Two LGBTQ+ couples recently sued the MGM Resorts International after they were assaulted in June 2025 outside the MGM Grand Detroit while waiting for the valet to bring their car.

Wilson reportedly pulled out his phone to record the two couples and then hit Way in the face before shouting homophobic slurs at the group and using a collection of pronouns in a mocking way.
