Vince McMahon, Wife Linda Ignored Of Ex-WWE ‘Ring Boys’ Sexual Abuse, Explosive Lawsuit Claims

Five former WWE ring boys claim they were sexually exploited and abused during their time working for the wrestling giant, while former WWE General Manager Vince McMahon did nothing to stop it .

The men, who were minors at the time of the alleged abuse, filed an anonymous lawsuit in a Maryland court against McMahon, his wife Linda and their company TKO Group Holdings.

The couple allegedly knew about the sexual abuse by ring crew chief Melvin Philips Jr. but did nothing to stop it, according to court documents.

“Thanks to the bravery of our clients, we finally have the opportunity to hold accountable those who allowed and permitted the open and rampant sexual abuse of these boys,” plaintiff attorney Greg Gutzler said in a statement.

“That so many were aware of the sexual abuse of ring boys and did nothing to prevent or stop it is simply unacceptable.”

McMahon and an attorney representing him in another case did not immediately return requests for comment Wednesday afternoon.
