Hulk Hogan on Chris Benoit: WWE Star was Quiet, Peaceful

Hulk Hogan can't be trusted to dish out very good insight.

After all, he allows his daughter Brooke Hogan to dress in clothing that Britney Spears might not even be caught wearing in clubs.

So that what Hogan had to say about Chris Benoit with a steroids-laden grain of salt.

"He was peaceful and kept to himself," Hogan said to Us Magazine.

Hogan on Benoit

Hogan, who last saw Benoit in March, says he wonders what pushed the wrestler over the edge. But he has this unique theory:

"I think it had to be something personal, a domestic problem between him and his wife."

That wife, Nancy Benoit, had a darker side. The Hulkster concluded:

"She was into devil-worship stuff. It was part of her [wrestling] character, but [she was] somebody who gets so close to their character, someone who gets into their character too much. Sometimes these people believe their own publicity."

    ALTHOUGH HOGAN MAY HAVE TAKEN STERIODS HE WAS ALWAYS SMARTER THEN THE PACK. HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN MORE PALATABLE THEN MOST ATHLETES AND ALWAYS INTELLIGENT WHEN HE HAD TO BE. ACTUALLY HE IS A SURVIVOR AND A RESPECTED ACTOR FAMILY MAN ENTERTAINER AND GIVES HIS TIME TO THE UNDERPRIVILIGED.

    What a load of crap!Obviously this publication does not no what it is talking about.Just because his daughter does a sexy photo shoot it does not make him an evil father.She is 18 afterall!How many 18 year olds still seek advice from their parents.Unless you have been inside the wrestling business you will never understand what these athletes go through.No excuse to commit murder,but maybe someone else did this.
    You morons!

    someone should slap him for trying to turn this onto the wife. What a loser.
    Hulk Hogan does not know best. Someone shut him up.

  4. judy Says:

    your the moron, nobody else did this. The guy is a double murderer. And Hulk Hogan should be bitchslapped for suggesting it was because the wife upset the poor deranged husband.

  5. Melissa Says:

    I used to look up to the Hulk...but now he just sounds like an idiot!! And I do agree he lets his daughter look like a whore around the world, what would he know about this?? Was Benoit's son into devil-worshipping too?? What an idiot!!

  6. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SUVIVOR Says:

    I am a suvivor of criminal domestic violence...

    For Hulk Hogan to suggest the domestic homicide victims, Nancy Beniot and her child, are somehow responsible for their violent deaths is absoultely appalling.

    everyone posted any comment should not critize Hulk Hogan for his comments. He devoted most of his Life in help build sport entertainment into what it is today. Unless you lived with the Beniot family, don't crtize Hulk. Believe what you want to beleive but to me and most of the wrestling world Hulk is a god of wresting and just because of all of you slumps are jealous of him for his fame and fotune. Nobody really knows what happened. In plain word cut the crap. If you want to critize, critize vince for they way he pushes his weight around the WWE. It is shame on how professional wrestling is taking a big hit for the abuse of power Vince has done. Thus, for this incidents of steriods in the business TNA is taking the hit for what WWE wrestlers are doing.

  8. HARTAFARTA Says:

    Just because Hulk Helped build the business doesnt mean he can accuse a murdered woman of devil worship and for that he is ignorant. Im not rich or famous but i still have enough cop on to realise that what he said is out of order

    ready to call him a loser take a good look at your selfs you all are the losers and if you all look at other web sites you will see that they are saying that she could have killed daniel just to get back at chris after all she was a wrestler herself and she was into devil worshiping.Way to go Hulk and
    VINCE MCMAHON BURN IN HELL. I will always be a chris benoit fan and nobody can tell me want i can do.Chris and Hulk will always be more of men

    HOGAN HAS HIS NERVE HE TAKES HIS CHARACTER WAY TO OVER THE EDGE .HIS REAL NAME IS TERRY AND HES ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT HULK.THE LOSER IS LEAVING HIS WIFE AND HES LIED FOR THE OWNER OF WWE.HE SHOULD BE IN JAIL AND GETTING RAPED FOR HIS LIES

  11. Shay Says:

    See i agree that Benoit did not kill himself, his wife or his son because the evidence doesn't show it or prove it. Nothing about the eveidence adds up. I mean it damn near impossible to lift double your body weight with 2 hands so why don't someone try lifting 20lbs more then their body weight with one hand and tell me just how easy it is. Because if u stop and think about it Chris Benoit would have had to of let go at some point with one hand to finish getting the cord around his neck. And as big as Chris was why would he have to sedate his own son who was a little tyke for his age? Another thing is Police are trying to say Benoit lied about his wife and son being ill with food poisoning and that Nancy was found face down wrapped in a towel with her hands and feet bound together and had blood around her head. In some cases when people get food poisoning they do in fact throw up blood, so i know someone else killed Chris, Nancy, and Danial Benoit!!!!

    Most of you must be kids ! I tell you what,,I used to get my ass kicked everyday from this guy,the cops never helped ! And another thing,,to the "domestic violence survivor",you ALSO know when you push someone thats a "beater",you will also know when to get away and to NOT push their buttons ! BS to all this crap! Yeah,Hogans daughter is a slutty looking thing,but he knew Chris..And yeah i DO believe that if Nancy pushed him too much then yeah he could have done this ! So piss on you freaks ! IT HAS BEEN STATED SEVERAL TIMES HOW MUCH SHE USED TO PUSH HIM ON BEING AT HOME MORE AND HE SPENT MORE TIME AT HOME AND IT WASNT GOOD ENOUGH FOR HER ! Think about it,He had it all going for him,,why would he just poof do this? And IT DOES NOT TAKE A 3 DAY PERIOD FOR SOMEONE THAT S OUT TO KILL,TO ACTUALLY KILL ! SOMEONE IN A RAGE THAT WANTS SOMEONE DEAD DOESNT TAKE 3 FRICKEN DAYS ! But of course most of you idiots cant comprehend this!

    and I AGREE with you Shay

  13. The Answer Says:

    Yes, I beleive Hogan Knows Best! Perhaps Nancy killed Daniel to power a spell to unleash hell on earth! In fact Benoit killed her to save your ungratefull asses!!!! Benoit is looking down on you now in disgust. If he had strangled Daniel, then why didn't Daniel just tap out?

  14. BWC Says:

    Has anyone considered perhaps that Nancy was abusive in some manner for a time, and that led to the ultimate, deadly conclusion? Not that it would be justified either way, murder is wrong, period. But perhaps Hogan has a point; I think if you're intellectually honest with yourself, and don't look at the stereotypes, you'll probably come to realize that she probably played some part in this. Abuse is hardly ever one sided, and it isn't an affliction that only plagues men; it's pretty unilateral.

    I think that you all need to shut up,I don't know what went on in the wwf or wcw or wwe, I guess that if you want to know what went on maybe you should man up and get in the ring then you will know how they live and what they have do just to get through it all
