WWE Confidential


WWE Confidential is a professional wrestling television program produced by World Wrestling Entertainment. It aired on Spike TV late Saturday nights, following Velocity, from May 25, 2002 to April 24, 2004. It was hosted by Gene Okerlund.
As of May 18, 2020, the first 61 episodes of WWE Confidential were made available to stream on the WWE Network.

Format

Confidential was a unique program for the company, in that it was not a standard "live event" or "recap" show. Rather, it offered an exclusive, "behind the scenes" look into WWE and its talent, both in-ring and otherwise. The show also periodically broke kayfabe and used professional wrestling slang. Confidential was discontinued in 2004 and was replaced with The WWE Experience, a more traditional weekly summary show.
A similar show to Confidential eventually returned under the name WWE Outside the Ring, but in a shortened version. The new online show debuted February 2012 on WWE's YouTube channel and has since been aired on Thursdays.

Notable and typical features

A DVD compilation of segments from this show, The Best of WWE Confidential, Vol. 1, was released in early 2003.
