The new WWE Magazine will replace both RAW and SmackDown! Magazine. It was originally thought that the company would begin releasing three magazines each month, however, they’ll only be releasing one. RAW & SmackDown! Magazine will come to an end with their respective July issues.
Current subscribers of RAW and/or SmackDown! Magazine will have the chance to convert their subscription to the new WWE Magazine or have it cancelled for a refund.
WWE.com has removed all of the magazine content from their site as well as every reference promoting the respective magazines. Instead, they are promoting the new WWE Magazine featuring Batista on the cover.
With the first WWE Magazine set to hit newsstands the middle of next month, it appears as if WWE is attempting to make it some type of lifestyle magazine to appeal to an older audience, instead of the generally kayfabe magazines, targeted for younger kids.
Below is a preview of the new publication:
The new WWE Magazine will put you behind the scenes with your favorite Superstars and Divas. For the first time ever, you can see exclusive photos, original interviews and receive useful tips from WWE talent on fitness, gadgets, video games, cars and lots more.
