On the most recent “Behind The Turnbuckle” podcast, Jonathan Coachman and Tommy Carlucci discussed the Netflix documentary “Mr. McMahon” about Vince McMahon.
Coachman stated that he was approached to participate in the documentary but declined because he believed it would be a “hit piece.”
Coachman stated, “People need to understand, I got called for this doc, and at the time, I was not prepared to go into a doc that I felt was going to be a hit piece. In hindsight, would I have liked to have been in it? I mean, it doesn’t matter to me one way or the other.”
He continued, “Full transparency, another production company on a major network reached out to me yesterday and they’re doing another documentary on the WWE. I don’t know what the network is. They’re actually calling me today after we get done with this show about me being in that one because a lot of people don’t realize how close I was to Vince for many years. I was his assistant. I was on his plane. I did all the press conferences. This production company, somehow they found out because this lady knew exactly what I had done with Vince when she emailed me yesterday.”
There are currently no further details available about the WWE documentary that Coachman was referencing.
