In March 2012, WWE launched a new site that is one of the most advanced implementations of Echo’s real-time web platform to date. Echo enables WWE’s cross platform social interaction through a variety of real-time applications that are built on top of our open platform, including social chatter, real-time comments, lifestreams and data visualization and trending.
"We’ve partnered with Echo to deliver real-time interactivity not just during our live TV broadcasts, but 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. For our fans, the experience doesn’t end when the show goes off the air and we’re excited for our fans to have a conversation with us – and each other, about everything WWE."
- Jason Hoch,
SVP of Digital, WWE

WWE Doubles Page Views, Trends Worldwide on a Weekly Basis

Underneath it all, Echo’s real-time database pulls in real-time posts from Twitter, Facebook, Google+ or any other social network and serves them up in a configurable, interactive stream. This enables WWE to capture all of the social activity that’s taking place about a show, a specific superstar or an event, and make it a central part of their content and engagement strategy. With Echo, WWE becomes the home for these conversations, regardless of how and where the fans choose to interact with the brand.
