8. Hogan Versus Richard Belzer
Say whatever you will about pro wrestling being fake and just a show. The participants involved can do some real damage if given the opportunity. That is what happened back in 1984 when Hogan legitimately choked Richard Belzer out with a modified Guillotine. Belzer not too surprisingly filed a lawsuit over the matter, and the suit was settled out of court. Because this is Hulk Hogan we are talking about, the actual amount of money has been a debated topic over the years. It has been speculated that Belzer was seeking $5 million at the time of the settlement, but there have also been stories floated out there that the settlement was worth less than $1 million.
