The WWE superstars have always been in pursuit of some refreshments away from the wrestling ring. It encompasses diluting their social life on various platforms, including Twitch and Cameo. Back in 2020, under the company’s new policy, WWE restricted superstars from participating in any third-party platforms. Ever since then, there have been widespread frustrations among the various WWE talents.
However, according to reports, that decision came to an end this year with WWE lifting all restrictions and allowing superstars to participate in Twitch. The company came up with a new policy under which superstars have the freedom to use streaming platforms. As a result, the WWE talents seem to be quite happy. Moreover, recent reports reveal the portion of revenue WWE would accrue from the superstars using Twitch.
According to Sean Ross Sapp of Flightful, although WWE is taking some share from the superstars, it won’t be massive. WWE allowed the superstar to be back on Twitch; therefore, he reported that the company only wants a small portion as a consolation. Furthermore, Sean Ross said it was a percentage in “single figures.” Various sources stated that the revenue would be split three ways, with the talents and the platform receiving the most of it.
Besides, in an exclusive report by the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Bryan Alverez revealed that WWE will accrue the revenue cut from the Twitch side. Therefore, the company will make sure the superstars get the most out of the streaming platforms. According to the reports of Alverez, WWE’s new deal with Twitch is termed a “very talent friendly deal.”
Therefore, it looks like the new deal came as a blessing for those superstars who love to spend time on streaming platforms. Under Triple H’s regime, the company is witnessing some major changes and transitions. However, WWE’s new deal with Twitch appears to be in favor of the superstars.
