WrestleMania XL: Behind the Curtain

This should be real interesting. Adding it to the watch list for sure.​

You know you’re in a new era when a board member and the head of creative both confirm that they called an audible on the Wrestlemania Match due to fan backlash. You’d never see this before.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I’m definitely watching.

Defo watching......just think they should've waited atleast a month before they air it let alone advertise it.

Same. Advertising after night 1 before the press and night 2 was an odd choice.

WWE's WrestleMania XL: Behind the Curtain documentary did not debut yesterday on YouTube as announced, but there is a good reason for it, PWInsider.com has learned.

The word making the rounds is that due to the sheer amount of footage that the company shot over the course of the weekend, they are still assembling the film.

We are told it will be released as soon as they have locked in the final cut.​

That's kind of what I assumed, poor production people trying to meet that deadline tho lmao

“There is, believe it or not, there is an awesome doc that WWE… The Rock isn’t holding hostage until he has approval of every frame… Jesus. But there was, I think there was an error in terms of promoting it so soon because it wasn’t ready to come out. So, that was an error that was made. But this was a doc that I think went from 11 minutes to 45 minutes, now it’s over an hour. And it’s pretty awesome, and it will be coming out in some form pretty soon, is my understanding.”

Quit yappin' and the release the damn thing already. It's gonna be held back to incorporate the buildup for Mania 41 at this rate.

 

[Chris]

I feel like I've barely heard this theory of Rock holding it hostage as opposed to them just not having their shit together when they advertised (like he's saying) but now I feel like maybe there's something there

 

[Dale]

I only saw it reported once and I forget who it even was. Basically just said something like it's delayed because it's waiting on Rock to watch it back and give his approval or some shit. In all honesty, I could actually believe it aswell because if they're trying to retell the story on how he came in and tried to take Cody's spot then i'm sure he'll want to made to look as good as possible

 

[Chris]

Going from 15 to an hour long probably is the real reason tho all jokes aside. Just poor advertising and communication at first, or possibly they changed their mind bc it'll be better but literally just say "we're adding content" instead of leaving it in limbo I hate when these companies just try and forget they said shit lmao

 

[Storm Trooper]

Obviously the going from 15 mintues to an hour plus is the thing. They didn't anticipate the immense hype around it (surprised they didn't catch that as the product was on fire).

We knew it was a shorter thing given that it was being released on Youtube. WWE doesn't release long form docs on their Youtube. They whip that out on The Cock.

To be honest, I think waiting is good as we can use this over the summer to satiate our Rock cravings until he can come back.
