What WWE's Merchandise Team Have Rumoured To Have Been Told About CM Punk & The Rock

WWE's merchandise team are obviously hard at work producing many, MANY different variations for each superstar especially key names. Key names like CM Punk & The Rock.

Within the last week however, two big messages have come surrounding both men.

Firstly, ALL future merchandise featuring CM Punk was said to either "be turned into Randy Orton" style collectables or not to feature him at all in any way. WWE have already removed him from introductions to TV shows as well as WWE Network promos. Seemingly, WWE and CM Punk aren't exactly on the same team at the minute.

Secondly, The Rock is another name the merchandise team have been told not to "majorly feature". Rumoured, appearing in "group shots" is absolutely fine but single pieces of merchandising are not allowed. This is due to The Rock not working Wrestlemania 30 and were also reportedly told that The Rock "would not return to WWE until 2015" indicating the next time we may see "The Great One" will be at Wrestlemania 31.
