WWE Announces Long-Term Deal with Twitch, Including Weekly Sidecast of Monday Night >
In a surprising move, WWE has announced a long-term deal with Twitch, which will see the return of the official WWE Twitch channel and various Superstars’ channels. The deal also includes a weekly sidecast of Monday Night Raw, the first edition of which aired during this week’s show.
This deal comes after a controversial policy issued by WWE in 2020, which caused a backlash among wrestlers who felt that the company was controlling what they could and could not do outside of the ring, including their use of Twitch. However, WWE seems to have now embraced the platform in a big way.
While there is no word on whether WWE stars will appear on the sidecast, it is sure to be a hit among fans who are looking for more ways to engage with the product. The return of Superstars’ channels also provides an opportunity for wrestlers to connect with fans and build their personal brands.
As always, there have been some memorable moments on Monday Night Raw over the years, and fans can expect more of the same on the sidecast. With WWE’s commitment to Twitch, it seems that the company is looking to expand its reach and connect with fans in new ways.
It remains to be seen how this deal will affect WWE’s relationships with other streaming platforms, but for now, fans can look forward to more WWE content on Twitch. Stay tuned to prowrestlingwars.com for all the latest news and updates from the world of professional wrestling.
