Quotable
“[The WWE]’s right in that sweet spot of sports entertainment for us and what we call our sports shoulder programming, which is around the drama of sports and telling the story behind the sport. And we’ve done that from everything from Formula One and then NASCAR to ‘Full Swing’ and we’ve had certain events. We just had Netflix Slam, which was kind of we think an vulnerable event for us this last weekend. We had Netflix Cup before that in golf. We’ve got a lot more coming. We’ve got ‘Sprint,’ which is around the 100-meter dash around the Olympics. I’m excited for that one this year. We’ve got La Liga coming, which is our first, I think, of this kind of sports entertainment, sport storytelling coming out of Spain later this year.”
