FOXNews became the latest big media outlet to weigh in on the Ultimate Warrior-Hulk Hogan online interaction, with the publication’s 411 blog referencing the former’s claims that Hogan was a “cocaine-using, wife-swapping ‘dope head.'”
With news in pro wrestling leader WWE in its annual post-WrestleMania slowdown, Warrior’s videos and claims against Hulk Hogan have had an ample forum for making waves. FOX411 thus jumped at the opportunity to quote Warrior on calling Hogan a “malicious, back-stabbing operator” with a “long-running reputation for being a liar, a fraud and a phony.”
Earlier in the week, TMZ reported that Hogan, who claims that Warrior’s claims of acts like wife-swapping offers never happened, is considering suing Warrior for defamation of character.
Making an error on the legal term, Hogan explained his rationale to a Twitter follower: “deformation of character hurts business and lives and let’s people like you doubt,then follow and believe in the hate and lies.”
The fact that the media has picked up on this feeds even more into Hogan and Warrior’s egos.
