Vince McMahon’s wife Linda accused of covering up multiple scandals in WWE

It was announced on Wednesday that a new lawsuit was filed by former WWF ring boys against WWE, TKO, Vince McMahon, and Linda McMahon in regards to them allegedly being “groomed, exploited, and sexually abused” by former ring announcer Mel Phillips. In a press release, it was stated that “the survivors only recently learned of the depth of knowledge that the McMahons and the WWE had about what happened to them and that sexual abuse in the company started at the top with the McMahons.”

While speaking to John Pollock and Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics.com, former ring boy Tom Cole’s brother Lee Cole commented on Linda being listed in the lawsuit…

“Linda McMahon is the master of the coverup. What Vince did is Vince walked out of the boardroom that very last day when everybody was meeting there and he said ‘Linda, take over.’ Linda took over, Linda was in charge of my brother, Linda was in charge of covering up the Ring Boys scandal. Linda was in charge of going out and finding people. She was part of it, just like she was part of many other coverups. Then it went to covering up for Ashley Massaro. This is what they’ve done over the years.” (quote courtesy of RingsideNews.com)
