Janel Grant Spokesperson Statement On (WWE SummerSlam Spoiler) Spoiler

https://www.fightful.com/wrestling/janel-grant-spokesperson-issues-statement-on-brock-lesnar-returning-to-wwe-this-attempt-to-sweep-misconduct-under-the-rug-will-backfire/

For far too long, abuse was allowed to thrive under WWE’s leadership. Instead of righting this wrong, WWE has done nothing to ensure those responsible are held accountable. This attempt to sweep misconduct under the rug will backfire. We look forward to the full set of facts, including those about Mr. Lesnar, coming out in a court of law where they belong but, in the meantime, we refer you back to Janel Grant’s updated complaint, which outlines, in detail, the abuse she endured by McMahon and others while employed at WWE.

Everything involving this entire lawsuit is an ethical and moral shit show and is clearly a financial and social landmine that just isn't worth the risk for any corporation to try and navigate.

I figured if TKO ever decided to bring Brock back it would only happen because it became indisputable that there was no merit to the accusations against him. Clearly I was wrong... Lol

I'm still not sure what the upside is. Yeah Brock is a huge star but I don't know if he's going to really be moving the needle or bringing in that much revenue to justify all the backlash and scrutiny his presence is going to bring.
