Summary
A joint court filing asked a Connecticut federal judge to postpone a June 16 hearing so Vince McMahon, WWE and Janel Grant can keep negotiating a confidential arbitration agreement.
The parties said arbitration talks could moot pending motions, including defendants’ bid to compel arbitration and Grant’s renewed request to serve motion-related discovery.
Grant, a former WWE employee from 2019 to 2022, sued McMahon and WWE alleging sexual assault, sex trafficking and broader abuse that she says senior officials and talent knew about or facilitated.
McMahon has denied wrongdoing; he left WWE as CEO in 2022 and stepped down from TKO in 2024 after the lawsuit was filed, while TKO said it took Grant’s allegations very seriously.
