Ever since the Attitude Era, T-shirts for the WWE Superstars have become popular with the WWE Universe. One major example was Stone Cold Steve Austin as you couldn't go anywhere without seeing an Austin 3:16 shirt.
This will be the first article in a monthly series on Sportskeeda taking a look at the Top Ten best selling shirts on WWE Shop. It's always interesting to sort the T-shirts by the best selling ones to see who the WWE Universe is supporting.
This month's list features two WWE Superstars with more than one shirt on the best selling list, a tag team that might surprise you, and a guitar-playing drifter who released a new shirt recently.
Another feature I'll include in my introduction every month is an interesting or funny find on the WWE Shop. This month, it's the WWE Watch Ya' Mouth game. For this game, you have to put a plastic device in your mouth and then read a phrase out loud as your teammates try to guess what you're saying.
The link at WWE Shop has a YouTube clip of WWE Superstars playing the game, check it out:
Without further ado, let's take a look at the tenth best-selling shirt on WWE Shop as of the beginning of March 2018!

#10 Ronda Rousey "Rowdy Ronda Rousey" Authentic T-Shirt
It is no secret that "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey got her inspiration and permission to use the Rowdy nickname from Roddy Piper. The WWE took the bond between Piper and Rousey to create a couple of T-shirts in the design of the Hot Rod himself.
The white version of Rousey's new shirt lands at No.10 on this month's chart, and later on, we'll see another shirt from Rousey. The white one may not have sold as well because, well white shirts are a magnet for food stains!
#9 The Shield "Shield United" Authentic T-Shirt
When The Shield reunited last September, the WWE Universe was extremely excited to see Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and Dean Ambrose together again. Unfortunately, the reunion was cut short when Ambrose tore his triceps and will be out until September possibly.
It's been nearly three months since Ambrose's injury, but this particular Shield shirt is still selling very well. It's one of a few shirts that were released last year, and personally, I like this one the most.
#8 Seth Rollins "Burn It Down" Authentic T-Shirt
We go from The Shield at No. 9 to a member of The Shield with No.8 shirt on WWE Shop in Seth Rollins. Ever since promos for the WWE 2K18 video game started coming out, "Burn It Down" has been a phrase synonymous with Rollins, as in the commercial, he's burning down all of the past artifacts of the WWE.
While his Harlem Heat-inspired wrestling tights may not have been popular, this particular shirt is. This also will not be the last we see of merchandise for 'The Architect' as his latest shirt will appear later on in this Top Ten.
#7 Finn Bàlor “Bàlor Club Forever” T-Shirt
There were rumors that Finn Balor is not "over" enough with the WWE Universe according to Vince McMahon. Those rumors turned into a running joke for Balor on social media, and then WWE decided to capitalise it with the most recent shirt on WWE Shop.
As you can see, OVER is colored red while the rest of the letters are white. Balor has had several shirts released on WWE Shop during his career, and nearly every shirt has had a cool design in my opinion. I own almost all of his shirts to be honest, except this one. I will soon though.
#6 Roman Reigns "This is My Yard" Authentic T-Shirt
The Big Dog is up next at No.6 with his latest design and the tagline he started when feuding with The Undertaker last WrestleMania, "it's my yard." I really like the colors and design on the front of the shirt, it looks really sharp.
A large segment may boo Roman Reigns, but there is a large segment that is buying his merchandise as well. He'll definitely be a mainstay in the top ten rundown of best selling shirts on WWE Shop.
#5 The Usos "Down Since Day One Ish" Authentic T-Shirt
Whether you pronounce it "Day One Ish" or "Day One Is H", The Usos have the fifth best selling shirt currently on WWE Shop. The change in personality has definitely paid off for these twin brothers and now they have a gimmick to match their impressive in-ring work.
This entry is the most surprising to me in the top ten for a couple of reasons. It's a fairly old shirt, and I didn't realise The Usos were a big seller of merchandise considering they're heels, but it tells you that the WWE Universe is behind what they're doing.
#4 Ronda Rousey "Rowdy Ronda Rousey" Black Authentic T-Shirt
Rousey is kind of a big deal, and her signing a contract with the WWE was definitely major news. There is definitely proof that the WWE Universe is excited for her arrival as she had the No.10 best selling shirt, and also this shirt at No. 4.
This week on Monday Night Raw, the tensions between Rousey and The Authority boiled over and it ended up with Triple H sucker punching Kurt Angle. That hot angle from this week definitely helped to boost her shirt sales.
#3 Seth Rollins "Monday Night Rollins" T-Shirt
If you count The Shield, Seth Rollins has a total of three shirts in the top ten of WWE Shop. That is definitely an impressive feat. His newest shirt, Monday Night Rollins is a take-off of wanting to become THE guy on Monday Night Raw in his promo with Angle a few weeks ago.
Just like Balor, Rollins consistently has some great shirts being offered on WWE Shop. I own a couple of his shirts, and this one is definitely on my wishlist for the future. Now if the WWE made the Monday Night Revival shirt available, but maybe that was scrapped after this shirt was released.
#2 Elias "Walk With Elias" Authentic T-Shirt
By now, we all know what WWE stands for, WALK WITH ELIAS! I love what the WWE is doing with Elias' merchandise by creating T-shirts similar to what bands would sell at their concerts.
As you can see on this shirt, there is a list of all the cities that Elias is planning to play for in 2018 as part of the Monday Night Raw brand. He's become a fast-rising star in the WWE, and the fact that his latest shirt is the No. 2 bestseller is proof that a lot of people want to walk with Elias.
#1 Rusev "Happy Rusev Day" Authentic T-Shirt
First off, I want to wish everyone reading this article a Happy Rusev Day. It is no surprise that one of the most over WWE Superstars has the top-selling shirt on WWE Shop in Rusev.
Recently WWE Shop sold the Rusev Day calendar, and it sold out very quickly. No matter if it is a Monday Night Raw or a SmackDown Live, you can hear Rusev Day chants throughout the arena.
Now if only these shirt sales lead to a WWE Championship run, because I think the man deserves it!
