For everyone that uses a ring, whether for play or display, which one do you use and why? Jakks, Mattel, WCT, homebrew?
I'm currently using the Main Event Ring which I modified slightly by combining two halves of two different rings and raising the posts slightly so it's not so short. I also placed a foam sheet between the plastic base and the ring mat to muffle the sound and better protect the figures so two hunks of plastic aren't being slammed together.

I'm using the main event ring, I love the size of it compared to the real / elite scale rings. I also perfer the turnbuckle pads being plastic as it's easier to do things like the Randy Orton corner taunt.

NXT Authentic Scale Ring. Love it with the NXT barricades and slammy Entrance playset. Looks just like full sail.

My question is how (if there’s any interest) can they possibly make the main event rings customizable? I’d love the idea of getting colored ring ropes and skirts of old ppvs like the WCT rings tried I really hope they can try something like that

I always used the Jakks Hardcore Ring, it was my first ring ever and I still have the original base and have refurbished it quite a few times, I always wanted a Scale ring though and was so happy when WCT released the original ASR, sadly I got the early one with the loose ropes and all, Ringside's replacements helped a lot though, but eventually I switched back to the Hardcore Ring
Then I got the newest Mattel Raw Main Event Scale Ring, man I love the thing, the rope height is pretty much a non issue when having it in hand and using it, I'm actually getting ready to do a Royal Rumble with it on this rainy day off

Wicked Cool Toys with the Jakks RSR turnbuckle pads. If anyone else is like me and thinks the ASR is too big, put the Jakks pads on it. It'll reduce the space inside the ring and give more room on the apron. I'd love to see some pics of your ring, kgchampion. |

Jakks Hardcore Ring with all the fixing; Raw Is War cloth apron, black realistic turnbuckles, and red ring ropes. Got lucky and found a the nWo cage (black cage). Best ring for small spaces. Also have an ASR, however it takes a lot of room and time to put together/break apart.

I have the Mattel ESR with Nitro skirt and mat and plain black turnbuckle pads. I currently display all nWo figures in there. Also have the Mattel Raw ring. They had it without Goldberg at TRU for around $22 prior to them liquidating so couldn’t really pass up that deal. I display figures from RA through The New Era in there since I don’t collect much after Attitude. I am thinking of getting a WCT ASR and nWo skirt and mat and black posts, pads, and ropes and display WCW Nitro Era figs in the Nitro Ring and nWo in the nWo ring.

Wicked cool toys ASR. I have it set up as a late 80s's early 90's ring at the moment but I have the modern set up for it too. I wish wicked cool toys would come out with a 93 era raw ring skirt

I'm still using my ASR I got at a yard sale for $25. Sure, it's the Raw Edition, but I've customized it to my liking with red and black turnbuckles from the old Jakks Ring gear sets and some custom Red and Black ropes I made for the thing. Mine came with loose ropes, so I even made new white ropes. I eventually want to get more parts, such as the black posts and stairs from the modern cage set and the black canvas from the nxt set.
Maybe a new skirt or two.

I use the WCT. It’s way too big but it’s still my best option. I won’t be buying the ME ring because the lack of being able to customizing it. I’m just not going to buy multiple rings to have different versions of the same thing.

I use the old Jakks hell in a cell ring, the closest thing to a true 18x18 ring that mattel will never make :/
I used cloth for the mat/apron, used it for over a decade, ASR and RSR are too big in my opinion

I use Jakks scale ring. I've combined both rings. I use the Wrestlemania 1 apron and ring with the Wrestlemania 2 steps and turnbuckles.
On top of that I have the Attitude era turnbuckles, when I add all three and it just goes with ever era of wrestlers.
