Stephanie McMahon Comments on WWE Unreal Docuseries

A recent episode of the What’s Your Story? with Stephanie McMahon podcast featured Oba Femi as the guest. One of the topics discussed included host Stephanie McMahon’s thoughts about the WWE Unreal docuseries and the criticisms over it giving away too much of the “magic” of the pro wrestling industry.

“I literally grew up in this business and thinking about all of the generations of people that I’ve known and learnt from, and how things have evolved, and how things have changed. And yet some things still stay exactly the same. And that’s the thing is I never, I think Unreal, I like Unreal. I don’t think it gives away the magic, I really don’t, because the magic is the magic. The magic is a feeling, and the magic is the feeling you create and that you share, that you share with the audience, that you share with everyone whose in the ring with you.

It’s like this kinetic energy, and you can’t give that away, because it’s not anything to give away, it’s something you experience. So, I tend to agree, I think times are evolving again and it’s an exciting time, it’s a really exciting time to be a part of the world.”

Femi responded agreeing with McMahon’s views about the docuseries and gave his thoughts about how the stars watch matches from backstage and are still blown away with “magic” of wrestling despite knowing how its done.

“I agree, I’m with you. Even the boys, when they watch the matches  backstage. They’re backstage and they still go like “Wow! That was awesome”. They know how the magic is done and they’re still blown away.”
