WWE Chief Content Officer Paul Levesque talks the acquisition of Mexican wrestling company AAA after WrestleMania 41 Night 1.
WWE announced a new partnership on Thursday, days before the company hosts NXT Great American Bash, “Saturday Night’s Main Event” and Evolution 2.
The pro wrestling giant is getting into the cosmetics space with Maybelline New York. It’s the first time WWE will have an official cosmetics partner. Maybelline will also be the presenting partner for Evolution – the all-female premium live event set for Sunday night.

“As the presenting sponsor of Evolution, we’re not just showing up in the ring; we’re supporting a global community that inspires confidence and self-expression, both in and out of the spotlight,” Whang added.
WWE said Maybelline will have center ring branding for the Evolution event along with a custom vignette and social media integrations.
Evolution is set for Sunday night and will feature superstars from the women’s division only. It’s the second time WWE women will have their own event.
