Last weekend, a renowned Massachusetts restaurant enjoyed a moment in the limelight on wrestling’s greatest platform when superstar John Cena donned their limited edition sneakers. The proprietor of The Kowloon was even in the audience at WrestleMania 39 in Los Angeles to observe the restaurant’s hand-painted Nike Air Force Ones on Cena’s feet as he fought for the United States Title.
The $500 gold-red-and-black Kowloon shoes, a collaboration between the Route 1 stalwart and Boston artist Sway, were released in February. There were just 100 pairs created. “We came up with the idea as a fun way to raise money for different charities,” Kowloon owner Bobby Wong said in a statement at the time. “The Kowloon sneaker is the first in a series with more series to come. We are working with various local charities and will feature their logo on future sneakers with proceeds going to the charity.”

Nevertheless, Theory got an edge by biting Cena on the ear early in the battle. Cena, on the other hand, used his knowledge and expertise to turn the tables. Cena grabbed down Theory and locked him in STF, causing his opponent to tap out. Cena believed he had won the fight, but the referee was down in the ring and couldn’t see what happened.
