I was under the impression that the leaks were like career shattering, i guess they are not that bad if the dude can make a netflix special...
As far as I can tell, he didn't make this:

Mr. McMahon chronicles the rise and fall of Vince McMahon, controversial businessman and co-founder of WWE. From his transformation of the WWE from a small, regional business into a global entertainment powerhouse to the explosive sexual misconduct allegations that led to his eventual resignation, this six-episode series offers a deep dive into McMahon’s life and his enduring franchise. Culled from over 200 hours of interviews with McMahon himself (prior to his resignation), his family members, business associates and some of the most iconic names in wrestling history, as well as the journalists who uncovered McMahon’s allegations — filmmaker Chris Smith (Tiger King) and executive producer Bill Simmons (30 for 30) present an unflinching, no-holds-barred look at one of the most enigmatic figures in sports entertainment.

Also, if there's a slight chance that he did, if there is one thing Vince McMahon is really good at it's burying his own image for financial gain.

I wonder if someone will talk about Vince wanting a character in a movie WWE was producing to have a dick so big it dragged along the ground.

During a conversation on Konnan’s “Keepin’ It 100” podcast, Conrad Thompson said he’s heard that the documentary will be a “burial” of McMahon and some people in WWE are not happy about it. Thompson said, “It’s a hit piece they don’t like.” Konnan said, “Yeah, because Bill Simmons is doing it. He does what he wants.”

Thompson continued, “[Simmons] is talking to [David] Shoemaker and [Dave] Meltzer. It’s an absolute double shovel burial.”

Figures that it would be. WWE/Endeavour will want to distance themselves from Vince and Netflix will be happy to facilitate that because they’ve got that new deal with them.

Bill simmons has had some great documentaries. Really glad he's producing this. He started grantland and 30 for 30 until disney/espn got scared cause that company is full of bitches.

McMahon is a piece of shit. He's at the top of the list when it comes to why wrestlers keep dying and have medical complications.

It was fun during the Stone cold era but as more info came out about CTE it was clear McMahon just wanted to destroy any competition from other leagues and was obsessed with money.

He doesn't give a shit that the Saudi government is a terrorist organization; he just loves greed.

I wonder what all the people who got interviewed for this think now. They might not be happy of them using footage of them praising Vince.

Makes me laugh. Throughout the years, he's allegedly done way worse than a lady mutually agreeing to be shat on by him for money but that's what people focus on. I will most likely be watching this though considering enjoying wrestling in my lifetime was 99% thanks to this man.

Remember Vince introduced Asian women into the WWE because someone told him Asian porn is popular
Im sure he had to be convinced more because he himself wasnt sexually attracted to asian women and other men were which being Vince he didn't care what anyone else liked

I'll be watching this..

The part where he talks about the lines becoming blurred between story and reality definitely sound right.

I think Vince lost his mind a long, long time ago.

Yeh if I remember right Jim Ross was trying to convince Vince that they should sign Gail Kim because he thought she was talented. Vince didn't seem particularly interested and because the women's division was really sexualised at the time JR changed tactic and said "you know Vince, a lot of guys are into Asian girls. There are even Asian porn sites." Vince was shocked to find out that was the case.
