World Wrestling Entertainment filed a lawsuit on 2/3 against Interactive S.P.A. based out of Italy for breach of contract in regard to money owed to the company for licensing WWE Television to Interactive for Italian cable networks Sportitalia Channel and SI Live and for the rights to an Italian language version of the WWE website. WWE is alleging they are owed $551,087.50 for television rights that are past due and $129,752.20 for website rights, plus interest. WWE is asking the State of Connecticut, where the lawsuit was filed, for a jury trial. Interactive S.P.A. has yet to respond to the lawsuit as of this writing.
