Someone aware me on what's the issue with this particular American Football team?
(never mind was an easy Google job. Seems the team is owned by a guy that owns a different wrestling company)
The Jacksonville Jaguars are owned by Tony Khan, who also owns AEW

As far as I can see, the Detroit Lions aren't on the site. I like to believe they know no one would buy a Lions belt, as opposed to them selling out.

Yeah, what’s more likely… Jacksonville’s WWE belt sold out quickly because of wrestling fans liking the weirdness or WWE willingly pissing off the NFL by refusing to stock a Jacksonville belt because of wrestling reasons? Good point. NFL are more wealthy than even WWE. I'm absolutely certain folks (who aren't Jaguars fans) bought the Jags one as a collectors item or even to resell because they knew it would be a very unique item because of the Kahn connection. Like, let’s look at this logically. This shit would’ve been in the works for months. WWE would’ve known the whole time they’d have to do this for all 32 teams, including the AEW guy’s one, because of this apparent arrangement in the bargaining agreement that all teams get equal merch allocation (as referenced on the last page), or else there’d likely be no deal done at all. And WWE aren’t just f***ing with their own money here, it’s the NFL and their merch partner getting cuts. Why would they risk pissing off everybody just for petty wrestling reasons? If anything, they’d probably be having a little flex over the fact that they are licenced to make money off of an AEW-adjacent property and not AEW itself.

It looks like a couple of the other teams are selling out now as well. I imagine these will be a hit with those crazy Bills Mafia fans.

Not going to lie, I actually dig the Jaguar belt. Something about it works.

Great googly moogly the prices on those things. Pretty cool for those who don’t mind shelling out but sheesh.

Assuredly the Browns have already sold two.
One for Miz and a backup one for Miz when he loses the first one to Creed somehow.

This has “rare photo of Sean Connery signed by Roger Moore” energy written all over it.
I know nothing of the NFL but there’s no f***ing way the Jags belt sold out before any other based on Jags fans.
Edit because I totally had the wrong TK owned team, which kind of proves my point.

Proof that not only does the Jags belt exist but WWE is weird:

No shock these things are selling out despite the price.
Maybe they try some college teams like Bama, Oklahoma, Oho State, Michigan, Texas, UGA, USC, and other big football programs. Those will sell out.

My thing was never the fact that they sold out or that it was an intentional ploy by WWE...Just that it was insanely weird that the first one would be the Jags of all teams unless I guess people may think it will be a financial gain to grab em all

These belts are also being sold on NFLShop, so there's more eyes being seen on them there than WWE's store by far.

Detroit's place in wrestling history makes it not a shock that they're one of the first teams to sell out. Hell, not just Detroit's place, but where the Lions play with Mania 3, Mania 23, and SummerSlam 2023 all taking place in their stadiums.
