Nintendo Banned WWE Star Cody Rhodes From Using Zelda-Themed Ring Gear

Nintendo once sent Cody Rhodes an official request to stop using wrestling boots styled after The Legend of Zelda.

Rhodes revealed that he is a huge fan of the franchise and even has a Triforce tattoo on his finger. Early in his WWE career, he used ring gear featuring the iconic Zelda symbol.

Nintendo is widely known for aggressively protecting its intellectual property rights. The company frequently files multimillion-dollar lawsuits against pirates and shuts down fan-made projects.

As a reminder, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was recently released on the Nintendo Switch 2.
