Customer Segmentation Examples: There’s a WWE Superstar for Everyone

90 Million Americans Call Themselves “WWE Fans”

WWE, World Wrestling Entertainment, is a decades-old brand whose origin story dates back to 1953. My experience with WWE dates back to 2002, when my superfan boyfriend took me to a Raw live event. And I had fun! Fast forward to 2024, when my now-husband and I took our three children to their first WWE live event, a taping for SmackDown. Over the years, I’ve watched the brand expand its appeal with new audiences. These customer segmentation examples show how WWE carefully cultivates characters to give every fan someone to root for.
