I wonder if watching all of Vince Russo's TNA years drove them crazy or being crazy to begin with was why they liked Vince Russo.

Yes. She will have to repay the people (unless Go Fund Me didn't give her money, then they'd just refund donations.) And some go to jail but most just get community service. A judge might make her work with real cancer patients to see its not something to be taken lightly.

She should pay them back with interest. Must be incredibly messed up and twisted to pretend they had cancer. Personally if I were a judge I'd make her volunteer with cancer patients as she'd see how devastating a disease it is, for the patient themselves and their families to have to go through when a loved one passes.

Dave called Eric a failed promoter and Eric's not happy about it.

Edit: Here's that tweet with a special guest.

In 2016, Hulkamania ran wild over Gawker when Hulk Hogan—whose real name is Terry Bollea—sued the site for posting a video of him having sex with a friend’s wife. Hogan won the lawsuit and was awarded $140 million, a sum that forced Gawker to file for bankruptcy and shut down, with Univision Communications (which also owns The A.V. Club) eventually buying the rebranded Gizmodo Media Group. The whole thing also indirectly led to some changes to how commenting works on what is probably your favorite website, but that’s only relevant in the sense that the world is complicated and weird sometimes.

According to Deadline, Blackrock Productions has just picked up the rights to a book about the saga, Ryan Holiday’s Conspiracy—Peter Thiel, Hulk Hogan, Gawker, And The Anatomy Of Intrigue, which it’s hoping to adapt into either a limited TV series or a movie. Along with the basic lawsuit drama, it sounds like this adaptation will also touch on the unexpected twist that billionaire Trump supporter Peter Thiel was Hogan’s mysterious benefactor the whole time, pulling the strings and orchestrating a definitive vengeance against Gawker for outing him as gay in a 2007 article. Rather than an attack on the free press, Thiel positioned his somewhat-covert campaign against Gawker as a personal privacy issue.

Blackrock head David A. Neuman says the film and TV versions of the adaptation are both “very far along,” and which path it takes will apparently depend on “the talent.” Basically, it’ll be a movie if Tom Hanks wants to play Hulk Hogan, and it’ll be a limited TV series if Hulk Hogan plays himself. If it does become a movie, this will follow last year’s 2017 Netflix documentary Nobody Speak: Trials Of The Free Press, which connected the Gawker drama to Donald Trump’s war on “fake news.”
Tom Hanks playing Hulk Hogan would make more money than every Star Wars film combined.
