Is Vince McMahon facing another investigation?
If having Brock Lesnar under investigation for allegedly failing a drug test this month for UFC visit a few weeks ago, Vince McMahon is facing major lawsuits from former employees.
According to public records, more than 50 wrestlers have sued WWE over responsibility for long-term neurological damage and failing to care for injuries during-and-after leaving the company.
Among the former athletes’ lawsuits are Superlfy Jimmy Snuka, Road Warrior Animal and Paul Orndorff who were listed on paperwork submitted Connecticut federal courts.
At the moment, WWE has denied allegations, claiming them false and referred back to previous cases that ended up being dismissed. Snuka, who is currently being charged with a 1983 death of his former girlfriend in Pennsylvania, has been ruled mentally incompetent to stand trial and blames head trauma suffered in the ring for his current health issues.
We’ll keep you updated if anything progresses in this latest PR nightmare for the McMahons and if the performers are successful in getting reimbursed over injuries.
