WWE posted the following announcement regarding an interesting launch this Thursday regarding their online video content. It's actually something that will generate a decent amount of press once launched. Here's the announcement:

On Thursday, WWE.com will launch its brand new broadband network. For the first time ever WWE fans will be able to access all the free videos on WWE.com from one convenient location. The network will feature new content every day and host fan-favorites like Superstar entrance videos, Heat, OMG Moments, Hardcore Hangover, previews of upcoming WWE DVDs and of course, weekly Raw and SmackDown highlights.

WWE.com currently streams over 40 million videos a month, and since WWE fans seem to love our videos, we’ve decided to give you even more to love! The WWE.com broadband network will launch with eight brand new web-only programs.

WWE Sidesplitters will be a weekly show featuring hilarious moments from WWE programming past and present. For the romantically challenged, Val Venis’ Sex-U will offer up love tips from Superstars like Maria, Viscera and Val himself. Seein’ Superstars will focus on Hollywood celebs like the Carters, Steve-O, and Kevin Federline when they attend WWE events.

To catch the rest of the brand new shows, log on to WWE.com on Thursday -- you’ll be glad you did.


Remember the Hulk Hogan Grill? It never took off in the United States in sales. So there is now a renewed push for the product, this time though it will be focused overseas. Here's the press release issued today for the grill:

Two power houses in the infomercial marketing business, TriStar Products, Inc. and Astral Brands, Inc., work together to internationally launch the Hulk Hogan Ultimate Grill.

Fairfield, NJ; Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) January 30, 2007 -- TriStar Products, Inc., recognized as a pioneer of innovative ideas in the infomercial business, and Astral Brands, Inc., a strategic marketer of luxury consumer lifestyle products, announced an agreement to launch the Hulk Hogan Ultimate Grill internationally. It was TriStar Products' expertise with kitchen electronics -- notably the Jack LaLanne Power Juicer -- that captured the attention of Robert Cohen, CEO of Astral Brands, and ultimately led to the partnership.

TriStar Products has an outstanding reputation as one of the largest product development and marketing companies for food-related products and appliances," Cohen said. "Their knowledge in this area, coupled with Astral Brands' expertise in consumer products, results in a powerful combination of creativity and DRTV innovation."

Located in Fairfield N.J., TriStar Products is led by President and CEO Kishore (Keith) Mirchandani, who has 20 years of direct marketing experience. "TriStar Products has exceeded $300 million in sales for the Jack LaLanne Power Juicer," said Mirchandani. "We look forward to partnering with Astral Brands to make the Hulk Hogan Ultimate Grill an international success. This joint venture between TriStar Products and Astral Brands is a case where one plus one equals four. Two powerful companies are able to more than double their marketing effectiveness."

Key to the success of the Grill launch is a 30-minute infomercial featuring Hulk Hogan himself. The infomercial was filmed at TriStar Media City, a division of TriStar Products, and produced by industry veterans Rick McIntosh and Billy Mays of Million Dollar Inventions. TriStar Media City is a 65,000-square foot building, housing a high-definition studio for inventors who want to promote their product via direct TV infomercials, home shopping networks, cable and traditional network TV commercials. TriStar Products is the only direct response company with its own state-of-the-art, fully-staffed commercial film and video production and post-production center.
