10 Wrestling Books That Proved Seriously Controversial

7. Hulk Hogan - Hollywood Hulk Hogan

Hulk Hogan's reputation as someone who isn't afraid to assert his own importance is a justified one, that is if his writing is anything to go by. Unlike many of the would-be authors on this list, Hogan is something of a prolific writer, with more than one autobiography to his name.

The Hulkster's first literary effort is the one that takes pride of place on this list though and for good reason. The book is written in character, meaning that not a paragraph goes by without repeated superfluous usage of the word "brother", and deserves an award for somehow containing some of the most childish writing to feature on this list.

Despite his unquestionable impact on pop culture, throughout the book, Hogan regularly seems determined only to elevate his status through his writing, and despite the apparent best efforts of its ghostwriter, the book still manages to get basic facts like the year of Andre the Giant's death incorrect.

Hogan's book isn't as much controversial as it is just a waste of time, particularly for someone who really does have a story to tell.
