Fans of the three or four top superstars on the main WWE roster should not have an issue finding a t-shirt of their favorite wrestler. Fans of the superstars and divas that receive less publicity and aren't spotlighted as much might struggle to find a shirt they like. Rumors have existed for years about John Cena's merch being pushed more so than others, with some whispers even suggesting that other talents' gear was purposely shorted and replaced with Cena apparel instead. The truth of the matter is unlikely to ever be shared, but WWE are no different than many other corporate environments in which the rich get richer. It pays to be Vince McMahon's top earner because he'll see to it that his top superstars continue to earn. It can be an embarrassment of riches or a vicious cycle, depending on the superstar. The WWE will usually have one major concession stand set up near the entrance/exit of the arena so that all incoming and outgoing fans must walk past it on their way in/out. For as much merchandise as WWE produces, the amount of items found at a live event could be considered underwhelming when compared to those available via the online store. Like any other retail environment, the arena's concession stand shouldn't be expected to contain every item that is sold online. Whereas the arena used to be a great outlet for a variety of WWE merchandise, it now offers mostly items considered to be the hottest sellers or promoting featured performers such as Roman Reigns, John Cena, and the Bellas. Many WWE fans wanting to make a purchase will find something that suits them, sure, but it would be nice if there was something for everyone, and if some of the cult favourites had a t-shirt or a hat on offer, too.
