‘WWE Unreal’ Netflix docuseries debuting this summer

The WWE’s answer to Netflix’s Drive to Survive is now a reality in more ways than one.

Announced during Sunday’s WrestleMania 41, a docuseries called WWE Unreal will debut this summer and will focus on all things backstage including a look inside the writer’s room, according to Michael Cole.

Ever since last year’s announcement of the multi-year deal between WWE and Netflix, the creation of a docuseries akin to Drive to Survive that launched the Formula 1 racing series to new heights was publicly discussed. The series just finished its seventh season.

Netflix also has a golf-focused docuseries called Full Swing entering its fourth season, and The Clubhouse, a new Major League Baseball docuseries focused on the 2024 Boston Red Sox season.

No details about the series were revealed. By comparison, The Clubhouse was eight episodes, Full Swing was either seven or eight per season, and Drive to Survive has ten episodes per season.
