It cannot be underestimated just how big a deal it is that US clothing giant have elected to sell (and heavily promote) Bullet Club branded attire. It is a relationship between gimmick and point-of-sale not experienced since Stone Cold Steve Austin shirts became the items to sport at the very height of the Attitude Era. The logo, ethos and style has surpassed its own existence in wrestling, becoming a fashion staple people want to be seen to be a part of.
