Even a mighty echidna warrior needs some entertainment now and again, and there is no better televised event than the WWE to bring Knuckles out of hiding and into the spotlight! Yes, to celebrate the upcoming release of Knuckles on Paramount+, Paramount Global has teamed up with the WWE to spread a bit of red onto today's NXT Stand And Deliver Pay Per View Event!
Making his presence known on a Sonic Movie Instagram story, Knuckles arrives at the event alongside WWE superstar Dijak.
Dijak himself posted a video of him sparring alongside Knuckles, showcasing a promotional arcade machine where you can hit a punching bag to score points. However, Dijak would rather show Knuckles' his true power in the ring..
During the broadcast itself, Knuckles can be seen all over, from the ad breaks to the bleachers, even intruding in on ever-important commentary. He can even be seen posing with fans!
While Knuckles can't stay around forever, he certainly made his mark in marketing his new show to the masses. If this is but a taste of how Paramount is marketing Sonic Movie content this year, only time can tell how crazy things will get when Sonic the Hedgehog 3 releases this December!
Knuckles starts streaming on Paramount+ April 26th.
