Last week, Netflix released a six-part documentary all about disgraced WWE founder Vince McMahon. Tommy Blacha worked very closely with McMahon in 2000 as head writer and had a lot of thoughts about the documentary, so much so that we took a break from our weekly reviews for this special one-off episode. We review the series as a whole and talk about ways we think it could've been improved. We also discussed a few things we actually liked about it. Did you watch the series? What are your thoughts?
