Absolute Sports, the parent company of Sportskeeda and a part of Nazara Technologies, is set to buy two pro-wrestling media platforms—TJRWrestling and ITRWrestling—for $1.25 million in cash.

The platforms which Titan Insider Digital owns, will be acquired through Sportskeeda’s US branch, Sportskeeda Inc. The deal is expected to close in 45 days, pending usual conditions.
