Rita Chatterton ring name: She is known for being the first ever female referee in the WWF, possibly in pro wrestling history. On April 3,Chatterton made an appearance on Geraldo Rivera 's television show - Now It Can Be Told - alleging that on July 16, McMahon tried to force her to perform oral sex on him in his limousine and, after her rebuttal, subjected her to rape. On February 1,McMahon was accused of sexual harassment by a worker at a Boca Raton, Florida tanning bar.

It was soon clarified that the alleged incident was reported to police on the day of the Rumble, but actually took place the day before.

InMcMahon was indicted in federal court after a steroid controversy engulfed the promotion and thus temporarily ceded control of the WWF to his wife Linda. Wacholz testified that McMahon had ordered him to use steroids, but his credibility was called into question during his testimony as he made it clear he "hated" McMahon. The jury acquitted McMahon of the charges and he resumed his role in the day-to day operations of the WWF.
