Three Former Wrestlers Sue WWE

Newsweek reports:

Three former World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. (WWE) wrestlers filed a class action in California against their onetime employer, claiming it “has for decades subjected its wrestlers to extreme physical brutality that it knew, or should have known, caused...latent conditions and long term irreversible bodily damage, including brain damage.” News of the lawsuit filed Thursday was first reported by TMZ.

Russ McCullough (a.k.a., Big Russ McCullough), Ryan Sakoda and Matt Wiese (a.k.a., Luther Reigns) seek damages for what they charge is WWE’s “egregious mistreatment of its wrestlers for its own benefit, as well as its concealment and denial of medical research and evidence concerning traumatic brain injuries suffered by WWE wrestlers,” according to the court document. They are represented by Michael McShane and Jonas P. Mann of Audet & Partners LLP in San Francisco.
