October 13, 2016I am not a huge wrestling fan but I do watch wrestling from time to time and I was really into wrestling in 2012. During 2012 WWE partnered with tech startup Tout. Tout gave you the Vine or Instagram like experience using short video clips. Tout gave you the experience of 15-second mobile video with a social media platform the same as others in the market give you today.

WWE during the show would show fan made videos about RAW and show case backstage content going on during the show. WWE would use the platform to announce updates about Jerry Lawler when he had his heart attack in September of 2012 and Brock Lesnar used the service to announce his retirement in August 2012 as part of a storyline.

On February 24, 2014, WWE launched their own app along with the WWE network. WWE promotion and effort went into promoting their own network and app. The WWE’s partnership with Tout expired in 2014 and they stopped using it afterward. Tout is still in business used by Wall Street...
