Vince McMahon lawsuit heats up: Janel Grant opposes Dr. Carlon Colker in legal battle against former WWE CEO

In a significant development in the ongoing legal battle involving Janel Grant and Vince McMahon , Grant's legal team filed a new motion on October 15, 2024, opposing Dr. Carlon Colker , a physician at the Peak Wellness Clinic . This latest filing raises serious allegations against both Colker and McMahon, shedding light on a troubling narrative of medical misconduct and abuse.

Allegations Against McMahon and Dr. Colker


The press release accompanying the motion outlines a disturbing pattern of behavior, alleging that Vince McMahon unlawfully accessed Grant’s private medical records. It further claims that Dr. Colker, who was previously on McMahon’s payroll, colluded with the WWE executive in the sexual abuse of Grant. The lawsuit alleges that while Grant was suffering from severe stress and trauma—largely due to her abusive experiences—McMahon coerced her into scheduling multiple appointments at Peak Wellness.

The allegations describe an alarming dynamic where McMahon had direct contact with Dr. Colker, reportedly dictating Grant’s treatment plan and exerting undue influence over her medical care. The filing indicates that a physical therapist at Peak Wellness participated in the abuse, highlighting a particularly egregious incident where McMahon is accused of defecating on Grant's head and compelling her to continue engaging in a sexual act with the clinic's employee.


Repeated Medical Interventions from Dr. Colker
The lawsuit claims that between November 22, 2019, and April 15, 2022, Grant was sent to the Peak Wellness Clinic over 60 times. During these visits, she allegedly received multiple medical interventions, including medications administered by Dr. Colker that were unknown to her. The allegations point to a concerning disregard for ethical medical practices, as Grant reportedly received intravenous medications and unlabeled pills while her basic questions regarding these substances were dismissed.


Legal Representation and Ethical Violations


In a statement released to the press, Grant's attorney, Ann Callis, condemned Dr. Colker's actions, asserting, “Imagine being at your most vulnerable, and the doctor you are told to see only makes you feel worse.” Callis emphasized that the filing makes it clear Colker violated ethical and medical standards, calling for accountability from Peak Wellness. She stated, “Peak Wellness owes Janel Grant answers, and the clinic’s secrecy and evasion must come to an end.”

Bill of Discovery Filed
Earlier this year, in July, Grant’s attorneys filed a bill of discovery against Dr. Colker, seeking access to medical records and all communications between Colker and McMahon concerning Grant’s treatment. However, Dr. Colker responded with a motion to dismiss this request on August 29, creating a roadblock in the pursuit of crucial information.

In the latest motion, Grant’s attorneys are seeking detailed information from Dr. Colker and the Peak Wellness Clinic across eight specific categories:

1. Electronic Medical Records: Complete electronic medical records for Grant, along with associated metadata.

2. Recordkeeping and Billing Procedures: Documentation of recordkeeping practices and billing protocols at Peak Wellness.

3. Payment Records: Detailed payment records related to Grant’s treatments.

4. Payment Arrangements with McMahon: Information about payment arrangements between Dr. Colker, Peak Wellness, and McMahon or WWE.

5. Purpose of Prescribed Treatments: Clarification on the purpose behind Grant’s prescribed treatments.

6. Substance of Prescribed Treatments: Detailed information regarding the substances prescribed to Grant during her treatment.

7. Communications Between Colker and McMahon: Any communication between Dr. Colker and Vince McMahon relating to Grant’s medical care.

8. Recommendation of Attorney: Documentation regarding Colker’s involvement in recommending Grant’s attorney for negotiating a purported non-disclosure agreement.


The legal proceedings surrounding Janel Grant's case continue to unfold, with serious allegations against Vince McMahon and Dr. Carlon Colker highlighting the complexities of abuse, medical ethics, and accountability in the realm of professional wrestling. As the case progresses, the public awaits further developments that may bring to light more about the disturbing circumstances surrounding Grant's treatment and the actions of those involved. The outcome of this lawsuit could have significant implications not only for Grant but also for the broader discussions around medical ethics and the protection of vulnerable individuals within the healthcare system.
