Harley said that Mercedes wanted to sell puppets so it sounds like a Tony Khan issue.... AEW has never had a great merch machine probably because one of the Young Bucks wives was running that department
Biggest problem is lack of available options for handling the wide breadth of merch options beyond the basics.

PW Tees isn’t remotely capable of providing the breadth of merchandise options that Fanatics does for WWE, and Fanatics basically has a monopoly.

But that's a recent thing. Fanatics didn't always do that. WWE had a merch machine with plenty of options for years. I feel like TK could be doing a lot better with that

WWE owned and operated their merch department before they moved to Fanatics.

There’s a reason why all these leagues and shyt moved to Fanatics even though it sucks. Any potential loss in revenue due to moving to Fanatics is but a drop in the bucket to the cost savings that comes with outsourcing it.

Now I’m wondering if PENTA had the same issue cause the fans were clamoring for his mask :francis: those Mercedes puppets would do #s

SN actually got my PENTA mask in the mail on WM Night 1 when I copped after his RAW debut, sh!t is legit

Penta was selling his own mask and didn’t want to give up the copyright for it.

That’s the main difference between the companies

Ones a business the other isn’t
