WWE and The Texas Lottery issued this press release today, to announce their new partnership and promote some new WWE-themed scratch tickets:

“When we found out that WrestleMania 32 is taking place in Dallas, we knew we wanted to be involved,” said Gary Grief, executive director of the Texas Lottery. “We are excited about this opportunity and believe this partnership will be an asset in generating revenue for Texas education.”

“We’re very excited that two of our close friends – WWE and Texas Lottery – have decided to enter into a partnership,” said Dallas Cowboys Chief Brand Officer Charlotte Jones Anderson. “We’ve built a strong relationship with the Texas Lottery over the years and are encouraged to see WWE replicate the same success as we lead up to hosting WrestleMania 32 at AT&T Stadium on April 3, 2016.”

“We are proud to partner with the Texas Lottery, a long-standing and valuable Cowboys partner, and help generate substantial funds for educational programs in Texas,” said Stephanie McMahon, WWE Chief Brand Officer. “This new partnership will not only provide fans with a chance to instantly win cash prizes, but an opportunity to win exclusive once-in-a-lifetime WWE experiences.”

As part of the agreement, the Texas Lottery will be a promotional partner for WrestleMania 32 which includes integration at WrestleMania Axxess – WWE’s four-day, interactive fan festival, presence at WWE live events leading up to WrestleMania, as well as custom digital and social media activations across WWE’s platforms.
