Many of you have been asking and we’re finally ready to spill the proverbial beans on this month’s batch of classic content. On Monday, February 18th we can exclusively confirm that none other than WWE Confidential is set to make its official debut in the Vault section. Admittedly, Confidential may seem like an odd choice but once you remember that Gene Okerlund was the host and “face” of the show, officially debuting it shortly after the legend’s death is actually fairly smart. Why am I repeatedly referring to an “official” debut for the series? That’s because a couple of segments have appeared in collections and other snippets have aired on the live stream in order to fill time between proper programming. This is, however, the first time that full episodes will be made available.

For those who’ve never heard of WWE Confidential, the 60-minute show is probably best described as somewhat of a documentary/magazine style affair which ran from May 2002 to April 2004. Not featuring any in-ring content or even recaps, Confidential was legitimately groundbreaking in some ways as it garnered a reputation for both “pulling back the curtain” and taking a relatively unflinching look at the industry. Highlights of these deep dives included allowing Shawn Michaels to openly talk about his part in the Montreal Screwjob for the first time, analyzing Stone Cold Steve Austin’s controversial departure from the company and even looking at the unfortunate death of Miss Elizabeth from a drug overdose.

Obviously, not everything that the show covered was dark and gritty. A fondly remembered regular segment saw WWE cameras chronicling life on the road for various superstars. Keeping in sync with Confidential’s “real” tone, said superstars would often use their real names when interviewed, as opposed to staying in-character.

So, now that everyone is up to speed with what Confidential was, you’re all likely wondering how much we’re getting? For now, we can confirm that the episodes will run from the premiere in May 2002 to at least early 2003. The situation is still developing though so we’ll provide more concrete details in the coming days, including a full listing.

As a final reminder, a significant batch of WWE Confidential episodes will hit the WWE Network’s Vault section on Monday, February 18th.
