Meltzer has written that she claimed (at the time) to the locker room that the encounter was consensual, so she intentionally blurred the truth. Not sure what she had to gain from that?
Only during the press of the Geraldo interview, did she bring up her side of the story again. Dave also relayed a story from a wrestler (apparently a hater of McMahon) that talked to Chatterton, and that he also believed everything didn’t add up.
From her phrasing in the interview, it made it seem like she really didn’t want too much of the past to be dragged out into the open. Probably she didn’t want her story to be scrutinized as it has been?
The part about Vince offering her $500k a year is absolutely batshit insane. It feels like a worker trying to work the media with a Hogan-like story. Or maybe she had a consensual relationship that lasted beyond this encounter, which is where he proposed that number. That lines up with the current story of the paralegal getting a 2x raise for no discernible reason other than sex.
