I wanna know why the cry babies didn't make a list of all the drunk drivers and druggies, and contact Mars or any other corp.
Whats worse, being a drunk and having a huge chance of killing someone, kid, or wipe out a whole family at one time or try to fight the cops. Or someone who said stupid crap on the internet years ago?

If only this was 2002-2007. Could have been his gimmick. I feel bad for people who get witch hunted for comments they said years ago. SJW's ruin everything and peoples lives. A lot of the stuff he said is actual facts too lol. Like the stuff with statistics. Not his personal feelings.

I don't believe this, bit if its true, Lars has a case against WWE against freedom of speech. Some of his posts were pre-NXT. You don't have "freedom of speech" when it comes to working for a business. WWE isn't the US government, so Lars has no freedom of speech.

I do believe the fine is legit. Chris Jericho and Batista were fined, because Batista bladed in the steel cage match.

Plus freedom of speech doesn't protect you from consequences. If you say you are going to kill someone, that can be taken as a threat and you may get arrested. You can mouth off to someone and they might not want to be friendly with you. If you mouth off on the internet then companies might not want to hire you. It damages the company's reputation and if that keeps happening sponsors pull their support. I say fire him. It wasn't a one time slip up, but him spreading hate online for no good reason. I don't want to see his face on my screen.

In USA, the First amendment only protects you from government censorship. That means unless the WWE is a government branch or government agent, it is allowed to tell you to shut up.

So inflation took freedom from a buck o’ five to $100,000... Merica.

Why wasn't Hogan fined 100K and had to go to fake sensitivity training, then? He was fired and banished for 3 years.
I'm just confused at the lack of consistent action by WWE.
There needs to be procedures in place that if you do whatever, these are the consequences; and it should count for EVERYONE.
But we know that's not true. When Brock Lesnar failed the drug test after his last UFC fight and everyone was like "well how's he passing the WWE drug tests then?" and WWE had to admit that only "full time" talent are subject to the drug testing and wellness program. So the part timers can take whatever they want.

Hogan’s probably asking Vince, “What the brother? I say one word brother in private brother. Being recorded brother, with out my knowledge brother and you fire me brother. This dude says a bunch of stuff brother and gets a fine and sensitivity training brother?” hmmm... your post needs more brother, brother

I don't want to see his face on my screen. I'm with you. Really dont even want to see him. Yes people make mistakes and all but what he said there's no coming back from is there? Like, he wont ever really change. He may pretend that he has, but he hasnt.

So the part timers can take whatever they want. we have corporations absolutely raping the planet, driving the populace into never before seen levels of debt, that are in bed with our governments, and you’re surprised a corporation doesn’t have fair precedents across the board? their human resource department deals with things case by case: Lars is in the middle of a push, and isn’t in a position to derail his own career. Hogan could’ve easily sued WWE after winning the gawker case had they fined him. but he’s hulk hogan, they knew he’d be back, so they temporarily cut ties. Vince needed Brock more than Brock needed WWE. and there’s no stopping brock lesnar from doing steroids.

It's funny that the WWE is putting so much behind someone who is bland as all hell. Who in the heck is waiting every week to see Sullivan on their TVs?? It would be cool to see the smark towns chant their hearts out against this idiot.

Fined for something he did before he was an employee? Now that is something. I'm not even sure that is how fines work.

Put him in a tag team with Baron Corbin & call them Fugly.
Seriously, they'll probably have him feud with Braun Strowman. And boy, oh boy, what an exciting snooze-fest that will be.
