Vince McMahon comments on sexual assault allegations from Rita Chatterton in Netflix docuseries
In the summer of 2022, former WWE referee Rita Chatterton’s past allegations of sexual assault by WWE/WWF owner Vince McMahon resurfaced in a New York Magazine article. In early 2023, WSJ.com is reporting that Vince McMahon agreed to a settlement with Chatterton.
The Netflix docuseries about former WWE owner Vince McMahon premiered on Wednesday, September 25th 2024 with comments from Vince that were made prior to his 2022 “hush money” scandal. Here is what Vince had to say about the Chatterton allegations…
“When you’re accused of this and accused of that, and there’s this deluge of things, ‘You’re this, you’re that.’ One of the things was an alleged rape, that never happened. Once you’re accused of rape, you’re a rapist. But it was consensual and actually, had it been a rape, the statute of limitations had run out.”
