A former WWE employee, Janel Grant, filed, last winter, a extensive complaint of 67 -page denouncing the displaced behavior of her former employer, Vince McMahon, and her close guard during incidents that have occurred a few years ago.
Since then, the file has made its way to court and McMahon left, in 2022, its post within WWE in addition to liquidating a large part of its actions.
As the men accused by Grant are no longer employed by WWE and the TKO group, the lawyers of the alleged victim asked the organization to break the non-disclosure agreements signed by all the parties in this case a few years ago.
“This is a first step towards the rehabilitation of the image of the company,” specifies Ann Callis, the lawyer of Grant. After decades to cover situations of abuse and sexual misconduct, it is time to show signs of changes. »»
Vince McMahon denied the charges against him on several platforms.
On the side of John Laurinatis, a former WWE employee also targeted by the pursuit of Janel Grant, his lawyers denied the accusations in addition to specifying that Laurinatis was the victim of the toxic environment created by his employer.
In her pursuit, Grant specifies that she was forced to leave the organization in addition to accepting a sum of $ 3 million to sign a non-disclosure agreement.
The request for Grant and his lawyers is inspired by similar requests made to other organizations in the event of accusations of sexual misconduities. Weinstein Co. and NBC Universal, for example, have raised similar clauses before requests from the courts.
Normally, the alleged victims are not appointed to the media, as is the case with four other women who have borne accusations against McMahon and they too under the constraint of a non-disclosure agreement. The difference with Grant is that she came out publicly with her cause in front of the media.
When writing these lines, WWE did not respond to the request.
