WWE is set to sign another license agreement that will see them produce championship title belts.
According to the most recent edition of WrestleVotes Radio on SportsKeeda’s Backstage Pass Patreon, WWE is in talks with Call of Duty to release commemorative title belts.
WWE already agreed to feature some of its talents in WarZone, including Cody Rhodes and Rhea Ripley. The company already produces title belts for the NFL, NHL, MLB, and other sports.
Joey Votes: “We can say that WWE is in a line of talks with Microsoft for a video game line, specifically for the Call of Duty game. We can see Call of Duty commemorative championship titles on the horizon, potentially around Christmas time. TC, what are your thoughts on WWE, expanding past the sports leagues as we get into commemorative championships for video games?”
WrestleVotes: “I’m not a gamer myself, but I do understand how large of a business it is, and I think it’s just good business for WWE to have these partnerships to expand as much as you can into different markets for people who spend a lot of time playing video games, and I know it’s very competitive nowadays. Call of Duty, I have some cousins that play that all time online, and sit there with your shiny golden belt over your shoulder as you snipe people from 50 yards away. So I think it’s good business.”
