Summary

Vince McMahon has never been loved all around. Like a chokeslam to the mat, he is forceful, direct and lacking sensitivity. But few really know just how painful it was to work for the man that made the WWE what it is today. The new Netflix documentary 'Mr. McMahon' reveals a side to the wrestling tycoon that verges on criminal, and Piers Morgan is suitably intrigued. Joining Piers for an intellectual bout is ex-WWF star and Youtuber Maven Huffman, ex WWE announcer Jonathan ‘Coach’ Coachman, WWF head writer during Attitude era Vince Russo, Outkick broadcaster and ex WWE backstage interviewer Charly Arnolt. During the discussion, they’re all lulled into a false sense of security, right before Piers brings in one last surprise. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
