Big Law Suit Between SoBe and WWE is sure to raise the stakes

SoBe Entertainment International (SEI) filed a suit against the WWE wrestler, The Big Show, his wife and the WWE for breach of contract. The lawsuit claims that World Wrestling Entertainment, “tortiously interfered with the contractual relationship” between Mr. Wight (Big Show) and SEI. According to the contract with SEI, Wight signed “to act as a performer, entertainer, actor, boxer, wrestler, athlete and celebrity person for a five-year period covering March 1, 2007 through February 27, 2012.”

In November of 2007, Wight told SEI he would no longer honor his contract with them. According to the lawsuit, two months later, Wight signed with the WWE “for professional services he had exclusively contracted for with SoBe.”

SoBe lawyers contacted the WWE and informed them about the contract and told them they were tortiously interfering. In April 2009, they again contacted the WWE and “warned the WWE of Wight’s material breaches and of the WWE’s tortious interference with SoBe’s contractual relationship. And, once again, the WWE disregarded the rights of SoBE by having Wight headline in Wrestlemania.”
