Among those sponsors were Snickers, Minute Maid, Cricket Wireless and Wingstop. They landed deals with the  sports producer's regular weekly “Raw" show, which marked its own shift In January 2025.  That's when "Raw" moved from USA Network, a linear TV network, to a streaming model at Netflix.

This compares to WWE’s sister sport-fight TV brand, UFC, which pulled in 47.4% new sponsors --46 -- in 2025 versus the year before.

The two brands are distributed by TKO Group Holdings. Combined efforts totalled 75 new brands, with some brands appearing across both. Overall, the two sports content providers have 136 unique brands, with a 55.1% overall new-entrant rate.

Estimates from SponsorUnited also say UFC took in $314 million in sponsorship revenue. With WWE, total sports fighting brands at TKO were at $474 million in sponsorship revenue.
