Bleacher Creatures branch out to the WWE
By Chris Olds | Beckett Sports Card Monthly Editor
Not long ago, we took a look at a relatively new entrant into the sports world, and now the Bleacher Creatures are branching out.
The plush renditions of MLB, NFL, NBA and NHL stars have a new crop of stars to contend with — the Superstars of World Wrestling Entertainment.
Six stars from the WWE — John Cena, Ryback, Sheamus, C.M. Punk, Kane and Daniel Bryan’s Beard, err, Daniel Bryan — are now available as plush pals from the Plymouth Meeting, Pa.-based company.
The 10-inch toys in Series 1 are $19.99 apiece or $99.99 for all six and can only be found on WWEShop.com.
WWE newcomer and Divas champion A.J. Lee stars in a promo for the toys (above), playing off of her toying with the other stars in the past. Ironically, it’s not her only interaction with plush toys as seen on one of her forthcoming Topps WWE cards.
