Vince McMahon made a surprising statement that he doesn’t perceive himself as having a legacy.
This revelation was made during the streaming of the “Mr. McMahon” docuseries on Netflix. McMahon emphasized his belief that he doesn’t hold a legacy, however, he is perfectly aware of who he truly is. It’s worth noting that this statement was made before the surfacing of sexual abuse allegations.
In the sixth and final episode of this Netflix Special, McMahon made another unexpected comment, revealing that many individuals have an incorrect idea of his persona. He stated,
““What’s my legacy? You know, I don’t have one. Everyone has a certain feeling about who they think Vince McMahon is. People really don’t know me at all. A lot of people have confused who my character was on television and who I am. When I look in the mirror, I know who I’m looking at. I know the reflection.”
He further added,
“Sometimes the lines of reality or fact and fiction are very blurred in our business. Sometimes what happens is performers start believing in themselves. They start believing in their own character. The individual loses all sense of who they really are personally. They become the character. I’m wondering myself now. Which is the character, and which is me? I guess maybe it’s a blend. I would suggest that one is exaggerated a little bit, but I’m not so sure which one.”
