Jerry McDevitt, longtime attorney for World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), has publicly responded to the recent lawsuit brought against WWE, one filed by the family of the late Matt Osbourne, better known to 1990s WWE fans as the character “Doink The Clown.”
McDevitt claims Osbourne’s family, much like the other families of former WWE performers are, “being targeted by attorneys who tell [wrestlers and their families] there’s hundreds of thousands of dollars” to be made from lawsuits similar to those recently filed against the National Football League (NFL).
In addition to that, McDevitt stated that the lawsuits have no merit, noting, “They’re all different from the NFL. We never had anyone claim they had these kinds of injuries until [these attorneys] did it. They find the destitute, people who have no money, and told them there’s money to be made. That’s what is going on. … And I feel bad for these families, because they think they’ll make money off of this, and they’re not.”
