The legal team representing Janel Grant in her case against Vince McMahon filed a motion to amend the lawsuit to include new evidence.

On Friday (Jan. 31), Grant filed an amended complaint to add more information to the allegations she levied against the former WWE boss in January 2024. According to the new evidence, Grant's lawsuit went up from 67 pages to a staggering 101 pages, where she expanded on the accusations that McMahon sexually abused and trafficked her to others in the company while he was running the show.

"Ms. Grant's amended complaint reveals new details," Grant's attorney Ann Callis said via statement. "That further demonstrates the sexual abuse Janel Grant suffered at the hands of Vince McMahon and John Laurinaitis and pulls back the curtain on the dangerous workplace culture McMahon created at WWE. Ms. Grant looks forward to holding her abusers accountable in a court of law."

The amended complaint listed various alleged incidents with McMahon, such as him telling Grant only he has "power" to arrange her sexual encounters, offering her to WWE superstar Brock Lesnar to lock him into a new contract, recording Grant without her knowledge while she posed nude for WWE executive John Laurinaitis, instructing Grant to record pornographic footage for WWE creative executive Michael Hayes and more.

McMahon's legal team has released a statement denouncing the amended complaint and labeling it as "nothing more than the latest publicity stunt in an ongoing smear campaign." According to McMahon's lawyers, the new list of evidence is "filled with desparate falsehoods from a team that continues to disregard the law and the truth."

This latest update in the case is the first since Grant claimed she was also sexually abused at the office of a doctor connected to McMahon. In the motion, Grant claimed McMahon defecated on her head and forced her to have sex with a physical therapist at the clinic.
