As noted last week, former WWE performer Rene Goguen (Rene Dupree) filed a class action lawsuit against the WWE because of unpaid royalties, from both the WWE Network and Netflix.
Plaintiff Rene Goguen (“Plaintiff”) brings this action on behalf of himself and all similarly situated individuals who have not received contractually owed royalty payments from World Wrestling Entertainment (“WWE”) for certain content that has been sold or licensed by the WWE on the World Wrestling Entertainment Network (“WWE Network”) and on Netflix.
In an update, Goguen’s lawyer pulled the lawsuit on Monday. Goguen most likely decided not to follow through with the lawsuit due a contract he signed in 2011 which addressed the issue (unpaid royalties) in question.
