10 Ways WWE Has Made Twitter As Important As RAW

10. To Hear From Your Favorite WWE Superstar

Years ago, if you wanted to catch a glimpse of your favorite WWE superstar or superstars, you had to tune into Raw. There was no other way to see what your favorite stars were doing or with whom they were feuding.

Sure, there may have been WWE.com articles or a DVD released about the top stars of the company, but what if your favorite superstar was a mid-carder? The only chance you had to see what was new with them was to watch WWE's television programming.

That is not the case today.

Twitter has supplemented Raw and SmackDown as an outlet to learn about your favorite stars. Instead of hoping they'll appear on one of the many segments in a three hour episode of the Monday show, it is now as simple as following that superstar on Twitter to get updates. In addition, fans can now follow both the on-screen and off-screen activities of their favorite WWE superstar.

Many WWE superstars have embraced this platoform in lieu of television time. Most notably, Zack Ryder became so popular through his use of Twitter and social media that WWE was forced to use him on television. This would never have happened in a world without Twitter.
