Mr. McMahon

Don't expect a big beat up of Vince McMahon here. Being mostly filmed before the last damaging allegations, this is more a focus on Vince McMahons business mind - and how he swallowed the whole wrestling world under his ruthless ambition and business acumen.

It's at its most interesting giving an insight into the workings of Vince McMahons mind, he reveals more than he needs to at times (including how he has sometimes said things to get ahead and sway/program others as promotion), the other most interesting is the history of WWE. I learnt a lot although some WWE die-hards will prefer the Dark Side of the Ring.

It doesn't shy away from the allegations, and is better for it. Bret Hart, Dave Meltzer and Eric Bischoff are great interviews. Vince is too reserved at times. He's a brilliant mind, and a brilliant villian, but potentially not a good guy. Time will tell so enjoy this documentary for what it is.

The dark side of one of the most entertaining spectales in the world ? YES PLEASE. See the true colors of one of the most impressive self made billionaires and pioneers in modern sports and entertainment. All the controversy and ups and downs that went on through Mcmahon and the industry told broad and openly by the most important , influential and respected people involved. Each episode tackles what each era of the wrestling business dealt with and it's shocking that it never ceased to exist. How can something so pure and real as wrestling have total different face to it once you see it through the eyes of this show. A MUST WATCH.

I was excited to learn there would be a documentary coming out about Mr. McMahon and WWE. I have been a wrestling fan since I was a kid and still in many respects still am. I was fortunate to watch the attitude era when Stone Cold and The Rock electrified the audiences. It was enjoyable to see the history of WWE, Vince Senior and the legacy of superstars over the decades to the present day. There were some big personalities, challenges, the Monday night wars with WCC that made each episode great to watch.

Love him or hate him, I respect the businessman instincts and creativity Vince brought to the industry to make it what it is today. In regards to the recent allegations, he made his bed and now he has to sleep in it. Highly recommend this documentary, especially if you are or have been a wrestling fan.

I started following the WWF in the mid-70's with Bruno Sammartino, all the way through the Hulk Hogan era, and then only sporadically after that with Stone Cold and The Rock. So I have to say I was probably looking forward to this more than just about anything that has been released on streaming in the last few years.

Professional wrestling used to be so secretive, but now that McMahon has admitted the whole thing is more entertainment than a sport, many of the secrets have been revealed. I've seen some things over the last few years that have revealed some of it, and this documentary confirmed and revealed more for me.

As for Vince McMahon, he is a very polarizing, complex man. Think along the lines of Bobby Knight, Donald Trump, Woody Hayes, or George Steinbrenner. So I'm not sure what to think about him as a person, but as a businessman, he is a genius to do what he did with the transformation of professional wrestling.

Most documentaries on streamers are endless, and should be cut down. Conversely, this is only six episodes long. I think this could have easily been 10 episodes, and still would have been interesting.

Big wrestling fan here, already knew most of the stories that were told, though I did learn some things I didn't know, like for example things about Vince's childhood. Thought the production was really good & watched it all in one day, but the single most important thing people need to know about this is that it was mostly recorded in 2021 which means that you have to wait until the final episode for all the recent allegations. This is why I understand why wrestling fans especially, will have maybe expected more cause they already heard many of the stories, but I still think its a good watch, not an epic watch but a good one, where you will also learn more about other wrestlers from the way they speak about Vince.
