SUPREME COURT DECLINES HEARING ARGUMENTS TO RESURRECT WWE CONCUSSION LAWSUIT

By Mike Johnson on 2021-04-26 10:54:00

The United States Supreme Court of Connecticut officially declined to hear arguments from attorney Konstantine Kyros in his attempt to resurrect the dismissed WWE concussion lawsuits, PWInsider.com has confirmed.

The previous dismissals of the case had been held up in appeals court.  This would have been a last ditch effort to get the Supreme Court to hear arguments on why the cases should be re-opened, but with the court declining to take part, this would mean that the case is absolutely, 100% done, with the exception of courts deciding how much financial restitution Kyros will be ordered to pay WWE as a result of previous sanctions ordered against him.
