Vince’s Return Apparently Renews Bid for Shareholder Suit

A WWE shareholder suit is apparently moving forward. PWInsider is reporting that a previously discussed lawsuit is being prepped for filing. You may recall the firm Scott and Scott issued a press release last June about a potential lawsuit.

The lawsuit arose following the news of Vince McMahon’s hush-money payments. Here is a small excerpt from the press release:

…Scott+Scott is investigating whether members of WWE’s board of directors or senior management failed to manage WWE in an acceptable manner, in breach of their fiduciary duties to WWE, and whether WWE and its shareholders have suffered damages as a result…

H/T Business Wire

PWInsider’s Dave Scherer shared a redacted email from an attorney involved in the lawsuit. According to Scherer, he has a friend “who is a party in the WWE shareholder derivative suit that was filed last June by Scott and Scott after the NDA allegations against Vince McMahon surfaced.” Scherer’s friend shared this email with him (an excerpt that follows):

I hope you had a great holiday season. I’m writing with an update on WWE. We have been working with the company for several months and have received several internal documents, which we have been reviewing. We expect to get an additional batch of documents this week.

You also may have seen the news this past week about Vince McMahon forcing his way back onto the board, along with a major board shakeup. As a result, we believe there is enough of a basis to bring a breach of a fiduciary lawsuit. We hope to file a complaint against McMahon and possibly other directors/officers for breaching their duties to WWE and its shareholders. We should have a draft for you to review in the next couple of days…

After leaving my previous job 12 months ago, i ‘ve had some good luck to learn about this website which was a life-saver for me. They offer jobs for which people can work online from their house. My latest pay check after working for them for 4 months was for $4500.Amazing thing about is that the only thing required is simple typing skills and access to internet.

I make more then $12,000 a month online. It’s enough to comfortably replace my old jobs income, especially considering I only work about 11 to 12 hours a week from home. I was amazed how easy it was after I tried it…
:)AND GOOD LUCK.:)

I get paid over 200$ per hour working from home with 2 kids at home. I never thought I’d be able to do it but my best friend earns over 10k a month doing this and she convinced me to try. The potential with this is endless. Heres what I’ve been doing.
🙂 AND GOOD LUCK.:)
