But it's based on WWE's corporate disclosure.) And if the link is correct, it's especially damning that Brian reported directly to Vince.

But this is an interesting point that Physical Trainer wasn't when he was actually involved in raping her as well.

MassRafTer posted:It was always funny when wrestling fans would speak of Jerry McDevitt in hushed tones like he was a supersoldier lawyer. It's very much the effect of having more resources at hand than victims/opponents where he couldn't lose. (And apparently Vince/whoever relentlessly intimidating victims as well.) That said, thanks for digging that up.

SUPERMAN'S GAL PAL posted:The kindest read I get from Cena is the possibility you can hold space for someone you care about while holding them accountable for their actions, ie “I love my friend and they have something massive to overcome, if they can do that I’ll be here.” This whole statement falls apart when 1) Cena only gives "accountability" a mention and nothing more and 2) he's playing this like Vince was diagnosed with cancer. Not systematically abused and destroyed a person.

CellBlock posted:The original XFL's selling point was "no fair catches" because they were trying be like "yeah, those wuss returners can't just wave off the other team". There was a 5-yard halo rule, though, so even though a returner had to run with the ball, you had to give them space to catch it. It basically didn't make a difference. Still creeped out by the ESPN 30 for 30 on the XFL where Matt Vasgersian talked about Vince in his ear telling him to basically be as perverted as possible talking about the cheerleaders.

I'm gonna be so frustrated if the judge sides with McMahon/WWE regarding arbitration. The NDA itself is in question and taking wording from said potentially* invalid NDA to argue for arbitration is so gross. Also gross - the fact that they worded the agreement the way they did in the first place. *potentially used here since it's one of the key questions in the case.

SatoshiMiwa posted:i think the big question is and I'm sure Callis is gonna argue it is that if McMahon thought Grant violated the NDA why didn't he go to arbitration first like they're claiming Grant did. I think that alone probably makes the NDA moot as McMahon violated the terms to begin with I'm not sure if I'm understanding your post correctly, but McMahon's argument is Grant went to the courts when everything should be handled via arbitration. Thus, he is trying to get the case out of the courts and handled by an arbitrator (where nothing is public).

Pylons posted:I believe they're arguing that if there was something Vince felt was a breach of the NDA to the point that he stopped the payments (which is the impetus for the lawsuit) he should've requested arbitration himself rather than unilaterally stopping the payments. Ah yes this makes sense. Misunderstanding on my part! I do hope the presiding judge recognizes that fact.
