Laurinaitis says that he was threatened with fines for wearing jeans on an airplane and for changing a 7:00am flight to a later departure.
John also alleges that there was little-to-no treatment by WWE doctors at ringside. Laurinaitis sustained numerous head injuries during his matches and specifically recalls at least four major concussions he suffered throughout his tenure with WWE. He claims he was double-suplexed while performing with The Beverly Brothers in 1992, which caused an impact that herniated two discs.
Also included in his complaint, he stated that Shawn Michaels powerbombed him in 1997, immediately after returning from a major neck injury.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
