WWE News: John Laurinaitis Files New Motion In Janel Grant Lawsuit

John Laurinaitis is once again following Vince McMahon.

On December 24th, Laurinaitis filed a motion with the U.S. District Court to move the Janel Grant lawsuit to arbitration. This comes just days after both WWE and Vince McMahon filed a similar motion in hopes of finally putting the Grant case behind them.

In his filing, Laurinaitis stated that, as a full-time WWE employee, he understood he was released from any lawsuits or claims brought by Plaintiff Grant.

The document further asserts that Laurinaitis views arbitration as the “sole and exclusive method” for resolving any disputes related to the settlement Grant reached with WWE and McMahon.

Meanwhile, McMahon’s motion emphasizes that the agreement between him, WWE, and Grant included a clause mandating arbitration for any disputes arising from the agreement. As such, McMahon argues that Grant’s decision to file a lawsuit directly contradicts her commitment to resolve disputes through arbitration.

Grant’s attorneys must respond by January 13, 2025. They are expected to challenge the motion to move the case to arbitration.
