Janel Grant is not the only person who signed an NDA because of Vince McMahon.
McMahon resigned from all his roles within TKO, including TKO Executive Chairman and on the TKO Board of Directors, after the lawsuit that alleged him to be involved in a sex trafficking and abuse scandal from a former WWE employee, Janel Grant.
Allegations
She alleged McMahon coerced her into engaging in sexual activities with himself and other men and allegedly shared explicit photos of the victim with various men inside and outside of the company, including a former WWE/UFC Champion.
McMahon was forced to step down from his role in the company last year due to the hush money scandal. Two years ago, reports came out regarding McMahon paying upwards of $12 million to four women in a 16-year span to shut down allegations coming out of sexual misconduct and infidelity.
WWE was investigating a secret $3 million settlement to pay to an employee with whom he allegedly had an affair. McMahon was subpoenaed by federal agents in August 2023 regarding the payments.
More coming forward
While speaking with News Nation, Ann Callis, Grant’s attorney, claimed there could be more victims coming forward due to the allegations and civil lawsuit brought against the parties involved.
Callus said that her office and inbox have been barraged by people wanting to come forward to attest to the culture of corruption and also possible victims. She said it’s been overwhelming. Callis was asked why they filed the lawsuit now.
“It was a process. It was an approach from our legal team and also our client. It was an archaic, long, systematic drive to get the best complaint that we possibly could.”
She added, “We are going against the WWE, a multi-million dollar corporation who turned a blind eye to what was happening there to Janel.”
Callis said that the only weapon they had was the real facts that they put in the suit to even the playing field. When asked whether other people will be in the suit and if other people know of what Grant alleges.
“No more than the regular public about the NDAs that everyone has heard who has followed this story. So she has no more knowledge than that. But our hope is, and her hope is to by coming out by stepping forward by bringing these this complaint and putting her face to this complaint that other victims of Vince McMahon and the WWE will end up becoming public and she wants to help them find their voice and get justice and she thinks and hopes by doing this she will.”
