Wrestler Terry Bollea ("Hulk Hogan") and his estranged wife, Linda, continued their divorce proceedings this week. The couple appeared in a Pinellas County, Florida court Monday.

The court session focused primarily on the couple's financial disputes. Linda claimed Terry was hiding funds to which she should have access. Meanwhile, the court intended to ask Linda's current boyfriend how much money he receives from her. (The judge ran out of time and was unable to obtain this information.)

Linda hired security guards to escort her to Monday's hearing. She told reporters she was afraid of Terry's alleged inclination toward rage and jealousy. She also stated she fears his reaction to the divorce. In previous comments to the media - comments that are now infamous, and a source of tension between the couple - Linda likened Terry to O.J. Simpson.

The couple married in 1983. Linda filed for divorce in November of 2008.

The couple's divorce proceedings are expected to continue in June, and the divorce trial is scheduled for October 5.
