WWE Hiring Legal Power to Handle Global Talent Travel

WWE isn’t just planning international events—they’re building a legal army to make sure everyone can actually get there. The company just dropped two key job listings that show how serious they are about handling visas, work permits, and immigration logistics for their global roster of superstars.

One of the roles, Paralegal, Global Immigration, is focused on managing the international travel needs of WWE talent and crew. That means working across borders, tracking legal documents, and keeping every event legally air-tight. The official description notes the hire will:

“Manage the international immigration processes for all talent and event personnel to participate in events in various countries around the world… maintaining and updating both hard copy and electronic international immigration files.”

But that’s just the start. WWE is also looking to hire an Immigration Counsel for the Americas—a senior-level legal expert who will oversee complex visa strategies for employees and talent across the U.S., Canada, Latin America, and beyond. According to the official listing, this attorney will:

“Provide advice on Americas immigration strategy for employees, talent and other Americas immigration matters for assigned TKO businesses.”

“Liaise with external counsel… track visa milestones… respond to immigration appeals… and coordinate with TKO offices internationally regarding visa requirements.”

And that’s not all. The role includes ensuring compliance with I-9 laws, working on immigration aspects of mergers and acquisitions, and managing legal audits for WWE’s expanding live event footprint. The job is no joke—it even includes:

“Lead and oversee immigration and paralegals for the assigned TKO businesses… ensuring that all processing for their assigned events are completed accurately and timely.”

It’s crystal clear: as WWE continues to grow under the TKO umbrella, especially with UFC in the mix, they’re prioritizing the logistics of global movement for stars like Roman Reigns, Rhea Ripley, and Gunther.

From tracking visas to building immigration compliance policies, WWE is investing in infrastructure behind the curtain—because without the paperwork, there’s no show abroad.

Do you think this signals even more international WWE expansion in 2025 and beyond? Should WWE be investing even more into global live events? Drop your thoughts in the comments—we want to hear from you.
