Wrestlers Can Utilize Social Media Networking, Too

By Rob Sutter


To say that social media networking can assist businesses alone is not something that I can support, since it has been so versatile in the past. What about for individuals who work in different areas of the world, athletics being one such example? Wrestlers have, for so long, been conditioned to interact with their fans and the Internet has allowed them to do so on a platform is far easier than any other. This level of networking is strong, to say the least, and such athletes have used it well.

Firms such as fishbat operate in separate ways but they understand the importance behind fan interaction. They know that social media networking is just one platform that can be utilized, whether for the sake of business or not. With so many individuals who are going to be intrigued by your business, you want to make sure that you address them well. Constant interaction is more important than perpetual advertising and I believe that those companies which have been around for so long understand this, too.

Fans want to keep in touch with their favorite wrestlers, which goes without saying. Back in the days when Hulk Hogan was running roughshod in WWE, the only way that you could feasibly send messages to wrestlers is through fan mail and it was unlikely they'd respond to every message. Those days have changed, though, and now interaction is as simple as typing and clicking. You have to wonder how much different the scene would be if social media had truly developed a couple of decades earlier.

It's clear that a litany of platforms exist, each of them proving themselves in the greatest of ways possible when it comes to gauging personalities. Big E Langston's personality, on television, is hard to describe because very rarely does he ever get the chance to vocalize himself. However, those who have seen his Twitter page know all too well just how humorous he could be. It's the kind of character that, in theory, should translate well to the action that is seen on the TV shows WWE maintains.

Isn't it fair to assume that people can get away with acting a certain way on the Internet than anywhere else? Perhaps this is true but you should also consider the idea that the way individuals are on Twitter, for example, relate to their personalities in real-life scenarios. I don't think that this is something to be argued against, especially when you see how certain wrestlers are through various channels. Such platforms have proven themselves so far and will continue to do so in the future.
