“We are shocked and disheartened with the recent allegations against members of the WWE. It has been a lot to process since we found out this past week just as you all did.
This is something we don’t stand for or condone from anyone no matter who they are. We want all women to feel safe and supported in the workplace and in their everyday lives.”

• Vince McMahon recently resigned from TKO Group Holdings amidst $exual trafficking and misconduct allegations. He emphasized his intention to fight the accusations.
Ari Emanuel, the owner of Endeavor and recent acquirer of WWE, is unlikely to tolerate similar allegations. There is an emphasis on Emanuel’s commitment to addressing such issues, challenging any doubts about his stance on the matter.
Here’s what PWInsider reported:
“As one source noted, ‘if anyone believes for a second’ that Endeavor owner Ari Emanuel wanted to discover the type of allegations brought forth in the Janel Grant lawsuit, not just about a company he purchased – but a company that has been employing his own daughter at WWE HQ for several years – they ‘don’t know Emanuel’ and they don’t understand how ‘ferociously he will eradicate’ anything that needs to be taken care of to protect his businesses.
The same source noted that if Emanuel was willing to walk away from Saudi Arabia investments years ago without ‘blinking an eye’, he’ll have no problem ‘removing anything and anyone still remaining’ that could potentially hurt or impact WWE’s business going forward.”
