Hulk Hogan has been paid a huge amount of money following the lawsuit he filed against the website Gawker.

The former wrestler sued the website after they published a sex tape featuring him, filmed back in 2007.

In the footage, Hogan is seen having sex with a friend's wife, but claims to have no knowledge that the events were being filmed. He was (strangely) given permission to nail his best friend's wife and was even shown to the room by his pal.

According to TMZ, Hogan originally sued for $100 million. However, the jury decided that due to the amount of distress caused by the case, that wasn't enough.

$55 million was awarded to Hogan for economic injuries and $60 million for emotional distress, equaling a huge amount of $115 million (around £80 million).

If you want to see the 1 minute 50 second video, unfortunately you'll be searching for a long time as Hogan had it wiped from the internet. Also, it's terrible.
