Hulk Hogan can 'feel his hands' again after undergoing neck surgery, Entertainment News
Hulk Hogan can "feel his hands" again after undergoing neck surgery. The wrestling legend had the procedure last week and his friend Eric Bischoff revealed that the operation eased the discomfort all over his body. Speaking on his 83 Weeks podcast, Bischoff said: "They had to work on the discs in his neck, but they had to go in through the front to get to him to relieve some of the pressure and damage that he was experiencing in his legs and his hands. "What I heard from one of the people who works closely with him on a daily basis was that coming out of that surgery, for the first time in a long time, he could actually feel his hands. "He hasn't been able to feel his hands... as soon as he woke up, the first thing he said was, 'I can feel my hands', which I think is really cool." Bischoff also hit out at online negativity against Hulk, 71, and says it contrasts hugely with his enduring popularity in the real world. The wrestling executive said: "(The critics are) just bottom-feeder, unproductive sheep that tend to want to be the loudest people in the room. "You go outside of that little bubble, and as you pointed out, it's mind-boggling that kind of response he gives. It's not only at the fan level, but even now... I'm talking to networks, large ones, who are wanting to know how much we're going to be able to use Hulk." Bischoff and Hulk are preparing to launch a new wrestling league, Real American Freestyle, this summer and he doesn't want to overexpose the retired WWE star in the venture that is separate from "sports entertainment". He said: "I don't want to see too much Hulk Hogan on TV... because that will make the job of separating ourselves and defining our brand from sports entertainment (harder). "So the more I see Hulk on TV as a producer, the harder my job becomes, but yet the networks I'm talking to are going, 'Yeah, but can we get a special interview... Can we get Hulk on a pre-show?'"

American wrestler Kyle Snyder pleads to lesser charge after arrest in connection to prostitution sting
Olympic wrestling gold medalist Kyle Snyder pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of disorderly conduct after he was arrested in connection to a prostitution sting last week. The decorated American wrestler initially faced a charge of engaging in prostitution after he was taken into custody this month in Columbus, Ohio. He was at a hotel at the time of the arrest. The 29-year-old was ordered to pay a $250 fine. Snyder said he has already completed a one-day program for people accused of solicitation. He appeared at the hearing via video. Snyder said he has learned a lot about himself and that he "plans on making much better decisions." "I learned about the impact these decisions have on not just my family but the community," he said. Snyder became the youngest American wrestler to win Olympic gold at age 20 during the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Games, and he followed that up with a silver at the Tokyo Games. He lost in the bronze medal match at the Paris Olympics. He was also a three-time NCAA champion at Ohio State. He recently signed on with the Real American Freestyle wrestling league, which has pro wrestling icon Hulk Hogan as its commissioner and is slated to hold its first event on Aug. 30 in Cleveland.

Olympic gold medallist Kyle Snyder pleads to lesser charge after arrest in prostitution sting
Former Olympic wrestling champion Kyle Snyder pleaded guilty Monday to a lesser charge of disorderly conduct after being arrested in a prostitution sting. Snyder, one of the most successful wrestlers in U.S. history, was initially charged with engaging in prostitution after he was arrested on May 9 at a motel in Columbus, Ohio. A judge ordered Snyder, 29, to pay a $250 fine. Snyder said he has already completed a one-day program for people accused of solicitation. Snyder, who appeared at the hearing by video, said he has learned a lot about himself and that he 'plans on making much better decisions.' 'I learned about the impact these decisions have on not just my family but the community,' he said.
