The WWE and the National Hockey League are teaming up to release a new wave of commemorative championship titles, it has been claimed.
Wrestle Votes reports that the new championships will likely be available through Fanatics sometime in 2024. This new deal comes hot off the heels of WWE’s massively successful partnership with the NFL to release high-quality championships for teams. All teams in the league have had titles created, with the championship for the Jacksonville Jaguars (as owned by AEW President Tony Khan) proving to be especially popular.
These sports-themed championships are a new concept, but WWE has awarded their own titles to athletes in the past. Champion athletes have been receiving a replica WWE Championship for years. In February of this year, the Kansas City Chiefs were gifted a championship following their Super Bowl victory over the Philadelphia Eagles.
WWE’s Legacy Championships
It’s not just the NFL and the NHL that have custom championships created by WWE. Over the years, several Superstars and legends of the past have had Legacy Championships to celebrate their respective accolades. These titles typically feature the plates of a championship significant to the wrestler in question, with a custom strap featuring a distinct color scheme and design. Earlier this month, WWE released new Legacy Championships celebrating the longest reigning tag-team champions in WWE history The Usos.
Liv Morgan was recently on hand to gift a Green Bay Packers Championship to Packers Running Back Aaron Jones at a recent game. Click here to learn more.
