According to a joint statement, Fanatics' digital collectibles company, Candy Digital, will become one of WWE's primary NFT partners. Candy's team of world-class artists, designers, will curate and build a full range of high-quality trading card NFTs featuring WWE's biggest moments and stars.

Some of the upcoming NFT collections will be released sporadically, correlating with the unpredictability of the wrestling business.
<blockquote><em>“Fanatics is the industry leader and Michael Rubin is a visionary,” </em>said Vince McMahon, WWE chairman and CEO, in a statement. <em>“We believe this multi-platform partnership will set a new standard for WWE e-commerce, apparel and merchandise, while providing our fans globally with more ways than ever to engage with WWE and our Superstars.”</em></blockquote>

NFTs and trading cards have become a hot area in the sports world, with companies like Tom Brady’s Autograph and NBA Top Shot creators Dapper Labs all exploring the space. While Candy Digital is a newer entrant but with Fanatics behind it's definitely going to make a splash.
