The Ringer, a Spotify studio following the company’s acquisition, has teamed up with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) to launch a replacement series of original podcasts. The collaboration will bring a refreshed version of “The Masked Man Show,” consistent with Spotify and multiple other efforts.
“The Masked Man Show” will return as a “refreshed” audio series called “The Ringer Wrestling Show,” consistent with Spotify, which says that the refreshed version will increase the speed at which content is published. Beyond that, The Ringer fans can expect a narrative audio series from Bill Simmons, founding father of The Ringer.
The podcast collaboration also will produce live chats with hosts following significant WWE PPV events. For example, WWE personality Evan Mack will get his spot on The Ringer together with his “MackMania” podcast, Spotify revealed, also stating that new “The Ringer Wrestling Show” episodes will be made ringside at the upcoming WWE SummerSlam in Vegas.
By the sounds of it, this is often only the beginning of the latest content coming from The Ringer and WWE to Spotify’s podcasting platform, which has grown substantially to become an exclusive home for a growing number of audio shows. During a statement about this latest audio endeavor, Bill Simmons said:
The Ringer is the premier destination for sports fandom. WWE has used excellent storytelling and iconic characters to determine a worldwide audience of loyal and passionate fans, making this partnership an ideal match. As a lifelong WWE fan, I couldn’t be more excited to figure out requiring a fresh perspective on their most iconic moments and superstars and leverage Spotify’s global scale to share content that we believe everyone will enjoy.
