The creation of the HBK line starring forwards Carl Hagelin, Nick Bonino, and Phil Kessel connected the Pittsburgh Penguins to WWE fans who love wrestling legend Shawn Michaels, AKA the Heartbreak Kid. Michaels joined in on the fun, attending Game 5 against the Tampa Bay Lightning, and now the WWE is joining in too.
Below is a message from Triple H (Paul Michael Levesque who is an Executive VP at the WWE as well as a wrestler) about sending a custom WWE World Heavyweight Championship belt to the Penguins.

This custom belt is pretty awesome and it seems like the perfect way to wrap up the HBK storyline from 2015-16.
