Vince McMahon Allegedly Sexually Assaulted A Spa Manager In 2011, Husband Of Victim Drove To WWE Event With A Baseball Bat
Vince McMahon has some fresh allegations that have only just come to the light of the public.
Earlier today Wall Street Journal reported that Vince McMahon was planning a WWE comeback and that he believes he shouldn’t have stepped down in the first place.
In the same report, it is stated that McMahon has had a new accusation thrown his way. A former spa manager in Southern California has also filed a legal claim against McMahon for an assault that occurred in 2011. This claim was made in July of this year, around the time McMahon retired from WWE.
The former spa manager alleges she was assaulted by Mr. McMahon in 2011 at a five-star resort in Southern California while he was in town for a WWE event.
The spa manager reported the alleged assault at the time to the resort, according to people familiar with the matter.
The spa manager also told her husband about the incident, some of these people said. He drove to the WWE event with a baseball bat and tried to confront Mr. McMahon, but was turned away, according to these people.
The woman’s lawyer, Michael Bressler, has been in touch with Mr. McMahon’s attorney since at least July, according to people familiar with the discussions.
California, like New York, has a new law that allows alleged victims of sex abuse to file lawsuits that would otherwise be barred by the statute of limitations. Starting in January, victims will have a one-year window to file such claims.

Time will tell how this situation will continue to develop but it does not look good for McMahon, despite his confidence in an apparent return to the WWE.
