Hogan is ready to speak out against ex-wife Linda Bollea's claims of his domestic abuse and homosexuality, after filing court papers last week for defamation of character.
The 58-year old WWE champ was in good spirits at the Spike TV Video Game Awards in Culver City, Calif on Saturday, telling US Weekly of his legal battles with Linda:
"After the four-year crazy divorce I thought I'd heard everything I could hear in the courtroom. Then, all of a sudden she says I abused her, that I was violent. She told everybody that I was a homosexual. If any of that was true, I would admit it, and if I was a homosexual I would embrace it. It's just so crazy to hear, so I have a real problem with it....If you're going to say I'm something that I'm not to try to ruin my career and my livelihood....I have to answer her back."
Hogan added, "It's so ridiculous. I don't mean to laugh about it, because it's not funny. But it's insane. It doesn't make any sense to me."
In her shocking tell-all memoir, Wrestling The Hulk: My Life Against the Ropes Hogan's ex-wife claims he cheated on her with fellow wrestler Brutus Beefcake, and physically abused her behind closed doors.
The wrestler has since moved on with new wife of one-year, Jennifer McDaniel. "I've moved on with my life, things are great again," Hogan gushed. "I know what it's like to be happy again."

The boys wore matching Mini plaid pants; Kingston wore a red blazer with black collar and little Zuma paired his holiday-inspired trousers with a military-style waistcoat by Stella McCartney Kids.

Talk about on-screen chemistry carrying over into real life!
New Year's Eve co-stars Ashton Kutcher and Lea Michele certainly appeared to be more than work buddies at the film's premiere the other night and even during their junket interviews, the two were pretty cozy.
In this clip from OnTheRedCarpet, Lea and Ashton are leaning into each other and making googly eyes ... and Lea even invites Ashton to her house for New Year's Eve!
However, amid the extreme sexual tension between these two, Lea begins her answer to the question of why NYE is so important, like this:
"I think people like having the opportunity to feel like they have a second chance -- that they can do things over and start fresh. Whether or not they actually do, it's just a way to begin the year and try."
Uh, hello! Could she be talking about Ashton redeeming himself after allegedly cheating on his estranged wife Demi Moore? Awkward!!!
