So I got to spend a few hours this chilly Saturday morning playing wwe 2k16 while my 6 month old son was napping.
One of the matches for the 'stone cold mode' has his king of the ring match with Jake. So naturally, being a huge jake fan, I immediately began thinking of the possibility of mattel making a 'comeback' 1996 Jake the Snake. I figured that his attire is unique enough, having that cool vest and he was a little heavier at that point which would warrant a new scan & body mold.
So what do you guys think? Would you be down for a king of the ring Jake? I know there's a ton of attires that people want first...heck, I'm still hoping for a hasbro deco version, but I still think it'd be cool, especially because it was arguably the launching of Austins career.

He could be in HOF 4 maybe. Along with (hopefully) Edge, (hopefully) Lita, and one other person.

Mania 8 Roberts and debut Goldust (with some kind of real hair removeable wig and gold ic title belt) are probably my most wanted repeats now that we have got Davey Boy, Dibiase, Rude, Perfect, Andre and some others.

I'd also like to add that, in addition to his cool attire from that era (was it technically new generation?) I just really admired him as a wrestler. He was older, out of shape and dealing with his demons, but he never gave up. The fact that he took such a beating from vader, still managed to win and went on to face Austin in the final was just cool to see. You can't help but root for him because he was beyond being an underdog.
