Janel Grant Accused of Being an “Opportunist” in WWE Lawsuit Against Vince McMahon

As the legal case between former WWE paralegal Janel Grant and Vince McMahon continues to develop in court, Jasmin St. Claire has weighed in—and she’s not holding back.

On Friday, U.S. District Judge Sarah F. Russell denied Grant’s request for early discovery in the lawsuit, but left the door open for her to refile after WWE and McMahon formally move to compel arbitration. While the legal ruling was procedural, it reignited online discussion surrounding Grant’s explosive allegations—and Jasmin St. Claire added her voice to the conversation with two heated posts on X. In her first response, St. Claire accused Grant of manipulating the situation for personal gain.

“She was an opportunist. Did you see the list of gifts that he was giving her over that duration of time? She stayed in it for as long as she could and maybe he either didn’t give her what she wanted or she had buyer’s remorse. But there’s no way this girl was a victim.”

She followed up with a second post condemning women who break NDAs after accepting settlements.

“A lot of these girls that sign NDA’s, then breaking it after taking the money puts doing business with women back by hundreds of years. It shows that a lot of them can’t be trusted.”

Grant filed the lawsuit in January 2024, alleging sexual abuse, trafficking, and coercion by McMahon and negligence by WWE. Her claims led to McMahon’s resignation from WWE and TKO corporate positions. McMahon has denied all allegations. Grant was paid $3 million in a prior NDA, but argues that agreement was signed under coercive conditions and should not bind her case to private arbitration.

Friday’s court decision does not determine the validity of Grant’s allegations or whether the case stays public. It simply pauses her request to gather evidence before WWE and McMahon formally respond. Judge Russell stated that the court is “expressing no opinion” on Grant’s upcoming arguments to avoid arbitration—but the spotlight is far from dimming.

Now, with public figures like Jasmin St. Claire taking such strong positions online, the case continues to stir heated debate both inside and outside the wrestling world.

Do you agree with Jasmin St. Claire’s take on Janel Grant’s lawsuit, or do you believe this case deserves to stay in the public eye and go to trial? Sound off in the comments and let us know what you think.
