If nothing else he hasn't said anything stupid or offensive or bigoted that I'm aware of, especially after everything that's happened over the last few months.

A few years ago he and I would have some delightful chats about marijuana (both of us pro-legalization), and share lovely jokes over Twitter. He was very pleasant, and I really hope he hasn’t milkshake duck’d himself.

A much better approach than trying to unperson her from the industry for decades like HHH or Austin hiding behind gag orders for abusing Debra.

It was also when they were both very much on a lot of drugs, not that it’s an excuse but it sounds like they were both really going through poo poo. Any time X Pac talks about Chyna he seems to have a lot of love for her.

Waltman is good people and does more to reach out to wrestlers dealing with addiction issues than most people will ever realize. He's very, very open about how he behaved at the worst of his addictions, has been very reflective and remorseful, and is, as far as I know, the only one person involved who's actually denounced and apologized for the DX as the Nation of Domination blackface skit. He's put a lot of time and effort into getting his poo poo together.

It depends? Been a while since I had to do it but basically SMS itself is easy to get ahold of. Anything on iMessage, WhatsApp, or whatever is not. So it is incredibly dependent upon what was used and how. Then if it was a corporate device protocol may very well be that it gets wiped upon being returned or replaced. The last thing lawyers want is anything that violates data retention policies. But none of this makes me think he’s anything but the vilest of scumfucks. Because he is and if I were involved in discovery I’d be digging everything I could on how these mobile devices were used.

What I'm gathering from that thread is WWE is arguing that the law saying NDAs can't be used to hide sexual assault doesn't apply because they don't think it should?

It's not a retroactive law, given the sheer level of destruction it would cause the ruling class if suddenly every rape they did was public knowledge.

There's a lot of info in Thurston's tweet thread so I'll quote it for those without Twitter.quote:WWE has filed its expected motion to compel arbitration in Grant v. WWE et al. Also, the latest Trish & Sarah Podcast was made before WWE's statement, but they break down and discuss the Laurinaitis comments, the meaning of arbitration, and they bring up a LOT of key details from all the reports that are being attempted to be swept under the rug, lots of good info and talk there.

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.

Yeah, the prospect of a "legally sound but morally reprehensible" ruling to take it to arbitration is a distinct possibility. Best hope is for the NDA to get struck down under common law, I guess.

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 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).

Thus, he is trying to get the case out of the courts and handled by an arbitrator (where nothing is public). 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. I don't know if that works as a legal argument but I thought about it too.
