Unusual Lawsuit Involving The Rock and MJ
In an unexpected turn of events, former TNA talent Rhaka Khan, also known as Trenesha Biggers, filed a lawsuit against multiple wrestling bodies and personalities, which included Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Michael Jordan. The legal case sought a staggering $3 billion in damages and alleged a conspiracy involving kidnapping.
In 2019, authorities indicted Rhaka Khan on charges of interfering with child custody and facilitating aggravated kidnapping. Following several missed arraignments, an arrest warrant was issued against her, leading to her arraignment in December 2022. It was during this time that she filed the lawsuit, accusing various defendants, including Dwayne Johnson and Michael Jordan, of conspiring to “kidnap the plaintiff and her children.”
The lawsuit gained approval in February, but as of now, none of the defendants have received legal notices regarding the case. Filed in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York in October 2022, the lawsuit targets wrestling promoters, personalities, government bodies, and other entities. This legal situation has caused an unexpected twist in the lives of both Dwayne Johnson and Michael Jordan.
