Judge Orders Discovery in Case Tied to Vince McMahon’s Doctor as Janel Grant Seeks Medical Records

Janel Grant just scored a major legal victory against Vince McMahon’s longtime doctor, Dr. Carlon Colker, and his company, Peak Wellness.

A Connecticut Superior Court judge has officially ordered both Colker and his clinic to turn over critical evidence, including medical records and internal communications tied to Grant’s ongoing federal case against McMahon and WWE.

Grant originally sued Colker and Peak Wellness after claiming they refused to provide medical records needed for her federal lawsuit—despite multiple requests made by her legal team in spring 2024. Colker argued that those records were handed over the same day her suit was filed, but Judge Colleen Zingaro wasn’t convinced.

In a court order issued June 27 and filed July 8, Zingaro made it crystal clear:

“The parties are ordered to submit proposed scheduling orders for interrogatories and objections thereto, requests for production and objections thereto and deposition notices and objections thereto pursuant to court order 116.01.”

The ruling means discovery is officially on—and it could open the door to documents that Grant’s legal team says are essential. Grant is demanding the following from Colker and Peak Wellness:

• Her full electronic medical records, including metadata
• Details of Colker’s billing practices and payment arrangements with McMahon or WWE
• Notes on the purpose and content of her prescribed treatments
• Internal communications between Colker and McMahon related to her care
• Documentation about Colker’s alleged role in connecting her with an attorney to negotiate the non-disclosure agreement with McMahon

In her lawsuit, Grant also accused a Peak Wellness employee of taking part in a sex act with her and McMahon on company property—an encounter that reportedly ended with McMahon defecating on her. That employee is no longer with the company, according to filings by the defense.

Colker and his clinic were named repeatedly in Grant’s initial federal complaint and a later amended version. Despite McMahon and WWE pushing to move the case to arbitration, Grant is fighting back, arguing that the NDA’s arbitration clause is illegal under federal employment laws tied to sexual harassment and assault.

For now, McMahon’s camp wants the court to view the NDA as valid since it was signed post-employment. But Grant’s team says that doesn’t matter when sex trafficking and abuse are involved.

With discovery now in motion, Colker and Peak Wellness will have to answer questions they’ve been dodging—and what they reveal could directly affect the outcome of the paused federal case.
