Vince McMahon Merchandise Removed From WWE Shop

Join us at the Fifth Annual 80s Wrestling Con on Saturday, May 4th, at the Mennen Sports Arena in Morristown, NJ, featuring The Four Horsemen, Jake Roberts, and More! 80sWrestlingCon.com.

WWE appears to be taking steps to distance themselves from Vince McMahon.

Fans who are already in Tampa for Royal Rumble weekend have noticed that a Vince McMahon shirt that was displayed on Thursday for sale is no longer available as of today. The shirt was also up on WWEShop.com but was pulled sometime within the last few hours. The shirt was on WWEShop.com earlier this morning. The shirt was made to commemorate the McMahon winning the 1999 Rumble match.

The fallout from the McMahon-WWE lawsuit continues as WrestleVotes reported this afternoon that there were rumblings within the company that Slim Jim has told WWE that they would be pulling out of their Royal Rumble sponsorship. So far, there's no word on if other sponsors plan on doing the same. The lawsuit has been mentioned in many mainstream media outlets. NBC News, among other big networks, covered it during their news broadcasts on Thursday.
