Rumor-Killer: AEW Still Working With Pro Wrestling Tees

Pro Wrestling Tees has shot down a rumor floating around that they are no longer working with AEW. The rumor came from a post made to the Squared Circle Reddit alleging that Pro Wrestling Tees laid off “the whole merch design team” that worked with the wrestling company. The post was made by someone who claimed to be part of that team and said that the layoffs were “a direct consequence of AEW ending their partnership with PWTees.”

That is apparently not the case, as Pro Wrestling Tees reached out to Fightful Select to deny the report. The statement by PWT reads:

“The person who made the reddit post circulating has no knowledge of our business. ‬

‪Nothing on that post is true except that we unfortunately told some of our contracted designers that we would not need them for as many AEW designs anymore. ‬

‪Some of the AEW designers are still contracted.

Nothing has changed otherwise and we are still fulfilling merchandise for AEW.”

Pro Wrestling Tees has been the official merchandise partner of the Tony Khan-led promotion since its launch in 2019.
