Wouldn't this be the figure coinciding with 2K18? Why would it be Jericho? What does Joe coming out in June/july coincide with?

This thread is exactly how rumors are spread on here I like the rumors like this. I consider it a lead in the hunt for future lineups. Sometimes in the past these threads have helped us get answers when MDT decides to chime in. This figure is getting quite high on my wants list but never once seeing this thread did I get excited about it. I never truly freak out with happiness until I'm in my kitchen with the figure in my hands

Oh man...if it is a WCW flashback, I hope he comes with a cloth WCW Monday Jericho t-shirt, and his original list....ARMBAR!

I'm not a huge Jericho fan but depending on the attire I'd probably get that one. I'm more excited for the Samoa Joe figure coming out. Anyone know if they can be pre ordered at GameStop?

So who exactly said it was WCW / 1,004 Holds? To me it looks like Mr Ezekiel Jackson If Ya Nasty is just making a wild assumption. Take what he says with a total grain of salt because he doesn't offer proof. Why would they give GameStop, a store that has the smallest figure display and no stock ever, a figure we've been wanting for a while? Just going by what I saw and was told by the employee, dude. I'm not like people here who would stalk a store and take pictures of everything including driver's licence in the quest of proving something. He could had just said "Chris Jericho" and been done with it. He offered me details that I figure I would share with folks here. I didn't record the conversation because again that's weird. That's not normal human behavior. And why would Gamestop get something like 1004 hold Jericho? I don't know, ask Mattel during the next trade show. Nothing in your original post says what exactly said it was a WCW / 1,004 version. This is what I'm after because a few posts down from yours someone posts a shot from GameStop and it just simply says "Elite Chris Jericho." You said you looked at his screen but did it specifically say anywhere on his screen that it was that exact version? Was it the employee telling you, and if so where did he get the info from? I'm incredibly skeptical because no where in the last few years since I've been collecting again has a store in its description, especially six months before, ever listed its specific attire. It would greatly help if you say exactly what states it's the 1,004 holds version.

I like how some of y'all are jumping on the OP for something he was told. I don't really see the benefit of him lying about this. So let's say the GameStop employee is wrong and it turns out to be a current Jericho elite, oh well nothing to be getting wound up about. I don't see any reason why this figure would never be made I mean it makes sense it's one of the only elite versions of him not to be made yet.

I like how some of y'all are jumping on the OP for something he was told. I don't really see the benefit of him lying about this. Because he is making a strong claim without any real proof. Look at what he said: So this afternoon, I decided to stop at a Gamestop to see if they had anything new WWE figure wise or at least discounted. Looking around and only seeing their exclusive Brock, I headed towards the exit. Before I could leave, one of the employees asked me if I needed help. Asked him if they were any figures in the back. He checked the inventory and saw nothing in stock besides Lesnar. Then he continue looking if could order me something. He explained about order something from a series is totally random. Further looking he told me about the upcoming Samoa Joe exclusive. It arrives in June of this year for $22.99. He also told me that they have another figure arriving in September. Chris Jericho. Man of a 1004 holds.
Dude. I had to look at his screen to see if he wasn't BSing me. Nope. It's happening, people. WCW Chris Jericho. What Jericho's exact attire is, I don't know. But this is a Holy Grail to some here. He specifically says "Man of 1004 holds" and then says "What Jericho's exact attire is, I don't know." People are assuming he was told it's the the "Man of 1,004 Holds" attire and are now people are running with it. This is how rumors and misinformation spreads. And especially on this site, one person makes one factless claim and everyone runs with it as if its gospel. My whole thing is that since its a figure a lot of us want we should wait until there is official confirmation before we get excited because we've been burned many times by jumping to conclusion without proof.

Another example of this is a recent post about a "Kliq boxset" where the poster claimed X-Pac said on his podcast that one is coming out soon. The actual podcast ended up being from last summer and X-Pac actually said something along the lines of "I think I read somewhere they're making a curtain call figure set" and then Scott Hall replied that he hadn't heard anything about it. So "I think I read somewhere" turned into "X-Pac said it's coming" and then that turned into multiple pages of people predicting the attires for the figures lol. This stuff happens all the time.

You know when next time y'all declare this board sucks, know you are part of the problem. I just decided to share with people surprise info I got yesterday. No agenda in mind. Not trying to win brownie points. Got no website or eBay store to pimp. What I'm getting in return is that I'm lying. Which is ok because this sounds too good to be true. But you're trying to go above and beyond like you're a Mythbuster. I just collect WWE action figures. I don't obsess over them. My life doesn't revolve around them. Hell, I don't even post here regularly like some here. We already had a number of things people say weren't true that became true like the WCW elite boxset that got cancelled but still produced and sent to Down Under to sell off. Or surprise figures like Ringmaster Steve Austin or the Bash at the Beach 3 pack that no one knew existed until they hit the shelves. So don't believe me. No sweat off my brow. I know what I was told and saw.

I know what I was told and saw. Lol you're overreacting. Who said they don't believe you? Lol. Someone even posted a picture of a Gamestop list with Jericho listed. I don't think anyone doubts that there's a Gamestop Jericho coming, we just are questioning the validity of your definite claim that it's a "WCW Chris Jericho". You said you looked at the screen and confirmed it. Did it actually say "WCW" in the listing you saw or was it identical to the picture posted on the first page that simply says "Elite Chris Jericho"? We just want to know how you confirmed that it's a flashback WCW Jericho.

I know what I was told and saw. We are not part of the problem in any way. We're trying to ask you for what was said or shown that backs up your claim. We all hope that its true and we all want to believe you, but you have to give us more information. We're just asking you for elaboration and twice now you've skirted past what I've said and just harped on that you're not making it up. Just elaborate truthfully on what was said/shown, please. You've said the following: "kinda big Gamestop news" "Chris Jericho. Man of a 1004 holds." "It's happening, people. WCW Chris Jericho." "But this is a Holy Grail to some here." With those quotes, please tell us what was shown or said to you explicitly that told you that its: 1. A Flashback Jericho 2. WCW era 3. 1,004 Holds attire. If you saw something on the screen, what exactly did it say/show? If you were told something by an employee, what exactly did they say to you? ALL WE'RE ASKING FOR ARE SPECIFICS AND MORE INFORMATION.

We've been asking you for the details since you were the one made the claim and three times now you've avoided answering. I'm done. Meannnnnnn Geneeeeeee do you know who may have the answer?

Its not that people dont believe you, they just dont believe this random gamestop employee has any knowledge of it....and youre making it out to be a confirmation.
We've been told before. Its not official until its announced by bill or ringside.
