They always have given her a job clearly to have a working relationship to be able to ensure they can continue to market Ultimate Warrior. I wonder if this will have any impact when it’s time to renew his Legends deal.

If they lose Warrior and Macho Man then the line is in serious trouble.

What's the most iconic attire of warrior not done in figure form ? WCW debut and Summerslam 1989 are probably the two biggest. |

Losing Macho sucks and if Warrior is no longer available either, that would be a huge blow.
But, to play devils advocate those (potential) departures may open the door for Mattel to request some long overdue talent. We've already hears that the Headbangers and Dudleyz might be available, and who knows who else's name might pop up.
With Steiner figures hopefully ramping up soon as well, we may be in for some nice additions the next year or two until Macho (and Warrior if he's actually cut now) become available again.

Id be ok with it. I'd much rather turn focus to new signees and guys who don't usually get focus (i.e. RVD, Angle, Guerrero, etc...)

We don't know any details about Warrior's Legends deal. It could have been recently renewed for 5+ years or have years remaining before it is up for renewal.
Seems a little premature to start worrying about it (although the thought did cross my mind when I read she was released yesterday).
We don't know her or her contributions to the company so it's a little unfair to say she only had a job to keep the contract (that they already had).
If she was as useless as the IWC has already decided she was, I would think that she would just be grateful that they took care of her as long as they did. If it was me, I wouldn't be bitter and I would be even more eager to resign the deal to keep the cash flowing.
That's me though - really depends on how they treated her. If they sent her a trash bag with her things, then yeah, maybe we are in trouble when his Legends deal is up.

What's the most iconic attire of warrior not done in figure form ? Theyve covered almost everything from his original 1987-1991 run other than what he wore when squashing jobbers. I would say one of the more glaring omissions is his brown camo attire from Fall Brawl 1998. |

I wonder if this will have any impact when it’s time to renew his Legends deal. I’m pretty sure this was all Endeavor and not just on WWE or Vince McMahon. Not sure why she would get all up in her feelings about being released when WWE was the ones who basically just gave her a job for the past 9-10 years. With that said, I’m sure she would be more greatful to wwe then getting mad and saying “that’s it, they’re not making another mattel ultimate Warrior figure every again.” Likely that’s the last thing on her mind. |

What's the most iconic attire of warrior not done in figure form ? The green attire from the promo shots - sure it was released as a basic, but we never got an elite (or an UE, but I think an elite would suffice). And the basic doesn't have the correct hair. WM6 and WM7 were both taken care of (WM6 hair wasnt accurate tho and WM7's hair could have been better), but that green attire from the promo shot was all over merchandise back then and even today. That image is the first thing that pops into my head. |

Off the top of my head
Definitely need some more 96 attires with the blonder hair.
The green attire from the WM6 promos
A few from 92
I’m sure there’s more. Feels like there’s endless amount of warriors they could do.

Seems a little premature to start worrying about it (although the thought did cross my mind when I read she was released yesterday). This right here. If there are potentially 2-5 years left on his current deal (I know we do not know but guessing), If there is X time left, provided it is 2 or more years, they they should start planning a blitz to get all the needs remaining versions out as possible. |

To add to that, time heals all wounds (for the most part). If she is bitter/mad now, then she might be in a better mindset by the time his deal is up (assuming she never sold off his rights to WWE). |

Like I said elsewhere, it would be pretty funny. Why is it funny to you that many members on this forum would have an icon taken away from them and how is that adding to the forums? |
