On December 15, WWE will host a themed edition of Worlds Collide inspired by the upcoming Marvel Studios film, Avengers: Doomsday, which is set for release on December 18. This event will feature talent from WWE, NXT, and AAA. In conjunction with these shows, WWE and Fanatics will host WWE World, an immersive fan experience offering exclusive merchandise and autograph opportunities.
