True but in 20 years we're going to be begging Jakks for a flashback. Jakks isn't gonna get the license back lol. That's almost impossible. That's not completely true. They could easily get the license back when Mattel comes close to theirs running out. They're already making wwe stuff again.

They're already making wwe stuff again. They'll lose a lot of money if Jakks regains the licence. WWE my not realize that now, but a HUGE amount of collectors, myself included will stop collecting if Jakks starts making figures again, and they'll start losing money. Not even kids will buy Jakks. My cousins who are little kids HATE Jakks figures and they refuse to play with their Jakks figs.

It would be a start from scratch type of deal, and take into account how many people were done when Mattel got the licence that now collect again. It doesn't matter who makes them. As technology advances collectors will always be there.

Once a collector always a collector. Exactly. They wouldn't dust off some RA molds and sign a new contract. That's just stupid business.

That's just stupid business. I hope you're right. Because I will gladly buy from any company if they produce quality figures.

They're already making wwe stuff again. Jakks will never be releasing WWE's main line again. Their stock price is half of what it was in 2010. WWE's going to be produced by Mattel or Hasbro most likely.

It's still 3 years away.

I really think Natalya is on the outs. They might let her win the title and retire with it, but there is nothing left for her to do. She never lived up to her hype in my opinion, and like AJ Lee pointed out, got by this whole time by being a Hart. Sure she was better than 90 prcent of the roster most of the time but is that really an accomplishment with stinkers like Rosa, Eva, Summer, Tamina and Cameron making you look better by comparison? I can also see them releasing Eva Marie. She can't work at all. Smh if you legitimately think they are gonna get rid of Eva I hate her as much as the next guy, but they clearly have a ton invested in her

Lillian is still saying she absolutely hasn't been released and will be back to Raw on Monday.
Also, there is some grumbling that Sandow asked for his release.

If jakks can keep there figures cost down and get better distribution to retail stores i am all for them getting the license back. I am getting really sick of mattels crap, and i am sick of hunting all the time and coming up empty.

It doesn't matter who makes them. As technology advances collectors will always be there. Yep. People would hold out for a while, but eventually everyone would get with the program. Once a collector always a collector. I remember how many people here said they would never buy Mattel figures when it was announced they had the license. I don't want Jakks to get the license again, but stranger things have happened. Jakks will never be releasing WWE's main line again. Their stock price is half of what it was in 2010. WWE's going to be produced by Mattel or Hasbro most likely. If jakks can keep there figures cost down and get better distribution to retail stores i am all for them getting the license back. I am getting really sick of mattels crap, and i am sick of hunting all the time and coming up empty. Mattel's figures are definitely better, but their distribution is all out of whack. I'm very thankful for Amazon. Their figures might come in and out of stock, but at least they don't skip waves like retail. And back on topic, I wonder who is gonna get let go next week. I know Darren Young just started a new storyline, but good lord is it terrible. Ryback, Swagger and Slater all seem to be MIA.

Mattel don't seem to be doing too badly, plenty of people checked out after the CS line ended (which is why Mattel's legends line ended up going south), but they were replaced by new collectors.

I thought Sandow said on Twitter like, a week before his release that he "would never leave" and was "proud to work at WWE"?

I can't imagine sandow being OK with them firing him i mean who wants to get fired from a job they love I think by saying it was mutual it allows both wwe and sandow to try to save face Kinda like how if a couple breaks up and they decide to tell everybody "we" broke up when in reality one of them broke up with the other one but by saying "we" it allows both people to still look good
