The Best AEW Merchandise

“YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH!” That loud statement is attached to the beloved big boot throwing, Discus Lariat master known as Brodie Lee. His passing in 2020 was a huge blow to the wrestling industry that’s still being felt to this day. AEW honored his memory with an amazing tribute show and this classy t-shirt that shows Mr. Lee all the love & adoration he deserves.

2021 will forever be remembered by wrestling fans as the year that marked the in-ring return of CM Punk. As soon as he made his AEW debut, the Chicago crowd came unglued and even shed a few tears in response. Once Punk took off his hoodie, he exposed everyone to his latest t-shirt. And at that momentum, all you could hear were the sounds of cash registers going off. The design of this one is simple, straight to the point, and fully encompasses Punk’s main personality traits.

“IT’S STING!” When Tony Schiavone belted out those famous words back in 2020, everyone lost their minds when the face-painted legend emerged in Daily’s Place. Sting’s first piece of official AEW merchandise has been a bestseller since day one and will always continue to be. The double bats, the black & white motif, and the signature image of Sting’s fearsome face are front & center on this one.

ADAM COLE BAY BAY! At All Out 2021, the former NXT/WWE superstar shocked the world by making quite the entrance in his new home company of AEW. And of course, he arrived in his first piece of official AEW merchandise. The message was heard and definitely seen on TV across the country - ADAM COLE IS ALL ELITE BAY BAY! That black and gold color scheme will forever be associated with Mr. Cole.

Another shocking moment that took place at All Out 2021 was the debut of the “American Dragon.” Bryan Danielson entered the NOW Arena to thunderous cheers and walked the ramp while a beat that sounded like it came straight from a Migos track blared over the speakers. Danielson loves his white tees, but AEW made sure to represent him with this super dope black shirt that’s adorned by his name, nickname, and an awesome design.

RIP to Mr. Lee once again. We’ll always have all the love in the world for the fallen revered leader of The Dark Order. During that storied stint, he quickly became a powerful force and turned his stable into a more viable force. One of the first shirts given to him has and always will be one of AEW’s best pieces of apparel. Always keep your third eye open, fam! The black and purple seen all over this shirt look good in every season.

You might not want to wear this one around the young ones, that’s for sure. But young kids are usually in the crowd during AEW shows, so matter a fact? Go on ahead and rock this bloody piece of apparel whenever you feel like it. The infamous image of Dr. Britt Baker being busted wide open during her Unsanctioned Lights Out match with Thunder Rosa is one of her biggest moments. Thankfully, that star-making scene got plastered onto this shirt. And damn it looks great!

Orange Cassidy is a simple man who doesn’t do a whole lot until he’s forced to do so. That lifestyle approach is perfectly encapsulated here on this clever ode to the “Freshly Squeezed” fan favorite. Best Yearbook Photo Ever? That honor might truly belong to a man that’s not afraid to rock a pair of shades indoors at all times. Be sure to rock the half-thumbs-up pose when you have this shirt on.

You know the logo. You love the company. And you probably have that same logo tattooed onto your body somewhere. If you’d rather rock the AEW logo in a more temporary manner, then this shirt works as a great alternative.

Show this shirt to a non-wrestling fan and they’d most likely ask you to get them one, too. Christian Cage’s first official AEW shirt has a life motto that anyone and everyone can live by. And if you’ve been a diehard follower of the Canadian great since his Brood days, then you realize how true the statement on this shirt truly is. This is without a doubt one of Christian’s finest shirts throughout his entire career.

"GOTTA GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT!" All the props in the world to commentator Excalibur for gifting the three-man Best Friends stable with that fire quotable. This T-Shirt comes with a cool cartoony art style that showcases anthropomorphized versions of Chuck Taylor, Trent, and Orange Cassidy. If anyone tells you dogs and cats simply don’t get along, prove them wrong by wearing this beauty.

If there’s one thing you have to appreciate about AEW, it’s the fact that they never miss an opportunity to hop on a super hot trend. When Eddie Kingston came out to verbally demolish Miro, he dropped this hilarious gem of a quote. And like clockwork, AEW wasted no time throwing it on a shirt. The phrase “Deez Nuts” will never not be funny - shout out to Eddie for throwing an extra word in front of it for that extra hilarity factor.

