"In the shadow of its previous world colliding efforts between rival platforms Xbox and Playstation, Rocket League is once again crossing boundaries to bring two seemingly disparate audiences together with its newly announced sponsorship of the next WWE pay-per-view.

With a brief Twitter announcement, Rocket League has let its fans and the fans of WWE superstar wrestler’s know, it will be part of the exclusive live PPV event Backlash on May 21 on the WWE network.

The WWE cosigned on the excitement by tweeting its own promotional video showcasing Rocket Leagues involvement. With a few weeks to go, it’s still unclear the level of involvement Rocket League will have during the broadcast, but fans of the wildly popular Windows 10, Xbox One and PS4 game should expect some reasonable tie-ins into the gaming franchise somehow.

Fans of the two franchises are still trying to make heads or tails of the announcement, but the overall sense is that it’s something could ultimately work for the WWE and Rocket League considering their fan bases more than cross the venn diagram of engagement."

Had no idea about this. I completely missed the logo in the ad. DERP!


I love the game so I think it is pretty cool. You think we will see some WWE "items" in Rocket League in the future?

Possible WWE Superstars in Rocket League. I don't think WWE and Rocket League would have done this kind of cross-promotion without an agenda.

Who else would FLIP if Stone Cold's truck ended up in Rocket League in one form or another? Am I the only one thinking this?

Also, agreed. WWE always have some sort of agenda when it comes to cross-promotion.

I forgot that game existed. Personally uninterested unless it leads to an eventual partnership between them that brings us Crush Hour 2. Can you imagine Crush Hour but with the physics and graphics of Rocket League? I'd be sooo down to play Twisty Rocket League, that's all I'm sayin :cool:

...okay now I'm just imagining a mash-up of the Twisted Metal formula with Rocket League physics. Dammit Jeffry why do you have to have all the good ideas? XD
