Vince McMahon and his legal team have responded to the bombshell lawsuit filed against McMahon, WWE, and former WWE executive John Laurenitis with a motion attempting to force the dispute into arbitration.
McMahon's lawyers claim that since the nondisclosure agreement former employee Janel Grant signed in exchange for 3 million dollars originally specified that any disputes would be handled in arbitration and that 'the prevailing party in the arbitration 'shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party all of its attorney's fees and costs.
After citing a lot of legal precedents, the filing concludes by asking 'that the Court grant his motion and compel arbitration of all claims asserted in the Complaint and stay the litigation pending arbitration.' Read the full filing here. Filed earlier this year, the lawsuit filed by Grant accused McMahon of sexually trafficking, abusing, and assaulting Grant during a time she was both an employee of WWE and engaged in a relationship with McMahon.
