Luther Reigns
Three former WWE talents viz. Luther Reigns, Ryan Sakoda and Big Russ McCullough have reportedly sued the company for subjecting wrestlers to extreme levels of physical brutality.
The lawsuit filed claims that WWE for decades, “under the guise of providing ‘entertainment’, has put all its wrestlers to very extreme conditions, even leading to diseases like dementia (a sort of mental illness or insanity), Alzheimer’s disease & other ailments. The prosecution claims that WWE is “selling violence” in the name of business, meaning thereby – their source of income could be rendered illegal.
The three have asked for damages, along with an injunction order restraining WWE from subjecting its wrestlers to such brutal physical violence in the future.
