Reached by phone on Friday night, Terry Bollea (Hulk Hogan) said he had no idea his wife had filed for divorce. When informed during the call that the paperwork was submitted on Tuesday, Bollea said politely, "Thank you for the great information," and hung up.
He called back about five minutes later.
"I'm kind of shocked," he said. "You caught me off-guard. My wife has been in California for about three weeks. … Holy smokes. Wow, you just knocked the bottom out of me. … I just pulled over to the side of the road for five minutes to find out what was going on here."
Asked whether he and his wife had discussed divorce, he said, "That's my private business."
