#2 Billy Jack Haynes sues company over lack of protection for wrestlers

Billy Jack Haynes sued WWE over mistreatment of wrestlers

I know about this lawsuit first hand – because it was just dismissed in court earlier this year, but also because Haynes accused me of being a mark for the McMahons when I attempted to interview him about the lawsuit. Haynes was a popular wrestler in both Oregon and Florida before moving to WWE in 1986. He alleges Vince McMahon is the reason for the deaths of several wrestlers, including Chris Benoit and his family. He also said he contracted Hepatitis-C while wrestling Hercules Hernandez.

In October of 2014, Haynes filed a lawsuit in federal court against WWE, alleging "egregious mistreatment of its wrestlers for its own benefit, as well as its concealment and denial of medical research and evidence concerning traumatic brain injuries suffered by WWE wrestlers."
