NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / May 5, 2020 / Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC reminds investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. ("WWE" or the Company") (NYSE:WWE) and certain of its officers, on behalf of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired WWE class A common stock between February 7, 2019 and February 5, 2020, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"). Such investors are encouraged to join this case by visiting the firm's site: www.bgandg.com/wwe.

This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) WWE was experiencing rising tension with the Saudi government and a breakdown in negotiations over a renewed broadcasting distribution deal; (2) the Saudi government and its affiliates had failed to make millions of dollars in payments owed to WWE pursuant to existing contractual commitments between the parties; (3) Orbit Showcase Network ("OSN"), a Saudi-controlled direct broadcast satellite provider, had terminated the broadcast of WWE programming in the first quarter of 2019, despite a contractual obligation to continue such broadcasts, and that this cancellation was symptomatic of a deterioration in the business relationship between the parties; (4) OSN had rebuffed efforts to renew a distribution rights agreement on terms acceptable to WWE; and (5) WWE did not have the ability to expand its operations in the Middle East or within Saudi Arabia as had been represented to investors.
