It's a lot of Chinese writing and porn gifs. I had to close it immediately because there were about 30 gifs all over my screen.

Apparently it was a holding page, could they just not have bought the domain?

It's ridiculous that they would rather throw out all this product instead of just buying the domain back and serve a simple website. Goes to show how little the brand controls about their business.

Maybe they didn't want to sell?

They seem to enjoy collecting expired domains and advertising on them, that might be the more profitable route that trying to find a new buyer.
