In her original lawsuit filed in January 2024, former WWE employee Janel Grant had claimed she was made to perform sexual favours for a star wrestler “who was also a former UFC fighter” by former boss Vince McMahon.

Lesnar's name was not included in the original lawsuit, and the 47-year-old is not listed as a defendant in the amended lawsuit.

The former WWE and UFC champion was rumored to have been an unnamed party in the suit, and now that has been confirmed.

Following months of speculation, Brock Lesnar's name officially appears in the high-profile Vince McMahon-Janel Grant lawsuit.

NEW YORK – February 4, 2025 – A decision Monday by the Supreme Court of Maryland that upholds ending the statute of limitations on child sex abuse lawsuits will allow the child sex abuse case against World Wrestling Entertainment, LLC (WWE), Vincent K. McMahon and Linda McMahon (the McMahons), and TKO Group Holdings, Inc. (TKO) to move forward.

The sexual abuse lawsuit against former WWE head honcho Vince McMahon just got bigger – a lot bigger. After almost a year of speculation, Brock Lesnar officially was named as the WWE star that McMahon allegedly attempted to “traffic” a former female employee to in an updated version of the suit.
