Pop culture conventions in New York always bring out the weirdest WWE merchandise.
It seems like just yesterday the sports entertainment company waded into the zombie market with Mattel at New York Toy Fair. Now, IGN breaks the news of a big splash at this year’s New York Comic-Con...
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles dressed up as your favorite WWE Superstars!

What? Don’t tell me you haven’t always wondered who Leo, Raph, Don and Mikey’s favorite wrestlers are?
Thanks to Playmates Toys, who’ve long held the TMNT license - now you know. And beginning next month, you’ll be able to purchase the Ninja Superstars figures, exclusively at Wal-Mart.
Their choices make sense, for the most part. Of course team leader and kind-of-a-jerk-about-it Leonardo is a John Cena guy. Life of the party Michaelangelo would probably give you a great Randy “Macho Man” Savage impersonation.
I guess the short-tempered Raphael makes sense for Sting, as long as we confine the Hall of Famer’s career to his vigilante days. I’d have gone with someone like Roddy Piper or maybe Bobby Heenan for smart guy Donatello, but you’ve got to get Undertaker in there somewhere.
Head over to IGN to see photos of each of the four figures in their packaging, and let us know what you think of the mash-up in the comments below!
