'''Are You Serious?''' was a WebOriginal show produced by Wrestling/{{WWE}}, airing on the company's [[http://www.youtube.com/wwefannation YouTube page]]. The series features former WWE superstar Road Dogg and current WWE commentator Josh Mathews being forced to watch not-so-great wrestling clips from the annals of wrestling history. They're inexplicably joined by a puppet Wrestling/TripleH that's been dubbed "Puppet H". The series amounts to basically a web video version of the Website/{{WrestleCrap}} site combined with Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000, but it's proven to be the more popular of WWE's Website/YouTube efforts.
