WWE: Unreal gives fans a rare glimpse into the inner workings of the promotion, spotlighting backstage moments, writers' room meetings, and unseen interactions between the superstars. The show is currently streaming on Netflix and features most of the stars from the global juggernaut.

While discussing the project on the Lightweights Podcast alongside Rhea Ripley, Punk mentioned that neither of them had watched the show before its release. He felt the WWE stars would share the same experiences as fans, watching the footage from key moments backstage, because the company didn't allow them to watch it before its release.

"I'll tell you a little bit of a secret. We haven't been allowed to see the show yet. We haven't seen it. So that's why when both of us tell you we're nervous, we're a little bit nervous. People have talked to us about a camera catching a moment between myself and Rhea. We were in the car on the way over here, and I was like, 'Do you remember? I don't even remember there being a camera there.' So it's gonna be, I'm getting on the roller coaster. We're creeping up, and I'm about to take the dip just along with the rest of the fans," CM Punk said. [From 2:27 onwards]
