The first season of Unreal debuted this summer and included five episodes that were all approximately 50 minutes long. WrestleMania 41, John Cena’s heel turn, the WWE women’s division, Jey Uso’s Royal Rumble win, and Raw’s Netflix premiere were some of the topics covered.
Here is the description for the series:
From the writers’ room to Gorilla position, this series goes beyond the glitz and pyro to uncover the full-blown machine behind epic WWE productions.
WWE rehiring R-Truth after fan outcry over his departure will be explored in the new season, along with Rollins’ worked-shoot injury angle that culminated in him cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase at SummerSlam.
The partnership between WWE and Netflix began with Raw debuting on the streaming giant in January 2025. Next month will mark the one-year anniversary of that premiere. In addition to being the broadcast home of Raw in the United States, Netflix carries a wide array of WWE programming internationally.
Rollins — who is now out of action with a legitimate injury — will likely promote the new season of WWE Unreal when he appears on Netflix’s Christmas Day NFL coverage later this month.
