10 Best WWE Shows That Don't Exist Anymore

5. Confidential

Much like Tuesday Night Titans, WWE Confidential only had a 2-year stay on the promotion's programming stable. In similar fashion to the previously-explained 'Byte This' concept, Confidential existed solely to exploit fan interest in the private lives of their favourite performers. Gene Okerlund was the main host, promising to show WWE Superstars like they'd never been seen before. The show began in May, 2002, and ended in April, 2004. Filmed with a documentary feel, Confidential was not a stereotypical pro wrestling show. There were no actual matches on each broadcast, but instead WWE cameras followed various wrestlers on the road. Notable episodes include a special edition dealing with the common phrase, 'wrestling is fake'. This was directly dealt with by the promotion, interviewing under-contract stars and airing their thoughts. That sort of thing was the hook behind Confidential, the idea that fans wanted a 'backstage pass' to see beyond shows like Raw and Smackdown. Perhaps the most famous example of this was the episode that discussed why Steve Austin decided to leave WWE in the Summer of 2002. Austin was extremely candid, as were others like Jim Ross, about the circumstances leading to his sabbatical.
