Randy Orton is keeping it real about his feelings toward Netflixs new WWE: Unreal docuseries and it turns out, hes conflicted.
Speaking on the Maggie and Perloff Show, the 14-time world champion admitted that the old school wrestler in him isnt thrilled about showing fans a full behind-the-scenes look at the business.
While Orton says the concept isnt his favorite, he does understand why WWE is embracing it. He admitted that the series appeals to a modern audience curious about what goes on when the cameras stop rolling. I think theres a large amount of fans out there that are very curious and they want to know behind the scenes and how we do what we do and make it look so effortless, Orton said. My job is to go out there in that ring and get you to kind of suspend your belief and make you believe that what youre seeing, that theres real emotion behind it.
Ortons perspective shines a light on the balancing act WWE faces evolving with the times while keeping the mystique thats made the industry special for generations.
