Vince McMahon Slams ‘Mr. McMahon’ Netflix Docuseries Ahead of Release

As a long-time fan of WWE, I have always admired Vince McMahon for his incredible ability to turn a small regional wrestling promotion into a global entertainment empire. His story is one of ambition, resilience, and innovation, filled with drama, fun, and yes, controversy.


Vince McMahon, the ex-CEO of WWE, has expressed dissatisfaction after watching the forthcoming Netflix documentary series that chronicles his life.

On Monday, the wrestling promoter shared a statement online, revealing he’d just reviewed an “initial rough cut” of the upcoming documentary. He expressed his concerns that, as it stands now, the film fails to deliver and follows a typical pattern by confusing the “Mr. McMahon” persona with his real self, Vince. The title and promotional materials alone suggest this misrepresentation.

On Wednesday, a Netflix documentary will premiere, chronicling McMahon’s journey as he transformed his father’s local wrestling business into a multinational entertainment empire. Yet, it delves deeper, shedding light on the shadowy aspects of the industry. This includes the steroid abuse scandal that hit the company in the 90s and the sexual misconduct accusations that resulted in his recent departure.

McMahon stated on Monday that crucial information has been either distorted or omitted deliberately to confuse viewers. Producers employ common editing techniques such as using footage out of context and using old soundbites to manipulate the audience’s understanding and reinforce a deceptive narrative. Additionally, they attempt to bolster their misleading portrayal by citing a lawsuit stemming from an affair I had as proof that I am indeed ‘Mr. McMahon.’

McMahon stated furthermore that he has no regrets about being part of the Netflix documentary. The creators had the chance to portray an unbiased account of my life and the remarkable business I established, which was filled with excitement, drama, amusement, as well as a suitable dose of controversy and valuable lessons.

He expressed his hope that the audience would maintain an unbiased perspective, recognizing that each tale has its own perspectives.
