If you’re a wrestling fan, you’ll probably find some nuggets of gold in the stories told about Vince McMahon’s rollercoaster ride through WWE. But let’s be honest, it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. The docuseries dives into some heavy stuff, and while it’s fascinating, it can feel a bit overwhelming at times.
