WWE has garnered significant attention over the past week due to its aggressive campaign to issue copyright strikes against content creators, particularly reaction channels, resulting in numerous account bans.
According to Fightful Select, this recent surge represents the most extensive takedown of WWE-related videos created by streamers and content creators to date. The report indicates that these takedowns are being executed using bots from a company called StreamEnforcement. This company claims on its website to provide “a holistic and cost-effective content protection strategy tailored to our partners’ unique needs.”
The report also notes that the restriction and removal of content created by influencers have faced considerable backlash online. Critics point out the hypocrisy, as WWE frequently uses clips from content creators—especially those from reaction channels—for recap segments on television. As of now, WWE has not issued a public statement addressing the situation.
