WWE's Legal Woes Continue with Antitrust Lawsuit from Rival Wrestling League.
TL;DR Summary
A US judge rejected WWE's attempt to dismiss Major League Wrestling's antitrust lawsuit, which accused the company of monopolizing the market for professional wrestling media rights. MLW alleged that WWE uses its dominance to keep rivals from accessing various distributors and arenas, and commands about 92% of revenue from US media rights for pro wrestling. The lawsuit was filed in 2022, and MLW is seeking "substantial" damages for WWE's "many years of egregious anticompetitive behavior."
