That’s quite the detail. There have been all kinds of stories throughout the wrestling world this year but the biggest may be the lawsuit against Vince McMahon. Former WWE employer Janel Grant has accused McMahon of sexual assault and sex trafficking among other things with other WWE names included. There are several other details to be found and now we are hearing even more.
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: It’s Not Clear: Conflicting Reports On WWE Changing Longstanding Policy
According to Wrestlenomics’ Brandon Thurston and Post Wrestling’s John Pollock, Grant has officially filed a pre-action discovery this week, requesting records from Dr. Carlon Colker and Peak Wellness, a clinic she claims McMahon sent her to in November 2018. Grant alleges that she was given pills and I.V. infusions which were not explained to her. According to Grant, she asked Colker about the treatments but did not receive an answer. Instead, Grant says Colker asked if she trusted him, saying that if she didn’t, they had “bigger problems”. While Grant has received some records, they are incomplete or inaccurate. A McMahon spokesman sent the following statement to Wrestlenomics:
“Ms. Grant’s petition for pre-action discovery against Dr. Colker is a direct violation of the court-ordered stay, and nothing more than an attempt to generate publicity on her false allegations and to harass people connected to Mr. McMahon, who is being sued by Ms. Grant in a separate matter.
“The facts are that Ms. Grant told Mr. McMahon she was fatigued and asked him to recommend a doctor. Ms. Grant called Dr. Colker and became a patient of his. Her statement in the filing is inconsistent with her prior remarks. Ms. Grant never had anything but good things to say about the doctor when speaking to Mr. McMahon and others about him.”
Grant’s attorney responded to the above statement, saying “We did not violate a federal stay by filing a state action against a non-defendant.”
Grant’s lawsuit is currently paused due to a federal investigation.
That’s rather serious. Check out some less than serious WWE moments:
Opinion: I’m not sure where this is going, but this sounds like it could turn into a much bigger story in a hurry. Anytime you’re involving a medical clinic and doctor who is allegedly not telling you what he is doing to you, there is clearly something very wrong. Hopefully this isn’t as bad as it seems as Grant should not have gone through that, but it seems like we could be getting some very scary details going forward.
