Kevin Owens On Vince McMahon Allegations: It’s Shameful And Can’t Ever Happen Again
Kevin Owens speaks on Vince McMahon allegations.
On January 25, former WWE employee Janel Grant filed a lawsuit against WWE, John Laurinaitis, and Vince McMahon, alleging sexual assault, emotional abuse, and sex trafficking. The lawsuit alleges that McMahon used his power and status over Grant, forcing her into uncomfortable acts and situations.
The lawsuit recounts incidents that began in March 2019 when the two met, to March 2022.
Kevin Owens worked with Vince McMahon off-screen and on-screen, famously headbutting him on a September 2017 episode of WWE SmackDown.
Speaking to Alex McCarthy of Daily Mail, Owens spoke out against the allegations.
“Everything that has come out is awful. Just terrible,” Owens started. “There’s really no words to describe how sad this makes me feel. If the people spoke out went through what they went through, that’s terrible. It’s shameful and it can’t ever happen again. That’s what it comes down to.”
McMahon resigned from his position as TKO Executive Chairman after the allegations came out and Slim Jim paused its promotional partnership.
