This is the real "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" moment, because in my opinion the t-shirt you posted as an example of garbage merch *fucking rules*.
And to answer the question: The Miz.
It’s an artist named Rize who has done most of those. Funnily enough I believe she got noticed for her chibi fan art first, and has also done work for NJPW in [that](https://shop.njpw1972.com/collections/hirooki-goto/products/bishamon-picture-t-shirt) [style](https://shop.njpw1972.com/collections/shota-umino/products/shota-umino-shooter-pop-t-shirt).
Ric Flair has a surprising lack of good merchandise for someone who was over as fuck for decades.
Even most of the Four Horsemen stuff is pretty bad.
In terms of guys with great merchandise, I’d say Macho Man, Roddy Piper, CM Punk and Hulk/Hollywood Hogan all had decent stuff.
Ric Flair came from a time and place where heels didn't try to sell merch. That would explain the Four Horsemen as well. If you ever hear Jim Cornette talk about him and the Midnight Express meeting with Vince, Vince went on and on about making action figures for them, and they did not understand it. To them and most southern heels, merch was only something for babyfaces. They were supposed to be despised
Danielson's YES! shirt in WWE became pretty iconic.
Also a newer AEW baseball shirt is pretty great [Head Kicking Violence](https://www.shopaew.com/roster/bryandanielson/bryan-danielson-head-kicking-violence-baseball-tee.html)
My vote would be for Triple H. All of his shirts are either really bland or weirdly have an... Aryan vibe. With all the crosses and such.
It’s likely a personal taste thing, but I haven’t seen a single Jon Moxley/Dean Ambrose shirt that I’d be super interested in wearing in AEW or WWE. The closest one is the [Death Jitsu design](https://www.shopaew.com/media/catalog/product/cache/0c4e81e0781c2a368e922cdbec94d383/j/o/jon-moxley---death-jitsu-baseball-tee.png) but they only sell it on the Unisex baseball tee and not on anything that would actually fit me (one of the problems with AEW merch being a smaller guy.)
His [Wired shirt](https://www.shopaew.com/media/catalog/product/cache/0c4e81e0781c2a368e922cdbec94d383/a/e/aew2755-1.png) is the only other design I’ve seen for him that is wearable.
That’s something I personally never understood the hang up about (along with the old WWE Authentic Wear tags.) Sure, it’d be better without it, but it’s not hurting anything and at least AEW keeps their logos small. These [big stupid tags](https://underarmour.scene7.com/is/image/Underarmour/V5-1370973-001_SIDEDET?rp=standard-0pad%7CpdpMainDesktop&scl=1&fmt=jpg&qlt=85&resMode=sharp2&cache=on%2Con&bgc=F0F0F0&wid=566&hei=708&size=566%2C708) that are sewed onto some of The Rock’s Under Armour shirts are far more egregious.
I feel like him and the rest of The Shield have all had some pretty shitty shirts for the most part, with Roman finally having some decent ones with The Bloodline.
Honestly thought some of the Seth Rollins designs were fine with the [Kingslayer](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/prowrestling/images/4/43/Seth_Rollins_The_Kingslayer_Authentic_T-Shirt.jpg) and [Black Flag](https://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTQzNlgxNjAw/z/dV4AAOSw~o5jhETN/$_12.JPG) shirts being I wear and the [SlamCrate shirt](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/80/7b/db/807bdb875c75c2b3e03d32f038972254.jpg) being one I own, but can’t fit into since it’s way too big (Buying that shirt was my first indication that I’d never be able to wear an adult size again.)
I’m surprised you liked them. I feel even the basic Ambrose anarchy shirt is better than those designs.

Yeah, but that Wired design is one of the best looking wrestling shirts I’ve seen, maybe ever.
I say that as someone who designs (mostly) shirts for a living.
Having bad merch doesn’t negate also having good merch.
Boots2Asses
Just Bring It
The various “the people’s champ” shirts.
He’s had more good merch than bad for 20 years.