Kenny Omega’s most standout shirt is most definitely this one. It gives off heavy puroresu vibes, which is fitting since that’s where Omega competed the most before he became “All Elite.” The pink color scheme certainly sets it apart from the other options on this list, that’s for sure. As far as visually striking AEW merchandise goes, this Omega shirt stands tall as one of the best.

The tatted-up badass formerly known as Aleister Black now has a home in AEW. And so far, he’s proven to be a great asset to the company thanks to his believability as an in-ring killer. His memorable entrance certainly adds to his aura and the mask Malakai wears is part of that reason. Thankfully, the mystical headwear can be seen front and center on this sick shirt.

Malakai’s other piece of apparel is this dope t-shirt that makes anyone who wears it an honorary member of the “House of Black.” Are cults cool? Depends on whoever you’re asking, really. But we’re guessing most wrestling fans would seriously consider joining Malakai’s ass-kicking collective.

Ruby Riott’s WWE release was upsetting. But she eventually recovered and made her over to the greener pastures of AEW. Her debut at All Out proved that the fans love her and have already embraced her as an important pillar of the company. The videos she released before her AEW debut stuck to the theme of her being a “runaway,” which is showcased on this shirt. Ruby’s metal-theme jacket looks awesome here.

And here we have the first AEW logo-adorned hoodie on our list. It handles its simple job well as a nice showpiece for the most hardcore of AEW diehards. Plus it’ll keep you warm during those chillier months of the year, obviously.

Darby Allin is clearly one of the biggest young stars within AEW. His daredevil attitude, incredible theme song, and association with Sting have lifted him to the higher plateaus of the company’s massive roster. Darby’s an avid skateboard enthusiast and you can get that point across to non-fans with this t-shirt in tow.

AEW’s debut event set the stage for the company’s march into solidifying itself as a major force in professional wrestling. Double or Nothing 2019 was and still is the quintessential AEW PPV and needs to be a part of any wrestling fan’s DVD collection. Cody vs. Dustin Rhodes is worth the price of admission alone!

Before All Out 2021, a lot of fans referred to this show as the greatest AEW PPV of all time. Even still, AEW Revolution 2019 still holds up as a must-watch event. It features one of the best tag team matches of all time in Kenny Omega & Adam Page vs. The Young Bucks, a great main event between Chris Jericho & Jon Moxley, and an eye-opening performance from Orange Cassidy against Pac.

AEW Full Gear 2019 features two marquee matches that made a lot of wrestling fans take notice - Chris Jericho vs. Cody Rhodes for the AEW World Championship and Jon Moxley vs. Kenny Omega in a brutal Unsanctioned Lights Out Match. The atmosphere at this show must be seen to be believed if you haven’t already.

The sequel to the independent trend-setting event known as All In ended up meeting the high standards set by that groundbreaking show. All Out 2019’s match card comes with great matches such as Cody Rhodes vs. Shawn Spears, the Lucha Brothers vs. The Young Bucks, and Pac vs. Kenny Omega.

The E.T. vibes are clearly splattered all over this awesome ode to the whole Best Friends collective. Everyone’s favorite alien just so happens to be a great women’s wrestler. And she’s linked up with three of the most beloved guys on the AEW roster. You can’t help but enjoy the fun-loving antics of this stable and eventually walk around with this cute wearable dedication.

Unscripted Violence is the creed that Jon Moxley lives by. And every time he hits the ring, the fans have come to expect some hardcore action from one of its indie legends turned mainstream superstars. This hockey team-themed t-shirt is a pretty cool representation of Moxley’s violent tendencies (Moxley would always be looking for a fight on the ice, wouldn’t he?).

The AEW logo practically looks good on everything at this point. It especially stands out when placed onto this slick hoodie. Your love for wrestling’s most “elite” organization will immediately catch everyone’s attention since the AEW logo is placed on the front and back sides of this awesome piece of apparel.
