Vince McMahon has dismissed suggestions that the Mr. McMahon character is the same type of character as the Chairman in real life.

In the recent A&E biography of WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin, Vince McMahon discussed his character, Mr. McMahon, who Stone Cold feuded with during the Attitude Era. The WWE Chairman stated that the character he portrayed on-screen is nowhere close to reality.

"Mr. McMahon is no way in the world like me - we'll start with that. But he's arrogant, he's rich, can treat people like crap."

Bruce Prichard, who has been a part of the backstage set-up in WWE for a long time, stated there are a lot of similarities between Vince McMahon and the Mr. McMahon character.

"Vince is crazy, he really is. That stuff is not far from what Vince would do as to what Mr. McMahon did," said Prichard.

In the documentary, former WWE commentator and Hall of Famer Jim Ross labeled Vince McMahon the "greatest villain in the Attitude Era."

Stone Cold Steve Austin on his rivalry with Vince McMahon

Stone Cold Steve Austin also opened up about his rivalry with Vince McMahon, stating that his feud with the WWE Chairman was "tailor-made" for the pair.

"Vince and I were tailor-made for each other to work together. Vince was unique because he was the owner, and now he's feuding with me, it's a real storyline. All of a sudden, it wasn't just about wrestling - it was about this guy (Austin) who's an employee, against his boss. And everybody is an employee who has a boss and a lot of times the employee has not liked what the boss has done or said to him."

The rivalry between Austin and McMahon is regarded by many as one of the greatest in pro wrestling history.
