Bruce Prichard States That He Initially Hated ‘WWE: Unreal’ Idea

Bruce Prichard gives his thoughts about WWE: Unreal.

The second season of ‘WWE: Unreal’ on Netflix premieres on January 20th. The show offers an in-depth look at the creative writing process at WWE, featuring interviews with talent and executives.

One of the executives featured in season one was Bruce Prichard. Prichard sat down with Brandon Tierney and Sal Licata for an interview and shared that he initially hated the idea of Unreal.

“I hated it at first. I really did. Believe or not, pretty private person anyway. But, to discuss business for the world to see how and why we do the things that we do, that was always the mystery. That was always the untold and when we did it, it’s like, ‘Okay, if we do this, we’re gonna go all in’ and we have cameras everywhere, and what happens is you forget you’re on camera when you do that, because, they’re just in your face. There’s people shooting over there, there’s people shooting over there, people shooting up there, down there, everywhere, and you let your guard down. The ‘Unreal’ is very real. It’s obviously edited and it’s an entertainment show and it’s a docuseries, I’ll call it. But, I think it’s been fun and it’s given the audience an insight as to this is more than two guys in their underwear wrestling in a ring.”

WWE’s Monday Night Raw program airs weekly on Netflix, and Friday Night SmackDown airs on the streaming service internationally.
