WWE News And Rumors: Seth Green Talks About His Summer Wrestling Camp and Working with Vince McMahon

Camp WWE is an interesting media project the sports entertainment giant has never attempted before. But that's exactly what Seth Green and his Stoopid Buddy Stoodios wanted when they accepted the challenge of offering something else to WWE fan base apart from the regular staple of hardcore in-ring matches and storylines.

Following the Payback event PPV on May 1, WWE will launch an adult-oriented animated TV series on TV-MA from Green's talent mill responsible for other notable works like the Robot Chicken.

The cartoon series for mature audiences shows a summer wrestling camp managed by Vince McMahon (who voiced over himself) with real-life wrestlers like Dean Ambrose, the Bellas, John Cena, Roman Reigns, Big Show, and more 8-year-old kids. Legacy wresting figures such as Ric Flair and Sgt. Flair as camp directors who oversee the summertime haven.

"I think the idea for this was giving them the opportunity to do something they can't typically do with the brand, especially, in any of the live-action programming," the actor and long-time WWE fan said as per Channel Guide Mag.

Green noted further saying, "So they wanted something that was going to be a driver not only for the audience that already loves this content but also for people who need a new access point to it."

While the promotion's regular programming such as the Monday Night Raw contains a more restricted language filled with mostly family-friendly content, Camp WWE is tailored to produce just the opposite- a mature-themed series similar to hit cartoon shows like Archer or South Park. In this regard, f-word, and middle-finger endearments are allowed in this let-loose environment.

"I was told that they wanted a cartoon that would appeal to those who maybe wouldn't watch some of the other programming the Network. Something for people who watched Archer and South Park and other animated shows like that. So that was what we set out to do," said Green in an interview with IGN.

"To make a show using these characters in a way that would appeal to people looking for something different. And who may not know that you could take these characters to these types of places. And you know what? It was an amazing experience. Everyone was so game for it. It was awesome."

The artistically creative and hilariously ridiculous animated prequel to the origins of some of WWE's superstars reflects the promotion's ability to evolve along with the changing pop culture setting. Meanwhile, Green also revealed his fondness for Vince McMahon as he worked closely with him during the production stage.

"He takes directions very, very well," Green says. "He's got a keen sense of understanding the comedy and the emotional disposition," the famed animator said as quoted by USA Today.

"I don't think girls between 14 and 29 are prepared for how much they're going to love Vince McMahon after they watch this cartoon."
