8. Backstage Insight Into WWE
Smart wrestling fans love to hear about and see the backstage workings of the WWE. To this day, the backstage is considered a secret and curious area of the wrestling world. Fans are always yearning to see more. Many smart fans will think themselves above a show like Total Divas, but the fact is that it does get behind the curtain and give some of the best backstage insights of 2013. Sure, the whole thing is scripted entertainment. But that is the real WWE backstage area you do see on the show. Total Divas gives us a pretty good idea of the hectic setup of a Raw show, you see all the ring setup and seamstresses who all usually go uncredited. You see wrestlers buzzing around and planning spots. It gives a pretty good feel for what the backstage is really like, and for wrestling fans you will probably find that really interesting. The best of this backstage atmosphere was featured in the very first episode of Total Divas, in which the show went backstage at Wrestlemania 29. You got a real sense of the mayhem in live pay per view booking, and saw all the size of a huge production like Wrestlemania.
