The changes are expected to be made by January 15, almost exactly a year after they were filed in federal court in Connecticut on January 25 2024. Former WWE paralegal Janel Grant has indicated that she plans to modify her blockbuster lawsuit against the wrestling company, its CEO Vince McMahon and former head of talent relations John Laurinaitis.

The changes are expected to be made by January 15, almost exactly a year after they were filed in federal court in Connecticut on January 25, 2024, according to Post Wrestling. The original lawsuit, which contains graphic details, alleges that McMahon and John Laurinaitis violated the Trafficking Victims Prevention Act and inflicted years of sexual and emotional abuse upon Grant.
It remains unclear what specific changes Grant plans to make in her amended complaint. She joined WWE’s legal department in 2019, after befriending McMahon. In the suit, Grant alleges that in June 2021 she was locked in an office in the WWE HQ where McMahon and another executive took turns in raping her.
“Behind a locked door, the two men cornered her and pulled her in between them, forcibly touched her, before ultimately putting her on top of a table in between them,” the lawsuit reads, per the Associated Press. “She begged them to stop, but they forced themselves on her, each taking turns restraining her for the other, while saying ‘No means yes’ and ‘Take it, b****.’”.
