In a recent statement, wrestling mogul Vince McMahon expressed his disapproval of the upcoming Netflix docuseries titled "Mr. McMahon," labeling it as "misleading" and "deceptive." McMahon, who retired from WWE amidst internal investigations into sexual abuse allegations and hush-money payments, has vehemently denied the accusations against him. Despite participating in the documentary, McMahon has openly criticized the producers for what he perceives as a biased portrayal that conflates his public persona with his personal identity.

The six-part series, set to premiere on September 25, delves into the controversies surrounding McMahon's career, including allegations of sexual assault and hush-money payments. McMahon, known for building the WWE empire, stated that the producers missed an opportunity to present an objective narrative of his life, filled with excitement, drama, and business acumen, while also acknowledging the controversies and life lessons he has faced. However, McMahon claimed that the documentary's early cut failed to offer a balanced view and instead relied on editing techniques to present a one-sided and deceptive narrative.

McMahon pointed out that the documentary presented a skewed version of events by using out-of-context footage and dated soundbites to manipulate viewers' perceptions. He particularly criticized the producers' decision to highlight a lawsuit related to an affair as evidence that he embodies the 'Mr. McMahon' persona portrayed in the wrestling world. McMahon urged viewers to approach the docuseries with an open mind and emphasized the importance of considering multiple perspectives when evaluating the story presented.
