A documentary special titled WWE: Made in America is set to premiere later this month.

As first reported by Variety on Thursday, the documentary will air on Friday, May 29, immediately following WWE SmackDown on the USA Network, with encore presentations planned throughout June and on the July 4 holiday.

The official logline for WWE: Made in America states the film will explore, “the evolution of a regional business into a global powerhouse, examining how the company mirrored the American spirit across five decades — from the patriotic heroes of the 1980’s all the way through to the newest generation of superstars continuing to further WWE’s American legacy.”

WWE commentator Joe Tessitore will host the special, and Lilian Garcia will give a special performance of “America the Beautiful.”

Also advertised for the documentary are appearances by Triple H, Cody Rhodes, Jimmy Hart, The Undertaker, Booker T, Sgt. Slaughter, Kane, Matt Cardona, Carmelo Hayes, Nattie Neidhart, Je’Von Evans, and reporter Erielle Reshef.

The documentary was directed by Matt Braine, with Triple H, Lee Fitting, and Ben Houser serving as executive producers.
