Hulk Hogan To Star In Celebrity Big Brother UK?

Channel 5 bosses to offer him huge payday.

Is Hulk Hogan about to appear on Celebrity Big Brother UK? Channel 5 bosses will make a big money offer to the 61-year-old wrestling legend to appear as a flagship contestant on the forthcoming UK vs US special series of the reality television show, according to reports in the Daily Mirror. Never one to shy away from a big money deal, Hogan could land himself a large payday with model Janice Dickinson already signing up for the gig for a reported £300k. Hogan has a history with reality TV having headlined his own show "Hogan Knows Best" along with his family; his ex-wife Linda (which he has since blamed the show for many troubles that led to the breakdown of their marriage), his daughter Brooke and son Nick. Hogan is contracted to WWE and is currently touring Australia on promotional work for the company ahead of a live tour in August where he will act in the role of "General Manager" for three live events. During the tour he claimed that Vince McMahon had given him the go-ahead to wrestle at next year's WrestleMania 32, as long as he was able to pass a physical. WrestlingNewsSource.com says;
€œHogan also revealed in the press conference that Vince McMahon told him personally that there is no way they would do WrestleMania 32 in Dallas without him. Hogan went on to say that Vince said if he (Hogan) could pass a physical then he could wrestle at the event. He then shook hands with McMahon and said that he was looking forward to it.€
Though it must be stressed that Hogan's chances of passing a WWE physical at his age and with his broken body are slim, at best.
