The former CEO of WWE, Vince McMahon, has been in the news for some time owing to controversial reasons. A veteran recently talked about their experiences with McMahon, detailing a certain feeling he had when dealing with the latter.

McMahon is currently entangled in a messy lawsuit with several allegations leveled against him, including s*x trafficking. The recent Netflix docuseries titled, Mr. McMahon revolves around the rise and fall of the 79-year-old. The documentary also brought him back into the active discussions of the wrestling community, as several veterans including Dutch Mantell talked about how he was behind the scenes.

In a recent episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling's SmackTalk show, former WWE General Manager, Mantell spoke about how he had a "strange sensation" whenever he interacted with McMahon one-on-one.

"I have said this before. Vince, when I dealt with him one on one, it was a strange sensation being next to him because I felt a funny vibe, vibe, coming off of him. And it was an uneasy vibe, and I think what the... I didn't know what I was feeling. Now later on when I heard all these things that he was doing or he had done or he was going to do, or he will do, you know that was probably what I was feeling," he said. [4:11 onwards]

The Netflix Documentary about the former WWE CEO seemingly glossed over a major detail

While the Netflix show chronicling Vince McMahon's life was well structured, a veteran has pointed out one aspect that was conspicuously missing from the docuseries.

Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's UnSKripted show, veteran journalist, Bill Apter stated that the former WWE CEO had apparently been kicked out of military school at one point owing to his indisciplined behavior.

"They mentioned the abuse and everything that he [Vince McMahon] suffered as a child, they didn't mention anything about him being sent to military school. Nothing about it. And he was allegedly such a brat at the military school that he was put on court martial and tossed out. This is the story that goes. But, his family did send him to military school." [8:47 - 9:20]
