Hulk Hogan v Gawker Update, Orton on Shane Getting Injured

Hulk Hogan vs Gawker Legal Case Update
Manhattan federal has reportedly approved a bankruptcy plan for Gawker, which includes a $31 million payout to WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan.
As has been previously reported Hogan forced the website into declaring bankruptcy when he was awarded $140 million from a Flordia jury in June of this year, after the website posted footage of Hogan having sex with the wife of former friend Bubba the Love Sponge.

Gawker’s lawyer Gregg Galardi called the $31 million settlement for Hogan “very favourable”, as it was only a fraction of the $140 million originally awarded.
Hogan is expected to receive the money by the end of the year.
Randy Orton Discusses Shane McMahon Getting Injured at Survivor Series
Randy Orton recently sat down with CBS Sports to promote his upcoming appearance on Netflix’s Shooter, where he also discussed Shane McMahon’s injury at the Survivor Series last month:

“I know what it’s like to be in his position and I know what it’s like to be in his family’s position, because I’ve been on both sides growing up in the business. Especially having my kids ringside when I’ve been hit a little too hard, maybe, if you know what I mean, or got a gash across the top of my head in a ladder match. I know that the kids worry. And I knew where they were sitting and I also knew that the match was gonna slow down to tend to Shane and make sure he was alright. So I just thought you know what? What better use of my time for the next 15 seconds than to go over there and talk to his kids and make sure they’re cool?”
“I told them their dad was a champ and he was a tough dude, and he’s fine, and it’s just part of what we’re doing right now, kids. Don’t worry about it. And they smiled and the wife was happy, everything was cool. At first I was like ‘Oh man, I’m blowing my gig, I can’t be that guy. But at the same time, that’s who I am. The people got to see a little side of me and that’s the nurturing father figure that I am for my kids.”
