Vince McMahon, his wife Linda, WWE, and its parent company TKO Holdings are facing a new lawsuit filed by five former 'Ring Boys' who allege sexual abuse by former WWE announcer Mel Phillips Jr. The lawsuit claims that both McMahons were aware of the grooming and abuse but failed to intervene, despite the FBI identifying at least 10 victims. This case adds to ongoing legal challenges for WWE, including a lawsuit by former employee Janel Grant accusing McMahon of sex trafficking and abuse. The allegations highlight a history of systemic abuse within WWE, with previous accusations against Phillips and other former employees like Terry Garvin. Legal representatives for the plaintiffs assert the McMahons created a culture of abuse and emphasize the importance of accountability. The lawsuit was filed in Maryland and echoes past claims from former ring boy Tom Cole, who settled out of court before his death in 2021.
