TMZ reports that the WWE has responded to the lawsuit from Matt Osbourne’s mother, who claims they didn’t do enough to protect his health when he competed for them as Doink the Clown after he suffered several concussions. He died in 2013 from a drug overdose.
WWE has denied the claims and said she wants a “pay day” due to the encouragement of her lawyers. A representative said: “WWE filed a lawsuit in Connecticut to protect the company from a series of fraudulent claims made by a Massachusetts attorney regarding alleged concussion related injuries. It’s unfortunate that some former performers have been improperly recruited under the guise of a big ‘pay day,’ and we feel badly that these individuals are being misled and exploited.”
Osbourne’s mother is still pursing the case in Texas.
