Former Employee Janel Grant Accuses Vince McMahon of Sexual Assault and Trafficking in Shocking Lawsuit!:
In a shocking turn of events, the world of professional wrestling is currently gripped by a scandal involving former WWE employee Janel Grant and the wrestling mogul Vince McMahon. The lawsuit, spanning a staggering 67 pages, alleges not only sexual assault but also human trafficking. Grant, who worked in WWE’s legal and talent departments from 2019 to 2022, accuses McMahon of coercing her into engaging in sexual activities with him and other men, including former WWE executive John Laurinaitis.
Ann Callis, the lawyer representing Janel Grant, spoke passionately on behalf of her client in an interview on Law&Crime. Callis emphasized that Grant’s primary hope is that her lawsuit encourages others who may have experienced similar situations within the WWE to come forward and share their stories. This move is seen as a bold step in breaking the silence surrounding the alleged misconduct within the professional wrestling industry.
Legal Battle Unfolds: Janel Grant’s Lawyer Urges Others to Speak Out Against WWE’s Dark Secrets:
Vince McMahon, the 78-year-old wrestling icon, vehemently denied the accusations, labeling Grant’s lawsuit as “replete with lies” and “made-up instances that never occurred.” However, in a surprising twist, McMahon decided to resign from his position as a board member of WWE’s parent company, TKO. McMahon stated that his resignation was an act of respect towards TKO, WWE, and the fans and wrestlers associated with the company.
Grant’s allegations paint a disturbing picture of her time in WWE, describing how she allegedly felt “caged and imprisoned” by McMahon’s actions. The lawsuit claims that McMahon not only instructed her to engage in sexual activities but also offered her to an unnamed WWE wrestler for sex. These shocking revelations have sent shockwaves through the wrestling community and beyond.
Shortly after McMahon’s resignation, the WWE Chairman’s profile page was promptly removed from the company’s website. This move, while symbolic, underscores the gravity of the situation and the potential impact it may have on McMahon’s legacy within the wrestling world.
The unfolding legal battle has ignited discussions about the need for accountability and transparency within the professional wrestling industry. Grant’s decision to speak out against one of the most prominent figures in the business has drawn attention to the systemic issues that may exist behind the glitz and glamour of the WWE.
“There is a thing called trauma bonding that people that haven’t studied it – and I have just read articles about it, I’m no psychologist or psychiatrist, but an attorney – but she literally felt caged and imprisoned by Vince McMahon, and the escalation of the degrading things that happened to her, it’s important for it to come out. These are facts, and these are allegations that we hope to prove to be true, and they are true.” [2:07 – 2:46]
