Brock Lesnar accused of sexual harassment
“Brock did something that if it was in today’s day and time…You know,” She said on the KEE On Sports Podcast. He showed his p**** to me and called my name as I was walking past where he was in the dressing room and opened his towel so I could see his manly bits.
‘I would have much rather him not be so disrespectful of a female that’s been in this business for as long as I have been. He knew he was gonna have a lot of power, that they were gonna give him the strap but at that point, I’d been in this business a long time.
‘I have respect and what he did was very very wrong. From a respect standpoint, from a sexual harassment standpoint, it was wrong.”
This wasn’t the first time Runnels spoke of the incident. She had earlier narrated the incident back in 2004 with Wade Keller of (PWTorch).
