A judge awarded Hulk Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, $115,000,000 in a lawsuit against Gawker Media, founder Nick Denton, and former editor A.J. Daulerio for posting a 2-minute clip of private sex tape starring the famed wrestler. Hulk claimed that the video violated his privacy, and he sought a $100,000,000. Next week, it will be decided whether Hulk will get punitive damages in the case.
The wrestler's lawyer, David Houston, said that Hulk is "exceptionally happy" about the outcome of the case, while lawyers for Gawker believe "It may be necessary for the appeals court to resolve this case."
