A law firm based in Chicago is looking to get in contact with anyone who was a potential victim of Vince McMahon or anyone within WWE.
Pintas & Mullins have launched wwesettlements.com and are looking for anyone who was “sexually assaulted made to feel uncomfortable, or witnessed sexual abuse by Vince McMahon or anyone from WWE/UFC.” The statement also adds that anyone who was sexually assaulted may be entitled to significant compensation.
On January 25th, Vince McMahon was accused of sex trafficking and multiple counts of sexual assault by former WWE employee Janel Grant. The deeply disturbing lawsuit contains graphic depictions of sexual assault and implicates Former Head of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis along with multiple unnamed executives, exposing the toxic culture of the company.
WWE Settlements has stated that this is not the first time that McMahon has been accused of sexual misconduct, citing previous instances involving former referee Rita Chatterton and the hush money payouts from 2022:
