R-Truth Explains Why He Isn’t Bothered By WWE: Unreal

R-Truth doesn’t have an issue with how WWE: Unreal pulls back the curtain on WWE, and he explained why in a new interview. The WWE star has been a big part of the show, having been the focus the second season’s second episode.

A number of WWE talent have expressed ambivalence about the series, but R-Truth spoke in an interview with Gello promoting his concert earlier this month and said that it doesn’t bother him. You can see the highlights below:

On Fans Upset About Unreal:

“I like how you got excited when you were like, ‘Now they going inside.’ It’s the same as a Hollywood movie… It’s just you not knowing the rabbit’s in the hat. We’re letting you know the rabbit’s in the hat. Just like when you see how a movie is made, and you see them, ‘Cut, shoot.’ You see all that, and you still go watch [shout], whether it’s Transformers or a Jackie Chan movie, or a Chris Tucker — you know.

“I think it’s just the fact that, ‘Oh! You told me. You shouldn’t have told me. But you’ve already known. You’ve already suspected. You’ve already [said] ‘It’s fake, it’s a work.’ So we’re gonna give you that.

On Why It Doesn’t Bother Him:

“And to me, it’s like — I always go against the grain sometimes, you know what I’m saying? But it doesn’t bother me. The Unreal thing doesn’t bother me. It doesn’t bother me knowing the rabbit’s in the hat.

Now, you have to go out there and still execute. You have to still go out there and grab those people, grab that audience. You still got to go out there and do the damn thing.”

WWE: Unreal returns for its third season on July 21st on Netflix.
