Triple H And WWE Stars Pull The Curtains Back In Netflix's WWE: Unreal
Paul 'Triple H' Levesque and WWE stars reveal the creative process in Netflix's docuseries WWE: Unreal. It premieres July 29, directed by Chris Weaver.
Paul 'Triple H" Levesque and some of WWE's biggest stars are ready to lift the veil on professional wrestling in the upcoming Netflix docuseries WWE: Unreal.
Netflix has released the first trailer for the five-part series, which promises fans an unprecedented look inside the creative engine of WWE. For the first time, viewers will be taken behind the scenes into WWE's writers' room, offering a rare glimpse into how storylines are developed and executed.
WWE: Unreal features appearances from John Cena, Cody Rhodes, and a host of WWE icons including Rhea Ripley, CM Punk, Bianca Belair, Charlotte Flair, Chelsea Green, Jey Uso, Xavier Woods, and Triple H himself. The series highlights the intense work, intricate storytelling, and pivotal decisions that shape the WWE Universe.
Because at WWE, as the series tagline says, you just can't fake hard work.
The docuseries is narrated by Triple H — the 14-time WWE World Champion who has served as WWE's Chief Content Officer since 2022. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Levesque spoke about the motivation behind opening up the creative process to the public.
'Our business evolves and so do the expectations of our audience," Levesque said. 'When you look at the track records of Omaha Productions and NFL Films, it felt like we had the right partners in place to pull back the curtain and showcase WWE in a brand-new way."
CM Punk Voices Mixed Emotions
While the project has been praised for its bold transparency, not everyone is fully comfortable with the approach. WWE superstar CM Punk has admitted to having mixed feelings about the concept.
'I have that old-school mentality of protecting the business," Punk shared. 'So the idea of letting cameras this far behind the scenes is really strange to me — even if I understand why fans want to see it."
WWE: Unreal is set to premiere globally on Netflix on July 29. The series is directed by Chris Weaver and produced by Omaha Productions, NFL Films, Skydance Sports, and WWE.
