7 WWE T-Shirts That Were Total Rip-Offs

5. Old School Heeling

Staying momentarily with CM Punk, the Chicago native has never been shy about showing off his knowledge (and love) of old school wrestling. His occasional stints at the announce table were riddled with insider references to old wrestlers, and after Randy Savage's death, he even began to incorporate a flying elbow into his moveset. Never shy to take a leaf from an old heel's playbook, Punk payed homage to Greg 'The Hammer' Valentine by copying his devastatingly simple t-shirt design during a feud with the Big Show. After breaking the leg of 1970s babyface Wahoo McDaniel, Valentine let the Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling crowd know exactly how much sympathy he felt - none. There's not a lot to say about Punk's 21st century equivalent; it's pretty much identical. The font may be bolder and slightly more pleasing on the eye, but the message is the same: "I know what a horrible thing I've done, and I'm damn proud of it".
