Worked for his ex. She was bitter because they were together for a whole decade and it did nothing to help her flop of a singing career. She released one album in 2006. And people used to trash her. She wanted Diddy to marry her and give her kids. But he already had 5 kids (one wasn't his biologically). And he didn't want that. As soon as their relationship ended, she quickly gets pregnant and marry another guy. Then she had another child. And seemingly out of the blue after Diddy randomly had another child. Cassie waits 5 years after their relationship was over to say she was a victim of a whole bunch of BS. Now watch how she quickly tries to put out an album or a song. I believed he settled with her because he has love for her due to their past relationship. It's sometimes easier to quickly settle (guilty or not), rather than to consistently drag out a lawsuit that may take years.

So how do I buy one of the shares?
Minneapolis would be a great venue. The area around the stadium is great. I'm hoping Chicago gets their new proposed stadium. If you enjoyed the Philly cheese steaks, wait until you discover a proper Chicago Italian Beef, dipped, with giardiniera and sweet pepper.

While Khan has yet to sell any shares, he did go through that entire process in posting his current allotment of 234,424 shares back in September 2023 when the WWE/UFC merger happened. (McMahon did the same in posting his allotment of shares at the same time.) In another SEC filing that came out last Friday, those allotments were again the same amounts with no changes from September or in April when another filing was released. Khan, and McMahon for that case, are under no obligation to sell all or any of their listed shares. It's seen as making the process easier in case there are those interested in them.

Uber and Lyft are leaving the city of Minneapolis. That caused a huge problem with MPLS hosting Wrestlemania
You need a warmer place for Mania? How about the home of Bron Breakker, Road Dogg Jesse James, Xavier Woods, Ron Simmons (Damn.), The Phenominal One AJ Styles, Yer Boi Austin Theory, and the Undisputed World Champion Cody Rhodes. Mercedes Benz Stadium is a pretty big one.
Just like his buddy Donald, Vince attempts to either buy off or intimidate those who can prove the charges against him. John Laurinaitis was complicit in the crimes that took place, and he has chosen (likely due to either a payoff or intimidation) to remain that way, and remain under Vince's thumb. Any of the miniscule amount of respect he may have gained back by his previous admission that the crimes took place (miniscule due to his also falsely playing the victim card) is gone now.
Being from South Dakota it NEEDS in Minneapolis then I can actually go and US. Bank stadium is sick
Vince offered to pay Johns legal and probably a phat bonus . Vince just cashed out all his shares for a ton of money, you know what you can do with a ton of cash? make problems go away

Argh, man! That sux about Ethan Page! One of my AEW favourites.. Could've been an MJF level heel with how exceptional of a talker he is, or a Daniel Bryan level babyface due to his charisma and smile. Great wrestler too.. Sold like a champ! Guttered, but hope for the best! This one sux!
I feel like Page was always a better fit for WWE tbh. Pretty decent wrestler and good on the mic.

Honestly make them a stable called the Brawn Squad
John Laurentiis changing his statement from he’s a victim to now he’s on Vince McMahon side really makes him look suspicious. There is definitely some lies going on there. They are both guilty for sure and are trying to cover up something.
Her law degree matters because filing a frivolous lawsuit is viewed very negatively in the legal community, but it's even more frowned upon if your client is also a lawyer. I believe her claim, but you did ask "why does that matter", and I live in the very litigious United States, and thought I could answer the question. Hope she wins... A billion in damages? Sounds about right. Thanks for the content. (Usual disclaimer here: I am not a lawyer, but this is my understanding of the community of lawyers in the United States. If an actual lawyer disputes what I've said, believe them over me, as I'm just some random on the internet that you don't know!
