Overview
In the suit, Hulk claims that several allegations Linda made in her book, Wrestling the Hulk - My Life Against the Ropes, are untrue.
Hulk's attorney Wil FLorin told the St Petersburg Times: 'He's being accused of all sorts of vile conduct that he did not commit.'
The suit claims Linda conducted promotional interviews with Today, Fox News and a radio show among others.
In one, she claimed she was fearful of ending up 'a statistic' like Nicole Brown Simpson, implying she feared Hulk was going to kill her.
In another interview, she claimed Hulk, whose real name is Terry Bollea, had a homosexual relationship with a fellow pro wrestler.
The suit states these allegations are false and that they 'harmed the reputation of Mr Bollea, exposed him to distrust, hatred, contempt and ridicule and hurt his occupation and business'.
