| An 18-year-old man is suing WWE and naming "The Rock" Dwayne Johnson and Triple H as defendants for damages resulting from a PPV match over ten years ago.
The Courier-Journal newspaper in Louisville reports the man, who was seven-years-old at the time of the Judgment Day PPV in May 2000, is claiming he was injured during a mid-match brawl between Rock and Hunter during their 60-minute Iron Man match.
The man, identified as "Basham," says he was ringside at Freedom Hall in Louisville, Ky. for the PPV event. Basham claims that Rock shoved a spectator into a woman, causing the woman to fall on top of him. Basham said in the suit that he sustained right leg and knee injuries.
Despite the PPV occurring over ten years, the attorney for Basham claims the statute of limitations to file the lawsuit do not apply because of Basham's age at the time of the event.
Basham's complaint is WWE did not "properly stage the match and provide adequate security for its customers." Rock and Hunter are accused of “reckless, willful, and wanton conduct.”
The amount of damages Basham is seeking were not disclosed in the Courier-Journal report. Basham has requested a jury trial and compensatory and punitive damages.
A WWE spokesperson said they need to review the lawsuit and circumstances surrounding the alleged incident before commenting on the suit.
-- Reviewing video of the 60-minute Iron Man match, Rock and Hunter took the fight into the crowd on one occasion and fought near the ringside guardrails on several occasions.
During the fight in the crowd around the 20:00 mark of the match, the cameras momentarily lost sight of the action as chaos broke out ringside. After the wrestlers returned to ringside, the fans in the area continued to focus on one spot for the next 5-10 minutes. The lawsuit apparently does not specify at which point in the match the brawl took place or which section Basham was seated when he allegedly sustained the injuries.

| Whatever the intention, he was seven at the time and couldn't pursue legal action until he reached legal age. If he was undoubtedly hurt, they will have to pay up regardless. Although one can easily argue that if he was really hurt, why didn't his parents pursue this when it happened? | |

| ^ Exactly.
His parents probably told him to get over it [which he needs to do] but his persistent ass had to go through with it.
I hope wwe's legal team can crush this little fuck in court! | |
