Well this is… weird.
According to TMZ, former WWE wrestler Billy Jack Haynes is suing the company because they didn’t protect him from getting Hepatitis C. Wait what?
In the suit, filed in federal court in Oregon, Haynes also blames the WWE for his Hep C diagnosis — saying he contracted the illness during blood-soaked matches with infected wrestlers. Haynes says the WWE is at fault for not doing a better job to protect the wrestlers from exposure. Haynes has brought the suit on behalf of himself and others — he’s demanding more than $5 million.
I mean, I guess. I doubt Haynes will be able to prove WWE is responsibly for him getting Hepatitis C, but crazier things have happened.
