Netflix recently announced that a documentary series about former WWE owner Vince McMahon will be coming to the streaming service on September 25th 2024 with six one-hour episodes. On Monday, McMahon’s official Twitter/X issued a statement ahead of the docuseries’ premiere.

Janel Grant’s attorney Ann Callis (via PR representative Kendra Barkoff Lamy) responded to McMahon’s statement…

“Vince McMahon physically and emotionally abused, sexually assaulted and human trafficked Janel Grant for more than two years. Calling his horrific and criminal behavior ‘an affair’ is delusional and nothing more than a sad attempt to save his shredded reputation. Although Ms. Grant has not seen the ‘Mr. McMahon’ docuseries, we hope it shines a bright light on his abhorrent and criminal actions by accurately portraying the realities of his abusive and exploitative behavior.

Ms. Grant will no longer be silenced by McMahon. Her story, though deeply troubling and exceptionally painful, is one that can help other abuse survivors find their voices. We seek to hold McMahon, John Laurinaitis and WWE accountable and to give Ms. Grant her dav in court.”
