Jakks previously captured his likeness so well though! Maybe vince will interrupt his induction and re-fire him

I'm really excited about this one as I thought Jarrett was never going to be an option. Hopefully Mattel will get around to him and go with the Attitude Era version first since it works for WCW and early TNA and New Generation era next.

I'd personally rather buy another basic Cena. This man joins a growing list of people who have no place in the hall of fame as hokey as the WWE'S Hall of Fame is (in terms of how you qualify) please tell me what he did to earn a spot?! I'll give you MY reasoning as to why he's getting in. I have my own little criteria when it comes to these things. I look at it this way: Koko B. Ware is in, he never held any gold (to my knowledge). Jarrett did have a few title runs with the IC and Tag belts, so he should be in. Its not all about belts, I know. This is just my little reasoning method that I use. I know where you're coming from but for me the character of the man or woman also needs to be taken into account when it comes to handing out any kind of prestige. For my beliefs for my morals he has no place in the HOF neither does koko but that's a whole other subject of conversation ha I know I'm not about to sacrifice my morals for a action figure, Same reason The Ultimate Warrior will never be welcome in my collection.

Double J from the first WWF run is the only one worth making.

Tna has lasted longer than WCW did and more than twice as long as ECW did. If you don’t want a figure that’s fine but to wiestionhe accomplishments is ridiculous.

I agree with this so much. Double j was a midcard talent his entire career at best, regardless of any tv time / championships he held He was a upper mid card guy his entire career, but I still think he should be in the HoF. Plenty of lower guys there. I don't care for anything he did after the country gimmick, but those couple years or so left a lasting memory for me. I thought he was a great IC level heel in the mid 90's. I liked the gimmick and look and promos. That's J-E-Double F-J-A-Double R-E Double T! Since WWE's HOF is really a Hall Of Just About Everyone, sure he deserves to be inducted. But that's not what we were talking about. We were responding to a guy who said that JJ deserves to get in before Vader, which is just insane.

With Jeff Jarrett going into the Hall.
And if WWE and Mattel decide to make a figure of him what im curious would you want more
New Generation Jeff Jarrett
Early Attitude Era
Short Haired Attitude Look
Wcw Four Horsemen
WCW World champion Attire
Myself I would like his Short Haired Attitude look as it fits in with the attitude era guys as only a few guys have been made to hold that style of belt. Your thoughts
No poll this time

None for me, I never could get into the guy. But good for him and those who want him. Maybe I'd get one to slap a Bullet Club shirt on 🤣

Never was a fan of any Jarrett's characters but if they made that dumb white attire with the light up JJ, then I will likely buy it. Probably the only Jarrett I would buy unless Mattel has the balls to make Jarrett as Blue Blazer.

He wasn’t that bad in WWE. I’d say he was overrated in WCW by Russo and went a bit power mad in TNA. Being a wrestler/booker is like wearing the One Ring where the power corrupts. But I liked his attires in WWE and his character. When it comes to figures, if they look good, I don’t care if they sucked............get in my collection! I'm going to defend Jarretts run in TNA. Was he booked to go over a lot? Yes. But it made sense. He owned the company. Wrestlers who were big names were brought in on short term deals so it made sense for them to challenge for the world title to bring it up but not win it since a short title reign would be ridiculous. He out joe over. He put Styles over. He put a lot over When you own the company you want it to succeed. You're always going to be in the company. Guys like Hall shamrock Nash and others could leave at any time due to the way their contracts were structured. So knowing you neee some consistency it made sense to give himself he title. I understand all that, but I wasn’t referring to his win/loss record. What I meant was that a lot of people got sick of seeing him constantly shown as a big deal at the top of the card, whether he won or not and that’s likely why they thought he ‘sucked’. Same thing happened with Hogan, Cena and Reigns. It must have happened with Sammartino and Backlund to a certain extent too. Surely there was some fans who got sick of them being the champ after a few years! Back to potential figures - in a twist, rather than release a light up 100 dollars/pounds ring with Jarrett, since the New Generation ring didn’t have lights, for that high pricepoint, they could make the figure light up with that white entrance outfit with the red light jacket and hat!

I wish they could just make HOF sets based on who is being inducted that year, although i know thats not the case, cause i would really like a HOF Ivory and Jacqueline too. Would love an old school pat Patterson with the first IC belt. Celebrity wing aside though, but Mr T would be a great get
