Netflix has just released the first official trailer for its upcoming six-part documentary series on Vince McMahon, set to premiere on September 25.
The trailer kicks off with a bold statement from Vince: “No one really knows me.” From there, it gives viewers a glimpse of his rise to power, showing legendary figures like Hulk Hogan, The Rock, Steve Austin, and John Cena.
We see Vince take over his father’s wrestling business, turn it mainstream, and revolutionize the industry while making a fortune in the process.

But things quickly take a darker turn. The focus shifts to the controversies and scandals that have followed McMahon’s career, touching on steroid use, the deaths of wrestlers, hush money payments, and a lawsuit accusing him of “countless depraved and humiliating acts.”
The trailer wraps up by blurring the lines between wrestling’s reality and fiction. Vince cryptically adds, “The individual loses all sense of who they really are.”
With all that said, what do you think of Netflix’s first look at Mr. McMahon?
This series is bound to stir up plenty of conversations.
