The 7 Most Bizarre Pieces Of WWE Merchandise

Whenever you go to a wrestling show, there's bound to be merchandise. T-shirts, belts, posters, wristbands, figures, if you want it, they've got it! But what about those weird pieces of merchandise that didn't exactly fly off the shelves. Today we count down 10 of the WEIRDEST pieces of WWE merch ever sold.

6. APA's Always Pounding A** T-Shirt

Come for the food, stay for the a**-pounding.

The APA was a truly dominant tag-team in the Attitude Era. They're hard-knocks, beer swigging demeanor won over many crowds, who wanted to be tough guys, drinking beer and smoking cigars, just like Farooq and Bradshaw.

And how do you show you're a tough-guy? Probably not by buying this shirt.

It's hard to imagine even the most die-hard APA fan wearing this at a house show, or even worse, in public. I don't know how no-one in the creative-team spoke up and said it was a bad idea. I much would have preferred just APA: Bar and Grill.

5. WWE Pizza Prints

Pizza! When it's good, it's good! When it's bad, it's still pretty good. Who can resist a nice crisp base, topped with a rich, velvety Tomato sauce, draped with mozzarella and toppings? Clearly, WWE couldn't because they gave us these very curious Pizza Prints.

Emblazoned with stars such as John Cena, The Undertaker, and Rey Mysterio, these prints would surely put any little wrestling fans' birthday party on the next level. However, for anyone else, this seems like more hassle for what has been reported as a very artificial taste.

That said, if you've always wanted to bite off John Cena's head, this is a must buy!

4. Stone Cold Steve Austin Cologne.

There's a saying: you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Whether it's in business or dating, smelling good can be just as important as looking good.

So why on earth, would anyone pick 'Venom', the fragrance of Austin?

Reviews for this were less than stellar, and I can't think of many non-wrestling fans being too thrilled to have their significant other smell like a mix of beer and knee braces.

3. CM Punk Gnome Bench

The real 4 horsemen.

This is actually one of several gnome benches made for WWE superstars, John Cena also had one. But I think this CM Punk set really shows just how weird WWE can be sometimes.

Admittedly, this was on sale once, and I was very tempted. It would've made an excellent talking point at any pay per view viewing party.

Nothing says 'best in the world anti-authority figure' like gnomes!

2. Sable's Hand Bear

I kinda get this one. Beanie Babies were all the rage in the 1990s. At the time, people claimed that they'd be worth thousands in the future (which didn't exactly pan out for most). In addition, Sable was definitely one of the biggest stars in the early Attitude Era, arguably as marketable as names such as Stone Cold or the Undertaker.

But this is just wrong. Imagine you have a friend come over, and they've never watched wrestling. The ask you to explain this to them. You'd have to go from the hand placement, the name-tag, everything just screams 'erm'.

1. Stone Cold Steve Austin Baby.

Erm...

It's a bad sign that this is Austin's second appearance on this list.

Stone Cold is arguably the biggest star in the WWE's history. So it makes sense to put him on as much merch as possible, even for that ages 0-4 demographic.

With a miniature title, Austin 3:16 vest and matching title, this is the perfect way to get your newborn baby hooked onto wrestling young.

Also, the words "attractively priced, satisfaction guaranteed" has never seemed so sinister...
