Currently titled “The United States of America vs. Vince McMahon,” the series will be the first scripted portrayal of McMahon and many legendary figures of the WWE. Blumhouse will develop the series under the guidance of Blumhouse TV president Chris McCumber.
McCumber worked with McMahon for years during the former’s time as an executive at NBCUniversal, with whom WWE has longstanding ties. Most recently, WWE sold theon WWE Network to NBCU streamer Peacock in a deal reportedly worth north of $1 billion. 1994, the U.S. government indicted McMahon for allegedly supplying anabolic steroids to WWE talent. McMahon — with his liberty at stake, two school-aged children at home and with WWE on the brink of bankruptcy — refused to take a plea deal. Ultimately, McMahon stood trial and was acquitted unanimously by a jury of his peers and went on to build the WWE into a multi-billion-dollar empire.
