That pretty much was the entire basis of this lawsuit where the wrestlers, especially the 80s and 90s, claim they were not fully aware of the long term risks and claim WWE had more knowledge but purposely kept that info in the dark. What was also damaging to the WWE is their head of medical being the same doctor who was the head of medical in NFL and is a known denier of CTE studies. The stuff involving Daniel Bryan being a big indicator of WWE's head doctor being untrustworthy with CTE and concussion diagnosis.

The wrestlers unfortunate had such a terrible lawyer representing them that whatever legit claims they might have had, got washed away due to the lawyer's antics and terrible law skills.
