What do Wrestlers/Plaintiffs want WWE to do?

What types of relief do wrestlers want? This is a very basic summary. Ideas for resolving the case include:

1.     Full Health insurance coverage for all Plaintiffs and their families who do not have it or cannot afford it/supplemental polices for people on medicare/medicaid;

2.     Lump sum disability and/or disability payouts based on medical diagnosis- in part based on total number of WWE/ECW/WCW matches/offset by SSDI/SSI;

3.     WWE should pay for Medical monitoring for CTE for all Plaintiffs;

4.     Additional payouts for diagnosed neurological conditions for Plaintiffs with qualifying diagnoses (real issues discovered by a doctor);

5.     WWE should Pay for comprehensive Mortality/Death Rate in Wrestling Study with view to helping lower it;

6.     Program to build and improve outreach to wrestlers in need (expand drug and alcohol program and tie it to overall medical care);

7.     Fair royalty payments and a full accounting to all plaintiffs;

8.     WWE should Correctly classify wrestlers as employees;

9.     WWE should Finance wrestler-specific CTE research (unlike just giving millions to other sports/military CTE studies); and

10.   WWE should give lump sum payments to Plaintiffs with CTE diagnoses after death.
