SUMMARY
- Vince McMahon reportedly threatened to fire WWE legend Lita (Amy Dumas) if she refused to participate in the 'Live S*x Celebration' segment on television.
- Following the incident, Lita left WWE and has since been living her life outside the wrestling ring.
Vince McMahon has made a lot of headlines throughout his career. In fact, he is currently a major topic of discussion within the pro wrestling universe. Previously, he infamously made headlines when he threatened to fire a female WWE legend for not being willing to carry out s*xual acts on television.
The WWE legend in question is none other than Lita. Previously, Lita was featured in an onscreen romantic storyline with Edge. During that, at New Year’s Revolution 2006, the Rated-R Superstar defeated John Cena to win his first WWE Championship. Following this, Copeland decided to celebrate his win by having a live s*x celebration inside the ring along with Lita.
However, it was later revealed by Lita herself that she was not willing to perform the ‘Live S*x Celebration‘ on TV. With that, reports of the conversation between Vince McMahon and Lita prior to the segment came into the spotlight. McMahon reportedly said, “So Amy, to celebrate Adam’s title win last night, you’ll go to that ring tonight and have s*x in front of 15k fans and millions of TV viewers.”

Replying to that, the WWE star said that she didn’t feel comfortable doing that. However, the WWE executive said, “If you don’t do that, you’re fired.” It was also reported that several WWE Superstars and executives tried to stop the segment from taking place, but McMahon was adamant about going ahead with it.
That resulted in the segment ultimately taking place on WWE television. Thus, it seems Vince threatened to fire WWE Hall of Famer Lita for her unwillingness to perform s*xual acts on TV. With that, Lita is no longer a part of WWE and has been living her life outside the squared circle.
Former WWE employee Janel Grant accuses Vince McMahon of s*x trafficking
Vince McMahon is once again in the headlines at present. On January 25, a former WWE employee named Janel Grant accused McMahon of s*x trafficking in a lawsuit. According to the lawsuit, Grant was abused and s*xually exploited by Vince during his time as the Chief Executive of WWE.
Grant further stated that McMahon made career advancement promises to her and then exploited her. Not only that, Vince also trafficked Janel to other men within the Stamford-based promotion. This doesn’t end here, as Grant revealed that back in June 2021, McMahon, along with another WWE higher-up, locked her in an office.

Following that, the men took turns and s*xually assaulted Grant. Apart from that, she also highlighted several other instances where McMahon exploited her in various ways. The lawsuit also highlights another day in June 2021, when Vince locked Janel inside his locker room.
He then forced himself on her inside the room. The lawsuit also mentioned that later, Vince sent Bloomingdale’s gift cards to Janel on the same day worth $15,000. With that, it remains to be seen what other details of the new lawsuit will come into the spotlight in the upcoming days.
