Netflix Unveils Trailer For Mr. McMahon, Its Upcoming WWE Series

Netflix has released the trailer for its documentary series Mr. McMahon, which examines Vince McMahon's rise and fall as WWE's leader. The six-episode series will be available later this month, detailing McMahon’s ascent and his dramatic downfall following sexual misconduct allegations.

Directed by Chris Smith (Tiger King) and produced by Bill Simmons (30 for 30), the series draws from over 200 hours of interviews with McMahon, his family, business associates, and key figures in wrestling. The trailer features Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Hulk Hogan, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, and Bret "The Hitman" Hart. It promises an in-depth look at McMahon's impact on WWE and his controversial legacy. Check out the trailer below.

McMahon's statements are limited to events prior to his January 2024 resignation, as Netflix has disclosed that his interviews for Mr. McMahon were conducted before this date. McMahon initially retired in July 2022 amid allegations of hush-money payments to female employees. He briefly returned to WWE before resigning permanently due to new allegations, including sexual assault and trafficking claims by former WWE employee Janel Grant.

"The goal behind Mr. McMahon was to pull back the curtain and reveal the true Vince McMahon, obscured beneath the persona he presented to the world," Smith told IndieWire. "The final product is a revealing documentary that we believe offers a rich and nuanced portrait of the man and the complex legacy he left behind."

Mr. McMahon premieres on Netflix on September 25. Each of the six episodes will run for 60 minutes.
