Vince McMahon is facing yet another lawsuit -- this time, the former WWE honcho is being accused of ignoring claims of sexual abuse made by former employees known as "Ring Boys."

The docs were filed in Baltimore County Wednesday ... with Vince's wife, Linda McMahon, WWE and its ownership, TKO Group, also named in the lawsuit.

In the suit .... it alleges Melvin Phillips Jr. -- who served as the ring crew chief and ringside announcer -- hired underaged boys to assist the crew with errands and tasks for wrestling shows.

Artem Chigvintsev has walked away with his best-case scenario following a 2-hour hearing in his Nikki Garcia (AKA Bella) divorce case ... TMZ has learned.

According to docs obtained by TMZ ... the professional dancer and the retired WWE star had a hearing in the Napa County, California court Tuesday, where a judge ordered the exes to share custody of their son, 4-year-old Matteo.

This was certainly the outcome the "Dancing with the Stars" alum was hoping for ... as he previously requested joint custody when he filed his divorce response in September.

The woman suing Vince McMahon over allegations he sexually abused her is now targeting a Connecticut doctor with ties to the former WWE honcho ... claiming she was sexually abused at the physician's clinic.

Attorneys for accuser Janel Grant, 44, filed a motion in a CT court on Tuesday ... demanding doc Carlon Colker's office turn over any records relating to her care at Peak Wellness, his practice.

Grant claims McMahon, along with a Peak Wellness physical therapist, sexually abused her at the medical clinic -- including one instance in which McMahon defecated on her head and forced her to engage in a sexual act with the employee.

She also claims Dr. Colker "repeatedly medicated" her with "unknown substances."

Grant claims Vince sent her to the facility after she was dealing with severe stress and trauma that stemmed from her alleged abuse.

A WILD moment went down during the main event of WWE's Monday Night Raw ... as superstars Braun Strowman and Bronson Reed fought in an epic Last Man Standing match -- which ended with the entire ring collapsing!!!

It happened when Reed -- who weighs in at 330 pounds -- and Strowman -- who tips the scales at 385 -- made their way to the top rope. Once the two got into position, Reed brought their combined 715 pounds crashing down to the mat -- leading to all hell breaking loose!

Still, we're sure it wasn't an easy decision to part ways with the impressive abode. Not only has the estate been heavily featured on the couple's USA Network show, "Miz & Mrs," but the home boasts 10,400 square feet of living space and they just completed a massive renovation.

Kid Rock, Ric Flair, and Donald Trump Jr. walk into a bar ... but this isn't a joke.

He continues, "He enjoys tremendous support from the community, and requests privacy for the pending divorce matter. He loves his son, wants the best possible for him, and looks forward to the next chapter in his life professionally and as a father."

Artem Chigvintsev will NOT be prosecuted after his arrest on suspicion of felony domestic violence.

Prosecutors say they decided not to pursue criminal charges after reviewing the investigation and evaluating all the evidence.

Wrestling legend Ric Flair and his wife, Wendy Barlow, are ending their marriage ... after the two tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony six years ago.

"I think it's important for everyone to know right now that we have decided to part ways respectfully," Flair said.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy says he's going to wait before vilifying Artem Chigvintsev for his domestic violence arrest ... saying his alleged actions don't jibe with the man he knows -- though he will hold him accountable if they turn out to be true.

MC says the Artem he knows would never abuse a woman ... but, he also texted Artem and told him if he did hit his wife Nikki Bella, then he needed to accept responsibility for his actions.

If basketball ends anytime soon for NBA star Tyrese Haliburton ... he's clearly got a career in the wrestling world -- as during another WWE appearance on Tuesday, he played the heel role perfectly, taking a swipe at Orlando Magic fans!!

Haliburton wasn't alone, though ... he rolled to the squared circle with a ton of his Pacers teammates -- and when the Florida fans weren't happy to see him, he showed off his villain skills on the mic.
