Ms Grant alleges Mr McMahon pressured her into resigning from WWE and signing a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) for a lump sum of $3m (£2.5m) after his wife found out about their relationship in 2022.

NDAs, also known as "gagging orders" or "hush agreements", are contracts between employees and companies preventing staff from making information public.

Ms Grant is asking the court to invalidate the NDA under federal law, claiming the defendants had violated the Trafficking Victims Prevention Act. She is also seeking unspecified monetary damages.

Why is that all you rape apologists always sound alike?

She explicitly stated the sex acts were not consensual, as she was coerced into doing them. She further states that she was sexually trafficked, i.e "sold" to other men because of that coercion. Shes far from the only women to talk about the toxic and vile environment that is the WWE, and we even have clear evidence that she was paid millions of dollars in an attempt to hide what happened to her.

What in the living possible fuck about the above could possiblity be okay?
