Jeff Jarrett comments on Vince McMahon's recent X post ahead of the release of the Netflix docuseries covering his career.
On September 23, Vince McMahon released a statement saying that the early cut he saw of the upcoming "Mr. McMahon" documentary series coming to Netflix was "misleading" in his eyes.
Jeff Jarrett reacted to the post in real time on the latest episode of his My World podcast. Jarrett said that while McMahon believed there were two sides to every story, he is more fond of the old saying that there are three, and somewhere in the middle is the truth.
"Okay, that last line, 'I hope the viewer will keep an open mind and remember that there are two sides to every story.' Well, Connie, I'm going to kind of contradict that statement. I think there's always three sides. What is fascinating about all of this is the timing of it. Now, it's being released on a Wednesday. Does Netflix usually release new episodes on Wednesdays? I'm not the biggest Netflix watcher. It's interesting that they're releasing it on a Wednesday. The timing of it is very, very interesting," he said.
When Conrad Thompson questioned whether Vince McMahon would try to create a high-value production response of his own to illustrate his narrative on his life's story, Jarrett stated that Vince has never been one for letting anything go without a fight.
"The history that I know personally, you know personally, the world really knows: He never takes anything lying down at all. Yes, he controlled the narrative when he ran the organization [WWE], but now he obviously doesn't," said Jarrett. "He understands as well better than anybody. Netflix's number one goal, and I don't want to say [there's] only one goal, but the number one goal is to get as many streams as possible. What's WWE's goal at this current time? Where do they sit on it? Well, we know Vince obviously wants to — I don't want to say protect his name, but to tell his side of the story."
Jeff did question, however, whether the truth would be lost in the shuffle between McMahon's version of the truth and Netflix's narrative. He also stated that he believed this wouldn't be the last time Vince McMahon tried to "punch back" against a narrative he disagreed with.
"Well, it's like he said: there's two sides to every story; I'm going to say there's three sides. There's Vince's version, Netflix's version, and then somewhere out there, there's going to be the truth, maybe even lost in it all. But like you said, I think it goes without saying, him posting today is a definite sign that he's just not going to let this -- he's getting out in front of it. He's punching back, and this is certainly not the first, and it won't be the last."
Netflix's 'Mr. McMahon' series will release on Wednesday, September 25. Check out the trailer for the series here.
