Wow, I can't even describe how much cooler this shirt is than just about any other shirt they've ever made with only a couple exceptions.
Anyone know if Cena gets creative control over his shirt merchandise ideas like Austin used to? Just asking because I can't see the same people that have put out the last few years worth of garbage shirts coming up with this.

Agreed.
I'm guessing he at least gets input on his stuff, considering a lot of it has the same "This will be funny for people like me who grew up on the 80's theme to them ("Bad Bad Man" video, Pumping up his Reeboks before top rope moves, wearing those Mario Bros. "1UP" wrist bands, his trucker hat with the old Double-W block logo, etc).
I would never, ever wear it, because my preference is towards subtle shirts that look cool enough even after a closer look, and that doesn't quite fit the bill. That being said, it is very awesome and I would subtly jealous of anyone I knew wearing it.
I find the most erotic part of the woman is the boobies.

While I like the shirt as a concept, I only really like the design with the button sequence. I'd wear a shirt with only that on it, but not the whole thing. And it can't be black.

I love that it says SPORTS entertainment system, and they've even parodied the Nintendo seal of quality. I've pretty much abandoned wrestling as of late, but, well, I may still have to buy this...
You believe me, don't you? Please believe what I just said...

Actually I think the shirts have gotten better again. The current crop of Edge and Orton shirts and the latest HBK ones are pretty nice. Cool designs, crests and what not. Not -always- an obvious wrestlers logo, catchphrase or *shiver* face
Then of course there's still the other type of atrocity like the HHH 'all around' shirt (which works forthe Edge sex & violence shirt but not the Hunter one)
Originally posted by OlFuzzyBastardIt is a cool shirt, but does John Cena actually have fans that are old enough to remember Pro Wrestling on the NES? Or the NES, for that matter?
It probably won't matter, they love him whatever he does. He is their hero, they will think it is cool because he wears it, even if they don't know what it means. Plus, kids know how to Google.
Maybe this is a way to make him more appealing to fans in their 30s, like me? It does earn him a few points for sure.

Man, that's a cool shirt. I own a number of wrestling shirts, including an original DX shirt and a nWo shirt that's half "Hollywood" and half "Wolfpak". This is officially my favorite.
I agree. There are a lot of negatives that stem from the brand split, but there are also a ton of postives. Mainly, half the guys on the roster would probably be gone right now.
