Corey Graves & Carmella reality show coming to WWE’s YouTube channel
A reality show starring WWE couple Corey Graves and Carmella is coming to YouTube later this month.
“Corey & Carmella” will debut on WWE’s YouTube channel on Monday, February 28. Graves and Carmella made the announcement on the latest episode of their Bare With Us podcast.
Graves said on Bare With Us that the project is in conjunction with WWE and Glass Entertainment Group. The couple was first contacted by Glass Entertainment Group and they then took the idea to WWE. Graves and Carmella shot a pilot episode, which has been chopped up into 10 four-minute episodes. Graves and Carmella said they believe they entire series will be dropped onto WWE’s YouTube channel at once, but that’s subject to change.
Graves and Carmella noted that they’ve been working on the project for two years.
“WWE has been unbelievable about helping us maintain our authenticity as much as we can,” Graves said. “It’s called ‘Corey & Carmella,’ but for those of you that listen to this, you’re going to recognize a lot more Matt and Leah than what you see on Raw or SmackDown or anything WWE.”
Carmella said the couple’s podcast is thread throughout the series.
Graves said the project is still in its infancy and there’s a lot of room for growth — it’s launching on WWE’s YouTube channel, and who knows what happens from there.
Graves (Matthew Polinsky) and Carmella (Leah Van Dale) announced their engagement in October of last year. Graves works as a color commentator for Raw, while Carmella is a member of the Raw roster. Carmella & Zelina Vega are the current WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions.
