Despite a slight delay, THQ hopes to continue working with the wrestling giant.
A THQ representative told Gamasutra that despite facing a slight delay, THQ plans on extending their licensing agreement with World Wrestling Entertainment.
In an e-mail message, THQ VP of investor relations and corporate communications Julie MacMedan stated that, "We have the option to extend our video game relationship with the WWE through 2014 and we plan to do so".
THQ now has until December 31, 2009 to renew the licensing contract with the WWE and Jakks Pacific. When the contract is renewed, the agreement will be extended until December 31, 2014. It is unclear, however, if Jakks Pacific will be part of the deal.
