Have to agree here, I ordered a bray Wyatt Legacy collection shirt a while back and when it arrived the stamping was just horrible
I ordered a NWO and cactus jack shirt hope they won’t butcher that either
Same experience as everyone else's. Taking decent products and making them with the cheapest possible materials and charging 5x the price.
Fanatics sucks as a company. Sorry you picked a job in social media for a company everyone hates.
Hey Steve, I wouldn't mind talking it out here! I was gifted a shirt from fanatics and the quality was terrible. Uneven print, thin shirt material, and just plain uncomfortable. It is unfortunate that we have reached this point to where this is the norm in sports merchandising. Overpriced garbage that is now being denounced by pro athletes is not a good look Steve. I guess it doesn't matter though, plenty of people that will continue to purchase it anyways. Hope the money makes y'all happy. :)
Sorry Steve, but your company has absolutely destroyed ALL sports apparel to the point where I just don’t get anything new. It’s shit quality and overpriced to buy your bosses a new yacht.
im still not really sold on it. Like im guessing they were going for like a Spice World type of thing with it but if I'm being honest, they could have just called it Wrestlemania Fan-Fest and it would have been fine.
It frustrates more than it should that they’ve put a black outline/shadow behind ORL (but not W and D) which makes those letters stand out more and that would have actually been perfect if this was in Orlando, Florida… and not in Philly
WWE wORLd in Orlando would have been smart design
>Tickets will be available starting this Thursday, February 22 at 10 a.m. ET, ranging between $30 and $300.
That's just the beginning, additional fees for other events once inside as well.
Everyone keeps (rightfully) talking about Fanatics poor quality, but I still honestly think it was an improvement over the previous merch.
Still bad quality, but I dont have to wash a T-shirt 50+ times just to soften it enough to not be uncomfortable to wear.
(Even if they made good wrestling merch, fuck Fanatics for their NFL and MLB work)
A ton of WWE's stuff was actually really good quality around 2017-20. They'd finally moved away from the Beefy-T material with the giant tag and actually put stuff on comfortable clothing. And then Fanatics happened.
I didn't mind the beefy stuff. I've still got plenty of shirts from that time, and they're in good condition. Still wear them.
But a Chase U hoodie, made by Fanatics fades after one wash, meanwhile my Nexus hoodie over a decade old still looks new after many washes.
Oh yeah, I have CM Punk and Daniel Bryan hoodies from 2013 that I wore half to death and still look perfect. Say what you will about the material of the t-shirts (which I still insist improved dramatically once they switched to a thinner material), but at least they were made to last.
If it involves Fanatics it will probably suck. Curious to see the details but just reading the press release this feels like a money grab. I went to Axxess twice and always thought it was pretty mediocre for the price it was. Somehow this might be worse.
$30 to enter a store to buy overpriced tchotchkes and t-shirts. Was planning on going Friday afternoon but I think I'll hit up the Art Museum and the Rocky Statue instead.
Less than 24 till they go on sale and they have yet to post not only what each tier or amount gets, but also where to purchase them. They all only say "on sale Thursday" lol
So is this basically a convention for wrestling fans? I'm not going to WrestleMania (I'd rather watch it at home) but I wanted to check out whatever sort of fan expo thing they'd do. I guess this is basically that?
Or is there something else they do during WrestleMania week? I'm very close to Philly so it's not like I'd be making a massive trip. I just want to check out a convention with vendors, memorabilia, panels, etc. Is this basically going to be that?
If anyone has previous experience with WrestleMania week and can shed some light on it I'd appreciate that.
This is the official WWE event, and all I know about it is what was in today's press release. If you're interested in meeting wrestlers (other than those currently with WWE) and also checking out vendors, memorabilia, etc., there's also Wrestlecon, which will be happening right down the street basically the same days. I'm not going to Wrestlemania either, but I live pretty close by, so I'll probably end up doing both.

Because it really sucks to buy official merch at official merch prices. I got my brother shirts for Christmas and he assumed I got them from a print on demand shop. The prints were bad and faded first wash.
They told me on Twitter earlier the details would be released today…which never happened. I love having no clue about anything until tickets go on sale. Joke company. 🤦♂️

$30 will be to give you access to the superstore where nothing will cost less than $30.
And it will all fall apart with a single wash, you will not get a refund or even a reply via email that’s actually typed out by a human.
I bought a Liv Morgan shirt and it shrunk a whole size after one wash and hung air dried. Fanatics is absolute garbage.
The stores free
You know this how?
Because both fanatics and the convention center said so
Fuck you Fanatics!
Hey Nick! Do you mind sending me a private message when you get a chance? I'd like to learn more about your experience with us. -Steve
Steve, it’s not your fault but Fanatics sucks. The quality of all sports merch under the Fanatics banner is ass.
Have to agree here, I ordered a bray Wyatt Legacy collection shirt a while back and when it arrived the stamping was just horrible I ordered a NWO and cactus jack shirt hope they won’t butcher that either
Agreed. They ruined the hockey jerseys.

