Disney and WWE Teaming Up: Mark Shapiro Hints at Family-Focused Collaboration
TKO President Mark Shapiro has hinted at an upcoming collaboration between WWE and Disney. Speaking at the Goldman Sachs Communacopia + Technology Conference, Shapiro emphasized that the company's focus is on appealing to families, which is also a key demographic for Disney. He cited 2027 as a significant year for this partnership.
Shapiro didn't elaborate on what form the collaboration would take, but suggested it could involve special events or content that brings together WWE and Disney audiences. The partnership with ESPN is set to continue until 2031, so there's plenty of time to explore other areas of collaboration beyond their current deal.
