Eric Young Discusses ‘Mr. McMahon’ Docuseries – The “Mr. McMahon” docuseries premiered on Netflix on September 25th. The six-part docuseries features interviews with Vince McMahon and many others, and most of them were recorded before McMahon initially retired in 2022.
Speaking on HUGE POP! with Donnie DaSilva and Jimmy Korderas, the Vince McMahon docuseries came up in the conversation, and Young responded to the claim that it was disappointing.
“I don’t know what people were expecting. I mean, Netflix is married to the WWE, and no one understands better that he doesn’t work there anymore, but his legacy will be part of that company as long as it exists, and at one time, I would say, in my personal opinion, a genius and the greatest promoter living. He lost his way along the way obviously, and the documentary is certainly not kind. I haven’t seen it, but I know people that have. I don’t know if I’ll watch it or not, it’s certainly not on my list. There’s lots of other good TV that I’m busy watching. The stuff on there is all stuff that’s been talked about before, so it’s no news to me. But it’s definitely got the world and anybody that’s linked or affiliated with wrestling in any way talking and wondering what’s gonna happen. So never a dull moment in pro wrestling, that’s for sure,” Young said.
WWE Raw is moving to Netflix in January 2025; WWE announced the $5 billion deal in January 2024.
