They claim they've been Badgered, Brutalized
and Brain Damaged. Big Russ McCullough, Ryan
Sakoda and Luther Reigns' lawsuit says the
WWE" under the guise of providing
'entertainment' .... has for decades subjected its
wrestlers to extreme physical brutality."
The suit acknowledges wrestling is scripted. It
also singles out various moves, including the
Brain Buster, Bulldog, Cobra Clutch Slam,
Facebreaker, Jawbreaker and Powerslam. It
singles
out the chair shots to the heat, which was
banned in 2010. The suit claims, "The WWE
coerces its wrestlers to work
while they are injured by, among other
methods, threatening to strip them of their
position within the organization if they refuse."
It says they are "universally encouraged to
'wrestle through the pain.'" And the lawsuit
mentions Chris Benoit,
who was "routinely hit in the head with a
chair." Benoit, who killed his wife and son
along with himself, was autopsied after his
death. A doctor concluded Benoit's brain was so
damaged from CTE, it "resembled the brain of
an 85-year-old Alzheimer's patient." The suit
asks for an
injunction, prohibiting the WWE from
subjecting its wrestlers to such brutality, along
with damages.

That's not their business. Quit the job if you can't do it. Simple. That's what we pay to see.
