Vince McMahon accuser Janel Grant ‘asked him for rough sex’: lawsuit

The woman suing Vince McMahon for sex trafficking and abuse allegedly sent the wrestling mogul racy text messages in which she said she “fantasized about being held down” and “wanted rough sex” from him, according to a court filing.

Janel Grant — the former WWE employee who accused McMahon of forcing her to have sex with him and other company executives during threesomes and allegedly defecating on her head — was accused in court papers of sending sexually explicit images of herself to McMahon.

In court documents filed by McMahon’s lawyers, Grant is also alleged to have told McMahon via text that she “enjoyed being in pain” and that she wanted the now-former WWE boss to “watch her have sex with other people and know about her sex with others.”

Grant, who worked at WWE between June 2019 and March 2022, is also alleged to have asked McMahon for thousands of dollars worth of clothes as well as money for plastic surgery and other gifts, according to the court filing.

She even texted McMahon that she sought to continue living in the same apartment building as him so that they could continue to see each other — even after she signed a nondisclosure agreement that prevented her from publicly speaking about their relationship in 2022.

McMahon’s lawyers did not provide screenshots of the text messages or verbatim transcripts. According to the filing, McMahon deleted the text messages when “he broke off the relationship” with Grant.

A spokesperson for Grant declined to comment.

McMahon’s lawyers on Monday filed a motion in court responding to a request from Grant’s attorneys who sought to strike down the defendant’s claim that their dispute should be heard in binding arbitration rather than in court.

Grant filed suit in January alleging that she was assaulted and trafficked by McMahon and another WWE executive, John Laurinaitis.

She filed the lawsuit in Connecticut federal court after McMahon allegedly paid just $1 million of the $3 million that he pledged as part of a “hush money” agreement about their relationship.

Grant sought to invalidate the nondisclosure agreement where she initially made her bombshell allegations.

McMahon, who stepped down as WWE CEO after Grant filed the lawsuit, has denied the allegations, claiming that their relationship was consensual.

Earlier this month, Brad Blum stepped down as WWE’s chief operating officer.

Blum, who is not named as a defendant in Grant’s lawsuit, was identified in court papers as one of the executives who allegedly arranged for Grant to be employed “in a completely undefined role, except for the understanding that she remain a sexual slave to be used and trafficked by McMahon within the WWE.”

WWE has stated that none of its executives were aware of Grant’s allegations before she filed her lawsuit in January.

Lawyers for McMahon allege that Grant wrote McMahon a “love letter” in which she declared that she was “in love with a capital L.”

Grant’s representatives countered that she was coerced into writing the letters.

McMahon has also alleged that Grant, who lived in the same condominium building in Stamford, Conn., would sneak into her then-boss’ penthouse apartment late at night for sex before returning to her ex-fiancé’s place located just a few floors down.

Grant’s lawyer Ann Callis said her client and attorney Brian Goncalves had called off their engagement and that he “allowed her to stay in the apartment as she rebuilt her life.”

McMahon’s filing last month also alleged that Grant fabricated aspects of her life story — including lying about “devoting years to around-the-clock caregiving” of her dying parents and “struggling financially” when they met.

“Vince McMahon has never known a storyline that he doesn’t twist to fit his own shameful narrative,” Callis told The Post last month.

Earlier this month, Laurinaitis, 61, filed a motion in Connecticut federal court in which he sided with McMahon despite initially suggesting that he sympathized with Grant.

Laurinaitis “will fight these false allegations together with Mr. McMahon in the proper forum, arbitration,” his lawyer, Edward Brennan, said in a statement.

In her lawsuit, Grant alleged that Laurinaitis was “recruited” by McMahon to join them in threesomes. McMahon is alleged to have “pressed Ms. Grant to make explicit photos and videos to send to Laurinaitis.”

Grant alleged that she was told to pick up a key to Laurinaitis’ hotel room and to serve herself to him as “breakfast” before the start of work, according to the lawsuit.

She also alleged in her court filing that McMahon and Laurinaitis took her into Laurinaitis’ office, locked the door, and “cornered her and pulled her in between them” and “forcibly touched her, before ultimately putting her on top of a table in between them.”

“She begged them to stop, but they forced themselves on her, each taking turns restraining her for the other, while saying ‘No means yes’ and ‘Take it, bitch’,” it was alleged in Grant’s lawsuit.

Days after Grant’s lawsuit was filed, McMahon resigned from his role as executive chairman of TKO Group, the corporate parent born out of the merger between WWE and Zuffa, the subsidiary of Ari Emanuel’s Endeavor agency which owns the Ultimate Fighting Championship series.

In July 2022, The Wall Street Journal reported that McMahon paid more than $12 million to four different women over a period of 16 years to keep them from speaking out about alleged sexual misconduct.
