WWE changed Bronson Reed’s t-shirt design due to copyright infringement
After Bronson Reed stole the shoes of Roman Reigns, a new t-shirt featuring a “Tribal Thief” logo and Nike sneakers was added to WWE Shop. However, the design was soon pulled, with existing orders canceled, before the shirt was later re-released without the shoes.

While appearing on the Battleground podcast, Reed addressed the t-shirt…
“Well, it is still there. It’s still available, but it’s altered. You can still buy it, but there was some copyright infringement stuff there that they had to remove the shoes, which is fair enough. I get it. But, I personally was hoping that they’ll just put on some generic shoes. You know, that’s the whole the whole thing was I was walking around with people’s shoes around my neck. They just decided to keep it as the Tribal Thief logo. So if I have my way, I’ll make sure that the shirt hopefully can come back out with the shoes on it.”