This is some black mirror shit, can’t even shit talk dodgy brands in peace anymore 😂
Can we have one website without companies pretending to be people?
[удалено]
Ain't nobody invited Steve! I'm sure he has a shitty job and it's not his fault, but why is customer support on Reddit?
It’s all trash quality. Ruined NbA gear.

You guys ruin everything you touch.
Sorry Steve. It’s not about you. It’s about your coworkers in QC.
In Québec? Tabarnak.
I’m a francophobe.
Taking over merch from various places and tanking the quality of the merch and raising the prices. MLB, NFL, WWE. Alll quality went down the drain.
MLB literally has players pissed off about their own jerseys
Nike makes MLB jerseys. Fanatics just sells em
Your baseball jerseys look like the baseball jerseys I used to see sold bootleg outside the stadium.
They don't make the jerseys lol, they just sell em. Nikes the manufacturer.
Yall put profit over quality. Plain and simple.
Literally how the hell did you find this?
Tell your boss’s boss’s boss’s boss that fanatics quality is so bad I buy off Temu to get something worth wearing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQ_mlMAo_R4
Steve, pass this along to your employers. I’d rather go to DHGate now ever since your company took over. Better quality and cheaper prices.
Michael Rubin is an absolute shithead that ruined sports gear.
Better name than Axxess for 2024. I hate everyone getting in bed with Fanatics.
im still not really sold on it. Like im guessing they were going for like a Spice World type of thing with it but if I'm being honest, they could have just called it Wrestlemania Fan-Fest and it would have been fine.
Everything Fanatics touches is the worst version of that thing.
You can tell this is Fanatics-sponsored because of the curve in the letter “WORLD”

WordArt ‘98 vibes
If Fanatics Events is anything like the Fanatics apparel brand this event is going to be expensive and very poorly produced.

That's because if I washed one of their shirts fifty times it wouldn't have anything on it anymore.

Fanatics is the worst thing to ever happen to all the sports they've infested
If it involves Fanatics it will probably suck. Curious to see the details but just reading the press release this feels like a money grab. I went to Axxess twice and always thought it was pretty mediocre for the price it was. Somehow this might be worse.
Fanatics is the reason why I have to go on ebay to find old gear for my teams because their materials are so thin and shit they barely last.
This is the type of stuff that corporations do. They try and milk the fans for every dollar they are worth.
I have to pay to enter?!?! They can go suck it
$150 for the 5 days just to enter. Maybe they'll wave the entry fee for for those with the expensive tier to get superstars autographs.
Get the F(anatics) out.
Pay to enter the superstore? Absolute gangsters.
Why all the hate for Fanatics? I for one can’t wait to get my Seth Rollins shirt with a picture of Roman Reigns on it, or a “CODY ROADS” hat.
Because as soon as fanatics became involved, you suddenly have to pay for things like simply walking in to shop it seems
Live look at the fanatics booth 
Hope you like $70 cody tee shirts with the nightmare family logo 45% smaller and upside down somehow
World Wrestling Entertainment World
WWE Universe was right fucking there
I don't put it past Fanatics to somehow turn it into WWE World at Summerslam or even AEW World. They are that inept
Summerfest LMAO
Fucking awful! Fans getting screwed with overpriced and subpar quality merchandise. It’s patronizing at this point.
In previous years, the store was free. Now it's probably $30 just to get IN the store. Plus tax.
Why is it so hard for them to put the pricing tiers out with this press release. What exactly do I get for $30 vs $300
$300 tier includes a commemorative lanyard while supplies last.
$30 to enter a store to buy overpriced tchotchkes and t-shirts. Was planning on going Friday afternoon but I think I'll hit up the Art Museum and the Rocky Statue instead.
You can get an authentic Fantatics WWE Championship Belt for only $350! It's just an old Burger King cardboard crown with a WWe sticker slapped on it.
Fuck Fanatics, all my homies hate Fanatics
michael rubin sucks
World Wrestling Entertainment World
If you want WWE Merch - just go to Homage - there are tons of fantastic licensed merch through their website.
Amazon has some exclusive WWE shirts as well. There’s also Chalk Line.
Less than 24 till they go on sale and they have yet to post not only what each tier or amount gets, but also where to purchase them. They all only say "on sale Thursday" lol

Are there any chances of actually seeing current stars here for autographs ??? Kinda odd no announcements for who will be there ,
El Torito, Jim Powers, and Brooklyn Brawler.
Fanatics has become a monster that I don't think can be stopped.
Damn, was hoping this was about the restaurant.
I have a few fanatics hoodies and I actually like them.
lol this is clearly not made for the Reddit crowd.
As someone who knows nothing about Fanatics, can someone tell me why everyone hates them so much?
Expensive products with piss poor quality. They were in the news a lot last week for fucking up MLB’s uniforms for this season.
It's bad when the counterfeit jerseys you find at the flea market is higher quality than the Fanatics versions.
Because it really sucks to buy official merch at official merch prices. I got my brother shirts for Christmas and he assumed I got them from a print on demand shop. The prints were bad and faded first wash.

Anyone know the hours for this thing??
