Is the word "slams" appropriate in this context?
This is not fucking WWE hell in a cell, this is them fining them for breaking the law.
A slam would be the "value of the company", not a small percentage of the money they made off of breaking the law.
You can fine Amazon $130 million.
To "slam" Amazon you got to hit them with 130 billion dollars
Should probably be "slaps". That's more commonly used when talking about penalties and fines.
