Vince McMahon appears to be subject to another lawsuit since he made his return to the WWE Board of Directors this year.
An investor in the company has sued WWE Inc. for more information regarding some of the “horrifying allegations” against Vince McMahon, according to a new report from Bloomberg.
The site revealed: “The lawsuit seeks internal files from WWE to investigate claims that McMahon ‘r*ped and s*xually assaulted employees and contractors over the course of decades,’ then paid nearly $15 million to keep a lid on the accusations. The company didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment Wednesday.
“‘There are serious questions about how Vince McMahon obtained and delivered those funds to his victims,’ according to the complaint made public Tuesday in Delaware’s Chancery Court. The suit also cites fears that McMahon’s comeback in January’”when he staged a board ‘coup’ after being forced out in July 2022’”showed ‘a flagrant disregard for basic corporate governance norms.
“Believing ‘that the rules do not apply to him, Vince McMahon removed three independent directors and re-appointed himself, as well as two of his longtime cronies,’ the suit says. ‘The apparent misconduct here is both myriad and extremely serious.'”
Vince McMahon Lawsuit Allegations
This is another in multiple lawsuits that are apparently being brought forward, although it is believed that McMahon is purely only back in the company to negotiate a sale.
The stock numbers were not damaged by McMahon returning, so it is believed to be difficult for any of these investigations and allegations to be brought to trial.
