Vince McMahon reportedly paid a multimillion-dollar settlement to former referee Rita Chatterton, though he continues to deny her sexual assault allegations.
\nVince McMahon has reportedly settled with Rita Chatterton for millions of dollars in response to longstanding allegations he raped the WWE's first female referee in the 1980s, according to the Wall Street Journal. Chatterton was demanding $11.5 million from McMahon in light of new laws that temporarily remove the statute of limitations in sexual assault cases, but the report claims McMahon settled for less than that.
\nAccording to WSJ, McMahon continues to deny the sexual assault allegations, with his longtime lawyer, Jerry McDevitt, saying McMahon made the settlement to avoid legal costs. However, it's worth noting that making the matter go away helps pave the way for McMahon to potentially continue to hold a leadership position in WWE after its sale, especially if it's sold to a major media conglomerate like Comcast, as opposed to the government of Saudi Arabia .