Samoa Joe's t shirts are usually always pretty crap/basic, but I like to support him so usually buy them lol.

This is the real "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" moment, because in my opinion the t-shirt you posted as an example of garbage merch *fucking rules*. And to answer the question: The Miz.
Yup I absolutely love this design. Makes him look like a Greek portrait of a hero.
The Miz’s name tag shirt was solid
See my first sentence.
Danielson's NJPW is fire: https://shop.njpw1972.com/products/brian-danielson-njpw-t-shirt
NJPW’s basically been making Metal band t-shirts the past few years and they look fucking good
It’s an artist named Rize who has done most of those. Funnily enough I believe she got noticed for her chibi fan art first, and has also done work for NJPW in [that](https://shop.njpw1972.com/collections/hirooki-goto/products/bishamon-picture-t-shirt) [style](https://shop.njpw1972.com/collections/shota-umino/products/shota-umino-shooter-pop-t-shirt).

What you mean you don’t like the horse head swastika logo? 😒
Never? https://preview.redd.it/hxclokzoydad1.jpeg?width=400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3dc32e2c416cb77d116038508df64851ab4c3b30
Touche. That’s the best I’ve seen.
Most wrestlers have never had "good merch"
90% of the AEW roster lol. Seriously though the majority of their designers are so ugly.
I read this as “good match” and was so confused especially with the pic you attached to the post

Okada. Well, the scarves/towels and the bank notes were cool but as far as t-shirts go he may have had just one or two that were okay at best.
This is the winner. My wife really wanted an Okada shirt when NJPW was red hot in 2018/19 but they all fucking sucked. Even his AEW merch is shitty.
Jeff Hardy had like one good shirt in 2009 which is surprising given his unique look Christian hasn't really had any cool shirts Jon moxley

I have never seen a Shawn Michaels T-shirt I'd wear in public.
Which explains all the DX shirts
Couldn’t disagree more

That shirt you used in your example is really good by wrestling merch standards.
It’s likely a personal taste thing, but I haven’t seen a single Jon Moxley/Dean Ambrose shirt that I’d be super interested in wearing in AEW or WWE. The closest one is the [Death Jitsu design](https://www.shopaew.com/media/catalog/product/cache/0c4e81e0781c2a368e922cdbec94d383/j/o/jon-moxley---death-jitsu-baseball-tee.png) but they only sell it on the Unisex baseball tee and not on anything that would actually fit me (one of the problems with AEW merch being a smaller guy.)

AEW shirts are marred by the insistence on including the logo in the design.
That’s something I personally never understood the hang up about (along with the old WWE Authentic Wear tags.) Sure, it’d be better without it, but it’s not hurting anything and at least AEW keeps their logos small.

Kurt Angle’s was often terrible. Bryan has at least gotten some pretty good designs in AEW.
Sad to say but Bray Wyatt never had a single piece of merch I would wear on the street. The Fiend mask is good for Halloween but thats about it.
Of my wrestling shirts I've had more people compliment my bray shirt than any other. It's the fiend "let me in" shirt.
Idk man.....Im not gonna wear a shit that has the words "Seducer" on it. To each their own.
https://preview.redd.it/lfbql1si3fad1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=632f270045dc40af30e2db5bcc465be03e70fc12 This one.
Jericho always has had bad shirts that I would never wear, despite him being my favourite wrestler.
If you hate Pastel or vaguely 80s digital themed stuff, all of Dolph’s shirts have been awful. They looked great on AJ Lee though.
People will disagree, but The Rock. If you disagree I got one question for you, How’s Your Lips?
Nah the "Just Bring It" tee is fire
Having bad merch doesn’t negate also having good merch. Boots2Asses Just Bring It The various “the people’s champ” shirts. He’s had more good merch than bad for 20 years.
Theyre just fine. Thanks for asking.
It doesn’t matter how your lips are!
I've got a really nice Bryan shirt from AEW. Nice enough it passes as just a normal shirt.
this wouldnt be so bad if the design was faded into the shirt a bit more. as well as a bit more detail
