Huge Update on Concussion Lawsuits Against McMahon Family

Earlier today, Vince McMahon was scheduled to be deposed today in the lawsuit of former WWE star Vito Lo Grasso and former WWE developmental talent Evan Singleton against WWE.

However, Vince’s deposition has been moved to next Tuesday, which is the same day that both Stephanie McMahon and Triple H will be deposed in the case.

WWE had argued against Stephanie’s involvement based on the fact that she won’t say anything that Vince, Triple H, or anyone else available wouldn’t. However a judge ruled the following:

“WWE made Levesque available previously to testify before Congress on issues related to the safety of its wrestlers. Although the Court rejected Plaintiff’s fraudulent misrepresentation claims on the basis of that testimony, WWE has not demonstrated that Levesque is not an appropriate deponent on the issues of whether WWE had a duty, and whether that duty was breached, to disclose knowledge of long term health risks caused by repeated head trauma. The parties are ordered to work cooperatively to schedule a deposition based on the witness’ availability, which may be conducted up to fourteen days after the current discovery deadline.”

Needless to say, all three of them are going to be deposed on Tuesday. The Concussion Legacy Foundation is now lead by WWE’s Dr. Chris Amann and former WWE star Chris Nowinski, who are also going to be deposed.

Do you think WWE has to do a lot more to protect against concussions than they already have?
