, five former WWE ring boys–the industry term for teens who helped put the ring together at shows–have filed a case alleging that McMahon and WWE ******* to protect them from being ********* ********* exploited by former ring announcer Melvin Phillips Jr., who ***** in 2012. At the time of the alleged *******, the victims were all underage, with some as young as 12 and 13 years old. The suit contends that McMahon fired Phillips over the initial allegations in 1988, only to rehire him with a condition to “steer away from kids.” Phillips reportedly continued to ****** his victims after returning to WWE.

“The underaged ring boys were groomed, exploited, and ********* abused by Phillips. who targeted children from broken homes,” said the law firms DiCello Levitt and Murphy, Falcon & Murphy, which are representing the victims in the case. McMahon is accused of personally being aware of Phillips’ “peculiar and unnatural interest” in underage boys.

McMahon was forced out of WWE after a separate lawsuit was filed that accused him of ********* trafficking and exploiting one of his former employees. That case is currently on hold pending an investigation by the Justice Department.
