Front Office Sports first reported the identifications, which were later confirmed to Fox News Digital.

"Yes, I can confirm that these names are correct," Ann Callis, an attorney for accuser Janel Grant, said in a statement.

WWE didn’t comment when asked by Fox News Digital.

A WWE spokesperson told Front Office Sports: "WWE takes Ms. Grant’s allegations very seriously and has no tolerance for any physical abuse or unwanted physical contact. Neither Nick Khan nor Brad Blum, prior to the lawsuit being filed on January 25, 2024, were aware of any allegation by Ms. Grant that she was the victim of abuse or unwanted physical contact; nor does the complaint allege that either had knowledge of such."

Khan, Blum, Stephanie McMahon and Nurse do not face any explicit claims of knowing about the alleged sexual abuse that occurred to Grant. The lawsuit claimed that they "covered up exploitation in ways that make WWE liable under federal anti-trafficking law," according to Front Office Sports.
