Anyone else remember Endeavor/TKO rushing to list him as a liability shortly after the merger?
Also, it may not be Lesnar involved, though wouldn't doubt it. Remember that "UFC fighter" has become a catch all for MMA fighter like "WWE wrestler" has for all wrestlers to the general public. EDIT: I take this back, it says people DID identify it as Brock, not just point him out as someone fitting the description.

I wonder if THIS is the reason why Stephanie resigned last year. Not sure it is, but there is a definite correlation. Stephanie gets fired in 2022, allegations surface, Vince retires. Stephanie returns then leaves, Vince returns, Vince gets outsed by deal, more damning allegations surface

Not sure Brock is actually a defendant in this lawsuit like Vince and Johnny Ace.

WSJ wouldn't name Brock Lesnar unless someone close to the defendant confirmed it.

And given the fact that this is definitely not the first time it's happened with an employee, it begs the question how much this has happened with him or other stars in the past. This could get really bad if people decided to break their NDAs.

I thought it was written as Brock being the only one that could fit that description "wrestler and MMA star" but it specifically says he was named.

This could get really bad if people decided to break their NDAs. It likely happened all the time, especially in the 80s. There's no way Slimy-ass Vince wasn't trafficking his office women to the likes of Hogan and his buddies.

God Dang that's a hard read.
Dude needs to have the book thrown at him for real.
John Laurinites continues to be who we thought he was.
SMH at Brock and whoever else on the roster being involved in this mess

Brock's been named on TV by a victim as at the very least a sexual harrasser so yeah, he's always been a dodgy f***er too.

Also I know it would be easy to speculate on others involved or make jokes based on one of the accusations made, but this is far too serious a topic for that so please have some respect and don't.

As truly awful as this is, my mind immediately went to the fact that Vince has probably been doing stuff like this for 40 or so years. I have a hard time believing this is the first time he's done something like this.
This is the kind of controversy that could shake the entire company down to the core. People in management, current talent, former talent, literally everyone.

Brock better be out of a job by the end of the day. And they have cause now.

I recommend you put some real thought into whether or not you read. There's odious descriptions, testimony and texts here.

I do wonder if there are other people out there not yet named that are tugging their collars as the ball gets rolling on this accusation.
Edit: Obviously I don't want this to be used as an excuse to brainstorm who it would be. Just know anyone who knew about those group texts could be F***ed if more comes out.
