Mr. McMahon is a story of admission without explanation. Although this docuseries provides in-depth coverage of WWE's questionable history, featuring interviews from wrestling's greatest legends, the most interesting aspect was always going to be Vince McMahon in his own words. On that front, it's underwhelming. Vince is never pushed, and when interesting answers arise, the follow-up is almost non-existent. Unlike his father, however, Shane McMahon chooses not to hold back, becoming the most compelling part of the whole story, building on the underlying throughline of strained father/son relationships in the McMahon bloodline. I’m ready to see a project on Shane telling that story instead.

Mr. McMahon is an enlightening docuseries and a fun trip down memory lane for wrestling fans of the 80s and 90s. It gives insight into Vince McMahon’s drive, character, and approach to business while exploring the rise of WWE. However, since nearly the entire series was filmed before recent allegations, it doesn’t explore that ongoing scandal too much. Instead, it allows McMahon to tell his own story of who he thinks he is, some of which will raise eyebrows, allowing viewers to form their own opinions as to whether he might be capable of the crimes for which he is being investigated. I dug it.
