I was curious about big time products that had either commercials or promotional campaigns using stars from a company outside of WWE.
*Cue THAT Sting Sprite commercial*

Loving these responses so far Anyone Know If ROH has done any commercials for anyone? I know they’re not really mainstream or anything, but I could see them being a good match for something that really embraces itself as being cutting edge or alternative.

Tim Horner did one of those BC Powder commercials a few years back.
Of course there was the Goldberg/Meng pizza commercial.
And all the Von Erich pizza commercials.

Jay Lethal did a commercial for one of their sponsors, shilling a knee brace or a back brace, something like that. It was during his time as TV champ, I believe, and the spiel he gave had a couple cringey wrestling puns.

When we say "mainstream" are we talking nationwide/worldwide stuff or any local auto sales ad?
Asking because if it's the latter, there are literally hundreds. Hell, Lawler's done dozens if not hundreds of commercials for local Memphis companies, and many of them before his WWE time.
John Nord (Berzerker) did some for his family's auto center, including an infamous one that is shown at the beginning of his mockumentary film.
And somewhere on tape, I have a early 2000s commercial that was shown during the NWA-Wildside syndication of Jim Cornette trying to sell some used CDs to a mom&pop music store.

I think we can be flexible with our definition of mainstream so that way we get more whacky ads and such But I’m most interested in more big time commercials.

A powder, it's... not a pill, you know most people reach for a pill, I reach for a powder, you know what I'm saying? What is it, CD Powder? CD Powder?" "BC, Tim." "BC Powder, that's...you know you get a headache that feels like somebody just knockin' on your head with a... with the ring bell or something? Well, you can knock that headache out with B...BC Headache Powder and put it down for the three count."

Well I guess this sort of counts as Warrior did this before he went to the WWE.
