Vince McMahon's sex trafficking lawsuit set for private arbitration
Summary

The sex trafficking lawsuit against WWE co-founder Vince McMahon is expected to be dismissed and moved to private arbitration. Janel Grant, a former WWE employee, filed a motion to dismiss the case with prejudice in U.S. District Court of Connecticut, which would prevent her from refiling the lawsuit. The motion follows allegations of sexual abuse and trafficking involving McMahon and a non-disclosure agreement regarding their relationship. The case, which began in January 2024, is anticipated to be resolved privately, with a judge's approval expected soon.
