Does Hulk Hogan even have enough money to get to the Xenu info dump

The legal system doesn't operate based on gotchas. His fiduciary duty is to operate in the best interests of the shareholders always, not at some arbitrary point in time. The stock price is up only in anticipation of a sale that would value the company much higher than where the stock currently is. If he doesn't go through with the sale then the stock price will almost certainly fall, thus putting him in breach of his fiduciary duties. And the same would be true if he accepts anything other than the highest offer.

sure but uh....he hasn't done either of those things yet, so I'm really not seeing how this lawsuit is going to be successful

You can just read the article my man:

quote:

The complaint argues that McMahon has breached fiduciary duties as controlling stockholder by trying to “impose his personal will on WWE and its [board] by purporting to adopt a package of invalid and inequitable bylaw amendments that would hamstring the Board from making critical business decisions.”

This is in reference to the "January 5th amendments," in which Vince unilaterally changed the company bylaws (which is a thing he can do as the controlling shareholder) to make it so the board cannot sign new media deals without a shareholder vote (i.e. his approval). And of course then undid that change today. Their argument is that this act alone breached his fiduciary duty to the other shareholders because he did it solely as a way to pressure the board, not because it was in the best interest of the company to be unable to negotiate their own media deals. And again, the fact that the stock went up in anticipation of a sale doesn't magically rebut any of this. Talking about the stock price or the sale price is just a simplistic way of describing what Vince's duties are, they have little to do with how the law is defined or enforced.

Y'all need to work for more companies that "accidentally" sold poo poo to Iran and then were forced to make all their employees take insane financial law/export compliance training every god drat year.

I know a bunch of funny stuff has happened since we were talking about Young Rock, but with how WWE has buried the existence of Chyna I'm surprised she's featured that heavily. In a few episodes, are we going to see the debut of all four Radicalz, including Beniot?

I'm reasonably sure that is not how any of this works? The Oklahoma Firefighters' Pension & Retirement System has a net worth of around three billion dollars and according to its reports has that spread around to a lot of different stocks/investment instruments. It looks like the vast majority of the "stock" they they hold, like $500M worth, is in Index Funds/investment funds, which is how most people's investment accounts work. These investment funds own the majority of WWE stock

it is how they work. cop unions are overexposed wwe, anheuser busch, and the parent company of oberto beef jerky.

He got a big chunk of change from the Gawker lawsuit backed by Peter Thiel, IIRC.

They've been featuring Chyna more lately (i.e. the HoF, Mattel Action Figure, and the WWE Game)

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
