As someone who has never seen the show, and someone who is too lazy to look it up...was the show real?

Like real real? Not "WWE WrestleMania" real?

I know that reality shows aren't fully real but they are real adjacent.

I'm not sure and the opinion I've found on the Internet is mixed. Some blame the guests for making up stories, others blame the producers for creating drama. Jerry himself said it was 98% real.
