More Details on WWE Partnering With Twitch

We’re learning more about WWE allowing wrestlers to stream on Twitch again. Fightful first had the news that WWE is letting their wrestlers stream on Twitch again. It sounds like WWE really fought hard for their wrestlers to get a fair share doe their wrestlers.

Wrestling reporter Andrew Zarian shared more about the deal on Twitter:

“According to them, WWE execs negotiated for talent to get a larger cut than other creators on the platform. This was described to me as a “very talent-friendly deal.”

Did you watch WWE wrestlers on Twitch when they were streaming? I’d tune into watching Zelina Vega streaming at times so I think this could he perfect for a wrestler like her. Or someone like AJ Styles.

Shout out to WWE for making sure wrestlers get a fair deal!
