Janel Grant’s representation wants WWE/Endeavor to waive NDAs in sex trafficking lawsuit

It was reported by The Wall Street Journal in January of 2024 that Janel Grant, a former WWE employee, filed a lawsuit against WWE, Vince McMahon, and John Laurinaitis in a Connecticut federal court. McMahon was accused of sex trafficking in the complaint.

In an update on the case, Janel Grant’s representation issued the following statement to the Associated Press…

“If WWE and its parent company Endeavor are serious about parting ways with Vince McMahon and the toxic workplace culture he created, their executives should have no problem with releasing former WWE employees from their NDAs. This is the first step to rehabilitating a company that covered up decades of sexual assault and human trafficking.”

The article noted that a spokesperson for McMahon, Curtis Vogel, declined to comment while lawyers for WWE and Laurinaitis did not immediately return emails seeking comment late Monday.
