So what's the over/under on how long it'll take WWE to send out Andrade to tell a horror story about Tony stealing the last ham sandwich in catering one week? Because that's what tends to happen with this sort of news.

Wasn't the whole reason the lawsuit happened because Vince stopped paying the hush money? So how can he argue that she violated the NDA by not doing arbitration that he'd already violated by not paying?

You see contracts are something other people have to follow but for Vince it's only if he feels like it. See Bret Hart

Also, I'm not a lawyer, but there's also (I think) a decent argument that if the conduct in Ms. Grant's complaint happened, an NDA to not disclose it is an unconscionable contract. (And if so, maybe she wouldn't get to keep the million dollars she got up front, but that presumably would be factored against any damages she would win which would presumably be much more.) I'm not sure if that's part of the case or not. (I don't recall if Grant's complaint includes anything about the NDA possibly being unenforceable at all, or just that Vince breached it by failing to pay.)

MassRafTer posted:Maybe the biggest sign of how bad Vince's case is. Actually, while Vince's case is very bad, that's probably not the correct inference to draw from this particular motion. I am a lawyer, and I have had to deal with AAA, the arbitrator of choice in the NDA, and basically, given the nature of this suit, Vince's attorneys have every reason to want to get this case to arbitration for a variety of reasons, but the most pressing, and prosaic, is that once it goes to arbitration, any further motions or pleadings will no longer go on the public docket for people on the internet to scroll through at their leisure. Given the nature of the case, even if Vince were innocent, which he is not, his lawyers would want to get it the hell away from the public as much as possible, and arbitration is how you do that. It's also a motion that Grant's lawyers are going to have to spend time and money dealing with.

Also, Vince's lawyers have an obligation to explore every avenue possible in their client's defense. To not try and use such an avenue, unless directed by their client not to do so, would be a dereliction of their duty.

Grant's argument is that the NDA is no longer effective because Vince stopped paying, and also that it was never enforceable to begin with because both arbitration clauses and non-disclosure agreements in relation to sexual misconduct are now illegal.

Astro7x posted:So much for presumption of innocence. Actually, there is no presumption of innocence, it's a civil matter. As far as lawyers having opinions on whether someone is guilty or not, if lawyers weren't allowed to give that sort of opinion on a case, then 75% of the content of cable news would cease to exist. Oh. Point taken. As far as the actual litigation goes, there's a new filing. It's not really much of anything, though.

If he really sells that means he is out of WWE but he probably isn't quote:Also listed as a seller is WWE president Nick Khan, who also has filed to sell what appear to be all his holdings of 234,424 shares, an amount that includes restricted stock units which the executive has amassed. Khan listed the same 234,424 shares for sale in the same September prospectus and to date has not sold any WWE stock; he also remains in his position at the company.
