This piece is part of a wave of licensed WWE merchandise-adjacent coinage that proliferated through Pacific island issuing authorities in the 2010s and 2020s, where nominal face values on collector tokens bear no relationship to any circulating monetary system. Solomon Islands has been a particularly active vehicle for this type of issue, with its currency authority lending legitimacy to items produced almost entirely for the novelty collectibles market.
Drew McIntyre won the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 36 in April 2020 — an event held in an empty arena due to COVID-19 lockdowns.
