10 Most Ridiculous Lawsuits In Wrestling

WWE.com

Frivolous lawsuits are ten a penny these days, people practically queuing up to litigate against one another for the most spurious reasons: like the California city that sued the manufacturers of a taser when one of their police officers drew her gun instead of her taser and shot a suspect to death; or the convict who sued himself for 5 million dollars, claiming that in committing a crime that he was imprisoned for, he’d violated his own civil liberties.

Often the motivations behind the silliest lawsuits you’ve ever heard of are the real story, though – just as in pro wrestling, sometimes the story behind an angle is sometimes more interesting than the angle itself. So it’s always fascinating reading when people who engage in a worked business, playing different, outrageously exaggerated versions of themselves and blurring the line between reality and fiction for a living, are forced to engage in the ultimate version of a shoot and agree to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

There’s also a fine line between fantasy and delusion, as you’ll see from some of these examples of the most ridiculous lawsuits in wrestling.
