WWE had previously announced a partnership with Slim Jim in August of 2023, marking the beginning of this collaboration at Summerslam. However, on January 25th, 2024, WWE unveiled “The WWE & Slim Jim® Car Sweepstakes.”

Unfortunately, the official contest page on WWE.com has since been taken down, displaying the message “You are not authorized to access this page.”

This move hints at a potential strain in their relationship, which may be linked to the recent accusations against Vince McMahon regarding sex trafficking.

The future of this partnership appears to be hanging in the balance. On Friday afternoon, the Twitter account @WrestleVotes brought attention to the situation by reporting that there are murmurs suggesting that Slim Jim has informed WWE of their decision to withdraw their sponsorships from the upcoming Royal Rumble event, which is scheduled for the following day. The ultimate fate of their partnership remains uncertain at this time.

“Hearing rumblings that Slim Jim has notified WWE they are pulling their sponsorships from tomorrow’s Royal Rumble event. It is yet to be determined if they will remain partners in the future.”

The future of the WWE and Slim Jim partnership remains uncertain, and it will be interesting to see how this situation unfolds and whether it represents a larger trend in how sponsors and partners navigate their relationships with WWE in light of such controversies.
