Warning: The following story contains graphic descriptions of alleged sexual assaults.

WWE founder Vince McMahon has been accused of sexual assault and trafficking by a former employee in a bombshell lawsuit filed in federal court in Connecticut Thursday.

The lawsuit, filed by Janel Grant, also names former WWE executive John Laurinaitis, who was in charge of hiring and firing talent, and claims the company was complicit in McMahon’s alleged abuses. Grant seeks an unspecified amount in damages and to void a non-disclosure agreement the suit says McMahon pressured her to sign in 2022, arguing that it can’t be enforced because his conduct was illegal.


The suit says McMahon directed Grant to have sex with him and other men, including at WWE headquarters, defecated on her during a threesome, and caused her pain and bleeding while using sex toys he named after wrestlers, among other sordid allegations.

“Today’s complaint seeks to hold accountable two WWE executives who sexually assaulted and trafficked Plaintiff Janel Grant, as well as the organization that facilitated or turned a blind eye to the abuse and then swept it under the rug,” said Grant’s attorney Ann Callis in a statement to VICE News. ..........................
