Netflix releases official trailer for ‘Mr. McMahon’ docuseries

Ahead of its September 25 premiere, Netflix has released the official trailer for its “Mr. McMahon” docuseries.

Interviews with Vince McMahon himself, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin, John Cena, Bruce Prichard, Eric Bischoff, Jimmy Hart, Bret Hart, Paul “Triple H” Levesque, and The Ringer’s David Shoemaker are included in the trailer.

“People have wondered who I really am. You know, the portrayal of me is I’m a bad guy, but no one really knows me,” McMahon says as the trailer opens.

WWE’s rise, the 1994 steroid trial, Chris Benoit’s double murder-suicide, and Janel Grant’s sexual abuse allegations against McMahon are among the topics that will be covered. Grant was not interviewed for the series, though producers did reach out to her.

The docuseries is produced by sports media personality Bill Simmons and “Tiger King” executive producer Chris Smith. It features six one-hour episodes that will all be available to watch on September 25 when the series debuts.

Netflix has been developing this docuseries since 2020, with the project evolving along the way given the allegations made against McMahon. He resigned from WWE this January after Grant’s lawsuit was filed. The interviews with McMahon were conducted prior to his resignation.

The premiere of the documentary comes just a few months before WWE Raw moves to Netflix in January 2025. WWE does not have a production credit on the “Mr. McMahon” series.
