Hulk Hogan Wins Big In Gawker Lawsuit… AGAIN!
Following his multimilliondollar victory against Gawker, Hulk Hogan took to social media to do a little trolling.
On Tuesday, a day after the wrestling icon was awarded even more money in a lawsuit he brought against the blog site, Hogan posted a picture of himself from his heydays performing a leg drop. Only the picture was photoshopped to add the Gawkerlogo where his opponent was once laying on the matt.
Hogan, who has more than 1.4 million Twitter followers, was active on the social media platform during his trial, usually posting a tweet every few days.
On Monday, Hogan wasawarded an additional $25 million in punitive damages -- $15 million from Gawker, $10 million from Gawker owner Nick Denton and $100,000 from former Gawker editor in chief A.J. Daulerio -- on top of his $115 million verdict against the blog site on Monday.
Hogan sued the site for posting a s*x tape of him which he said he did not know was made.
Following the punitive damages judgment, Gawker general counsel Heather Dietrick said, "There is so much this jury deserved to know and, fortunately, that the appeals court does indeed know. So we are confident we will win this case ultimately based on not only on the law but also on the truth."
