The WWE is once again in the spotlight for a controversial reason, not a month after it was sold to Endeavor. Just a year after the company had to disclose alleged hush money payments made by Vince McMahon, it is now facing a lawsuit from a former writer. According to the claims, the WWE used racial and stereotypical storylines during her tenure and wrongfully terminated her in retaliation for speaking out about it.
Britney Abrahams worked for the WWE between 2020 and 2022 and has now filed a lawsuit against her former employer for "discriminatory treatment, harassment, hostile work environment, wrongful termination, and unlawful retaliation against the Plaintiff due to her race, color, and gender." A court document (via Brandon Thurston) reveals that Abrahams mentioned specific racist or stereotypical pitches that made it to television in her lawsuit, which involved Raw Women's Champion Bianca Belair and superstar Apollo Crews.
