The president of the conglomerate TKO Group Holdings, Mark Shapirospoke thus recently of the WWE’s Netflix deal:
«Don’t underestimate Netflix’s move. In the sense that the Netflix deal for WWE is all about discovery. New audiences, new viewers, casual viewers. You’re going to go to that homepage and WWE is going to be there, being promoted and marketed. It’s a whole new audience for us. Those who are already WWE fans, they’re going to follow along. It’s going to be a must-watch. Netflix will serve as a true discovery platform for us. Specifically, that will help us when it comes to site fees and sponsorship.”
► Dominik Mysterio the WWE and Netflix
That was one way to address the issue of expectations with the giant’s relationship. pro wrestling with the colossal of streaming. Now we know another one, that of “Dirty” Dominik Mysteriowho is one of the fundamental pieces of the current WWE programming due to her history with Liv Morgan, Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley:
«I think people are going to expect us to come in and, on the first episode of Raw on Netflix, they’re going to expect blood and tables everywhere.. OldEdge and Lita when they did the live sex show. I’m sure people are going to expect that. I feel like for things like that to be special and meaningful, it can’t happen all the time. It has to be like an RKO out of nowhere. You don’t expect it and then, Boom! Boob! I don’t know if it’s necessarily going to get any edgier. I think it’s going to take time for it to get any edgier. I think we’re going to gradually stay the same and then slowly start testing our limits.«says the fighter in ImPAULsive.
