Per Levine's LinkedIn profile, he oversaw "WWE’s International social and digital strategy, production, teams, and agencies in 10+ markets, and work in collaboration with WWE’s lines of business including programming, partnerships, marketing, monetization, brand development, talent, content operations, rights strategy, and business planning." Additionally, he led the Platform Strategy team.
