A former WWE talent is reportedly considering legal action following the lawsuit filed against Vince McMahon, who recently departed from World Wrestling Entertainment, a company he transformed into a global media powerhouse. McMahon stepped down after facing allegations of sex trafficking from his former employee, Janel Grant.
According to an update from Fightful Select, the ex-talent is currently deliberating their options, torn between sharing their story through the media or pursuing legal recourse. The individual’s identity will remain confidential unless they consent to disclosure.
A recent report sheds light on the situation:
“We’ve spoken to one former talent who has indicated that they’re weighing the options of whether to tell their story via the media, or whether or not they wanted to take legal action. We will not provide their identity unless they approve of such.” [H/T Fightful Select]

In response to the lawsuit against Vince McMahon, WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins expressed his sentiments, emphasizing the importance of justice prevailing:
“I said it in the interview the other day at radio row, it s*cks. It’s horrible. It’s disgusting. I don’t like hearing about it or reading about it. It’s abhorrent. And I hope that if the allegations are accurate, I hope that anybody who’s involved with it gets what’s coming to them because it s*cks, dude. And for me, it’s very difficult because, again, I didn’t see that side of him. You know what I mean? I didn’t experience that. And so when you see stuff like that, it’s jarring, it’s painful, and it s*cks all around. There’s just no other way to say it. It really s*cks.” [H/T Fightful]
The identity of the talent will remain undisclosed until they decide otherwise. It remains uncertain whether this individual will choose to publicly share their story.
