Hulk Hogan, while speaking out after his headline-making legal win against Gawker media, said that "everybody deserves a second chance."

Further speaking about the struggle he had to do and questions he had to face for last 10 years, the 62-year old wrestler mentioned that he is a "normal man" and now wants to spend some quality time with his wife, dogs and do things he like to do, reports E! Online.

The former pro wrestler was awarded 115 million dollars in his sex tape case against the website and an additional 25 million dollars in punitive damages.

Although Hogan has faced some terrifying opponents in the ring, he confessed that Gawker founder Nick Denton "scared the hell out" of him.

He further revealed that he was offered "a large amount" to settle the issue, but he decided to fight his way out as he felt that settlement would have never made him happy and satisfied.
