Spokesperson for Vince McMahon issues a statement.
On July 16th, Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics and John Pollock of POST Wrestling reported that lawyers for former WWE employee Janel Grant have filed a pre-action discovery petition today against Dr. Carlon Colker and his clinic, Peak Wellness, Inc.
Grant claims that she was sent to the clinic under the direction of Vince McMahon in November 2019 and received treatments that weren't disclosed to her, including pills and I.V. infusions. Grant claimed when she asked Colker about the substance of the pills she was being given, Colker allegedly pushed back and questioned whether Grant trusted him.
In a statement to Wrestlenomics, a spokesperson for McMahon commented on the filing.
“Ms. Grant’s petition for pre-action discovery against Dr. Colker is a direct violation of the court-ordered stay, and nothing more than an attempt to generate publicity on her false allegations and to harass people connected to Mr. McMahon, who is being sued by Ms. Grant in a separate matter.
“The facts are that Ms. Grant told Mr. McMahon she was fatigued and asked him to recommend a doctor. Ms. Grant called Dr. Colker and became a patient of his. Her statement in the filing is inconsistent with her prior remarks. Ms. Grant never had anything but good things to say about the doctor when speaking to Mr. McMahon and others about him.”
On May 30, Grant agreed to pause the lawsuit for six months while the federal investigation continued against McMahon.
Fightful will continue to update fans on the case when more is known.
