Brock is a creep and Orton is a pedo....
I'm trying to be very careful with this because I don't want to undermine this person's experience, but back then it was fairly common for 'heart throb' types to flirt with their (usually) underage audience. Look at every boy band ever for example. Obviously it's aged horrendously and I'm not meaning to defend anything or anyone but I wouldn't say this is necessarily proof of, well, anything.

Honestly, if I'm Endeavor I go scorched earth with anybody who could have known anything about this Absolutely correct. Vince may be the focus, but there’s no way his inner circle wasn’t aware of this shit.

Begging a reporter at one of their “media” scrums to flat-out as Paul how much he knew and when he knew it. Then ask him what his wife (?) is up to now. There is close to zero chance they do a scrum that isn’t a ‘work’ and is completely scripted, if they even have a scrum at all.

I'm not accusing anyone besides the higher ups in WWE by the way. I don't think for a second that someone like Cena/Danielson/Etc. knew specifically what happened because as much as it may be naive, I do believe after reading the whole thing that there is a chance that most of the talent itself probably had no clue, even if they were high up in prestige. People running the shows, bookers, executives? I'm sorry but yeah, I do think there's way more fire to this and I'm not going to apologize for it. You would have to be an absolute fool to believe this monster is bragging to the IT guy and not to other higher ups saying hey you want in on this because that's exactly what he f***ing did with Brock. The only reason I tend to think Danielson might have known something is the fact that Ace is technically his father-in-law. But yeah, I agree on your other points. There is that point too. I'm not going to accuse that Danielson would know but if for example this happened in AEW, he would be right there in my sights of who I am wondering about because of being involved higher up in some creative process even though I absolutely adore him. I love what HHH has done for the shows and HBK too, hell I have a f***ing NXT pfp. I set everything aside for NXT's on Tuesday and the Rumble is like Christmas for me. I don't want to have to wonder but it's so blatantly f***ing glaring.

I'm not going to blame anyone in the know who was intimidated, coerced, or otherwise manipulated into keeping quiet about it. That's how people like McMahon maintain their power over others.
Anyone who was a willing associate about this? GTFO.

Instead, we will get these gutless “journalists” verbally blowing Paul and asking kayfabe questions.

Paul Heyman just kinda defended him today on the Pat McAfee Show without alluding to it directly. I meant to ask about that. I saw them on ESPN briefly at work, before I read about all of this. I was wondering if they mentioned anything or not.

People, let us not jump to conclusions.
I for one will be waiting for Vince McMahon to carry out an internal investigation into Vince McMahon in an clear, impartial and unbiased process before making judgements.

There's a difference between flirting and referencing them being 1 year away from consenting to sexual activity.

Always knew Vince was a f***ing weird dude, seemed to have an obsession with toilet humour and wanted to run an incest angle with his own daughter, but it's f***ing harrowing seeing what he's really like come out in such graphic detail twitter.com/davidbix/status/1750615587426816219This man has been wrong in the head for such a long time. Jeeeez, I HOPE that she was just doing some amazing acting there, but I honestly teared up at how real that seems especially in light of this current bombshell

I do hope Vince gets his ass kicked by Iyo Sky and friends while Bayley screams at him for being a complete and total trash human being, that'd be the ending we deserve out of this. No, the ending we deserve is Vince going down in flames and preferably to jail, not something that sounds like it came out of the WWE writer's room. Oh he'd still go to jail in this scenario, just after getting his ass properly kicked, sorry if that didn't come across.

The reason this came to light is cause Vince stopped payments towards this accuser, which in turn violated the NDA and made it null and void. So the only way more NDAs are waived is if Vince stops payments to other accusers and they decide to come forward as well. That’s not accurate. The complaint is alleging the NDA is unenforceable because it’s illegal (waiving things you can’t waive) and was signed after coercion. I think you’re both right. Both things mentioned are cited as reasons the NDA doesn’t apply.

Once Vince is officially all the way out in the next few days we’re going to hear even more crazy shit from people that worked for him in the past. Strap in lads.
