10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About The New Day

Say what you like about WWE, but you have to admit their T-shirts are pretty cool. Some of them can even be worn by grown adults without any (well, almost any) fear of being pointed and laughed at by friends and co-workers.

Not all of their designs are totally OK with everyone all the time, though. Case in point: a New Day shirt introduced to the company's online shop recently, whose print bore an uncanny resemblance to the logo used by hip hop trio Run-DMC.

According to a Tweet from Big E, the group went so far as to file a cease and desist request against WWE, which may ultimately result in the shirt in question being pulled from the company's online shop (although it hasn't yet).

It's not as though there aren't a million other designs you can order in its place (one of which comes with an empty cereal box), but all the same, it's probably a chapter in New Day's history which the company won't be revisiting any time soon.
