Hey folks, if you ever wondered how the stars align not just in the sky, but in the squared circle of WWE, buckle up! It’s time to pull back that crimson curtain and dive into the nitty-gritty of what makes WrestleMania tick. Imagine the chaos, the sweat, the tears, and trust me… there’s plenty of yelling too. But here’s a curveball for you – could the success of WrestleMania 41 be written in the stars?
This summer, Netflix is dropping a docuseries called “WWE: Unreal”—and let me tell ya, forget those crystal ball predictions; this is the real deal. Netflix, having snagged the wrestling world’s biggest bang for a cool $5 billion, is now teaming up again with WWE to lift the veil on what goes down when those cameras roll out.
We’re talking Paul “Triple H” Levesque, who’s now steering the WWE ship as CCO, bringing to our screens the same intensity he brought to the ring. He’s dished out some teaser goodness, like, “Seven days a week, 365 days a year. This is a calculated, coordinated production…We’re gonna lift the curtain.” And you know what that means? Real, raw, maybe even a bit of that Rhea Ripley’s raw power behind the scenes!
Now, could it be Taurus season’s practicality bringing order to chaos, or perhaps Leo season’s flair for drama adding that extra punch to every plot twist? Either way, WWE: Unreal promises to be a spectacle where Aries’ quickness and Scorpio’s intensity might just explain those in-ring chemistry or those stunning betrayals.
And think about it – “The Rock”, “John Cena”, “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes are all set to step into this WWE saga, post-WrestleMania. Things ain’t rocket science, but understanding the behind-the-scenes wizardry? That’s where the real magic happens.
So, you ready to check out this wild journey? Netflix has bet big, and if their debut with WWE Raw garnered nearly 5 million viewers worldwide, this is going to be the front row seat to a wrestling documentary like no other! Let’s see how Netflix, with their well-known love for multi-part docuseries, handles wrestling’s chaotic yet calculated world. CAN’T WAIT!!

With WrestleMania 41 over, word comes that Netflix will release a 10-part docuseries designed to take fans behind the scenes of what makes events like that tick. Titled WWE: Unreal, the series will hit the streaming service this summer.
The WWE has produced some incredible documentaries about their talent and programming over the years, so many of which offer deep dives you won’t get anywhere else. Considering Netflix has been on the multi-part documentaries train for a while now, this one focused on WWE should be an awesome combination. To give an idea, the teaser features Paul “Triple H” Levesque – who serves as WWE’s CCO (taking over more duties once Vince McMahon left) – saying, “Seven days a week, 365 days a year. This is a calculated, coordinated production…We’re gonna lift the curtain.”
In their release, Netflix teased a little bit of WWE: Unreal along with tonight’s episode of Raw, which, as the first one right out of WrestleMania, is usually one of the most exciting of the year. “While full details remain under wraps, WWE: Unreal is part of Netflix’s rapidly growing partnership with WWE — one that kicked off in a major way in January 2025 with Raw, streaming live on Netflix on Mondays at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT. Since the premiere, dozens of superstars have stepped into the WWE Raw ring, including The Rock, John Cena, and the Undisputed WWE Champion “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes, and the Raw after WrestleMania on Monday, April 21 is set to be the biggest spectacle of the year.”
While a comprehensive look at the history of the WWE would have been a worthwhile endeavor, it seems like this Netflix series will be centering on 2025. That said, seeing how things work behind the scenes, from the writers room to run-throughs to the finished product, will be a must-watch.
Netflix acquired broadcast rights to WWE Raw last year for $5 billion. The streamer’s debut episode landed nearly 5 million views worldwide.
