According to data released by Tubular, WWE recorded the most number of views across social media platforms YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram in June.

WWE recorded over 133 crore views across the world on the four social media platforms during June. It is nearly 30% more than the International Cricket Council content consumption during the period.

SmackDown has also helped launch the careers of pop-culture icons including Dwayne The Rock Johnson, John Cena, Triple H, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin and The Bella Twins in its 20-year history.
