According to TMZ.com, ahead of WrestleMania 34 in two weeks, WWE is suing bootleggers who are selling unauthorised WWE merchandise.
The report adds WWE has filed legal docs in Louisiana, and is taking legal action against unauthorised merchandise slingers attempting to cash-in on WrestleMania 34 taking place at The Mercedes-Benz Superdome.

WWE is not only worried about the bootleggers selling fake merchandise, but are reportedly also concerned with the flammability level of the ink used to print the T-shirts and the safety of the design of other goods.
WWE taking legal action against such bootleggers is not uncommon, as the company has done this in previous years to prevent the unauthorised distribution and selling of merchandise being branded as official WWE gear.
