'Nextbite,' the company famous for its creation of themed virtual brands, has launched 'Smackadillas,' a restaurant collaboration with the WWE. This brand will be available now until mid-April, surrounding the 'WrestleMania' event from April 2nd to 3rd. Smackadillas will only be available where WrestleMania is being hosted, which is the Dallas area of Texas.
The foods offered in the Smackadillas line are also WWE-themed, such as 'The Onion Rumble' or the 'Spicy Superstar.'
