Next Up: John Laurinaitis Takes Important Step In Legal Efforts Following Vince McMahon Lawsuit

The next step. Earlier this year, Vince McMahon was sued over a series of alleged sex abuse acts, along with accusations that he trafficked a former WWE employee to various others at the company. The lawsuit included multiple other people who were accused of being involved in the situation and now one of them has taken a step forward in his legal defense situation.

According to the lawsuit, McMahon is alleged to have trafficked Janel Grant to former WWE executive John Laurinaitis on multiple occasions. According to PWInsider.com, Laurinaitis has filed a waiver of service to the lawsuit. This means that he is aware of the accusations against him and is willing to waive being served as a result. Laurinaitis will make an official response within 60 days of March 15, meaning by May 14.

That’s rather serious stuff. Check out some less than serious unrelated WWE moments:

Opinion: This is one of the most serious things that has ever allegedly taken place in WWE and we could be in for quite the rollercoaster with the whole thing. While Laurinaitis is one of the biggest names involved, it is going to lead to questions of who knew what when. At the end of the day, there are likely going to be some people in some very serious trouble and now we might be seeing the start of where it all could go.
