WWE: Unreal, the newest behind-the-scenes docuseries from WWE and Netflix, made its official debut on July 29, 2025, with a five-episode drop that immediately drew strong interest from fans.

According to Netflix’s official rankings, the series earned 2.3 million global views and racked up 10.7 million hours viewed in its first week. That performance was good enough to rank #9 globally among all English-language TV shows on the platform.

WWE: Unreal takes fans on an exclusive journey from the Raw on Netflix premiere on January 6 through WrestleMania 41, offering never-before-seen access to WWE’s inner workings. The series heavily focuses on Charlotte Flair’s return, CM Punk’s backstage presence, John Cena’s heel turn, and the creative process leading up to WWE’s biggest event of the year.

With interviews featuring Triple H, Michael Hayes, Rhea Ripley, CM Punk, and others, the series dives deep into the company’s modern storytelling strategy, giving fans a rare look at the dynamics inside WWE’s writer’s room, along with backstage reactions, rehearsals, and real-time decision-making.
