Janel Grant’s lawsuit against Vince McMahon and WWE includes serious allegations of sex trafficking and abuse during McMahon’s time with the company. A significant aspect of the case involves Grant’s ongoing legal disputes with Dr. Carlton Kolker, the head of Peak Wellness, who Grant claims was appointed by McMahon to keep her under control during their relationship.
Last year, Grant’s legal team repeatedly sought information from Kolker and Peak Wellness, while Kolker retaliated by suing Grant’s lawyer, Anne Karis. However, Grant appears to have prevailed in this fight. On Monday afternoon, it was reported by BJ Bethel on X that Connecticut Superior Court ruled in favor of Grant, allowing her to submit a Bill of Discovery for Kolker and Peak Wellness. This decision permits the discovery process to begin in Grant’s case against Kolker, requiring Kolker to provide Grant’s medical records, communications with McMahon regarding Grant, and other related information.
The ruling is a clear win for Grant and hints at the possibility of revealing further details about her case against McMahon. The judge ordered both parties to submit proposals for scheduling orders, including deadlines and timelines, although the exact dates remain undetermined, indicating there are still procedural steps to complete before discovery can fully commence.
Fan Take: This ruling is a crucial development for WWE fans as it brings potential transparency to allegations surrounding Vince McMahon, a central figure in the sport’s history. The outcome could influence the company’s future direction and accountability, making it a significant moment for both fans and the wrestling industry as a whole.
