ECW Original Joins Buff Bagwell WWE Royalty Lawsuit
The Wrestling Observery Newsletter reports that Scott Levy (aka former ECW Superstar Raven) has joined Marcus “Buff” Bagwell’s lawsuit against WWE as a co-plantiff. Bagwell’s lawsuit was filed last month in the US District Court of Connecticut and in it he claims that he is owed royalties for matches that air on the WWE Network.
Meltzer notes that the last royalty check that Levy received from WWE totaled $130.83. They are claiming that WWE’s book keeping is questionable and that they were not able to audit it.
