Genuinely a big deal for AEW here; getting merch into real world normal stores is one of those things that says they're building up enough brand presence to actually matter.

It's also a big part of how NJPW/Bullet Club/The Elite were able to build up a big fanbase in the US beyond the hardcore smark crowd. |

Don't forget that WWE started selling their own shirts at Hot Topic after they saw how well Bullet Club/The Elite's shirts were selling. |

Love Swerve's shirt. Looks like the logo for House Party.

They sold a bunch of Ramones shirts too, and none of the customers could tell you who were in the Ramones either! |

Hot Topic Owners: What's that over there? The mall: That's a broom closet. Hot Topic Owners: We'll take it! The mall: Are you sure, we can offer you- *Hot Topic Owners already backing up 14 dump trucks full of merchandise* |
