WWE having talks with Disney about special events for 2027

While speaking at the Goldman Sachs Conference, TKO COO Mark Shapiro commented on WWE’s relationship with The Walt Disney Company, the parent company of WWE’s media partner ESPN. Shapiro stated the following…

“Remember, WWE is a different audience than the UFC, and when it comes to going after families, that’s our audience, and I think advertisers are starting to see that. Frankly, I’m excited for 2027 because we’re working with The Walt Disney Company on some special events around Disney and WWE and bringing those two audiences together since, of course, what do they have in common? Family.” (quote courtesy of Jeremy Lambert)
