Pro wrestling and video games go together like pigs and slop, and last week, some of the most recognizable names in wrestling joined forces with reality show stars for a celebrity game night. The game of choice? Pixel Flow, a rapidly growing app that serves as catnip for wrestlers who are competitive by nature.
Pro Wrestlers Join Real Housewives For Pixel Flow Game Night
Current and former WWE Superstars descended upon the Pixel Game Event in Atlanta with pro wrestling luminaries ranging from WWE Superstar and former TNA Knockouts champion Jordynne Grace to American Ninja Warrior Kacy Catanzaro (fka Katana Chance.) Dean Muhtadi (fka Mojo Rawley), Noelle Foley and Cassie Lee (fka Peyton Royce) joined Real Housewives stars Porsha Williams and Teresa Giudice in a night of friendly, fast-paced gaming. Each luminary locked in as they looked to topple each other in a simple, but exciting series of gaming duels.
The Pixel Flow event, emanating from Sloomoo Institute, was a real-life stimulation super center splashed with bright colors and immersive entertainment stations such as slime and jumping pads doused underneath neon lights. In an era where content is king, the aesthetic of the gaming studio made for eye-catching posts across social media. Pixel Flow comes with a primarily female demo, and the involvement of WWE personalities creates a bridge for wrestlers to collaborate with pillars of this elusive audience.
Shortly after the event, social content on various channels made the game—and the event—come to life.
Pixel Flow is a fast-paced and highly addictive action-puzzle game where the user taps their phone to send pigs onto a conveyor belt. Each pig shoots balls onto cubes of their own color, and the goal is to use strategy to eliminate every color of cube on the screen.
Built by Loom Games, Pixel Flow made almost $200 million in player spending during its first year, and was named Game of the Year at the 2026 Pocket Gamer Mobile Games Awards. This past February, Scopely—one of the world’s leading mobile gaming companies—acquired a majority stake in the studio behind Pixel Flow at a valuation of over $1 billion.
As WWE continues to find new and exciting ways to leverage partnerships with its exponentially growing brand—sometimes to its fans’ chagrin—independent wrestlers and content creators are following suit through inventive collaborations with brands like Pixel Flow. It’s becoming more apparent that wrestling’s mainstream exposure has developed a trickle-down effect.
