"At Nestlé Waters North America, we are passionate about encouraging families to choose water – whether it's tap, filtered or bottled," said Tara Carraro, Chief Corporate Affairs Officer, Nestlé Waters North America. "With this year's challenge, we hope to continue inspiring families to drink more water when they see their favorite WWE Superstars, who are role models to kids around the world, choose water for themselves."

"WWE is thrilled to announce this year's joint campaign with Nestlé Waters North America, which encourages our fans to promote and share their healthy lifestyles," said John Brody, WWE Executive Vice President, Global Sales & Head of International.

Nestlé Waters North America's purpose is to enhance quality of life and contribute to a healthier future. NWNA helps Americans lead healthier lives by encouraging individuals and families to choose water, whether consumed in a glass, bottle or reusable container. A 2015 survey by Nestlé Waters North America brand Nestlé^® Pure Life^® showed that 97% of moms believe one healthy choice leads to another.
