I don't think that Triple H and Vince will retire the WWE Championship for a title that has been around since 2016. Why in the hell is their an Undisputed Champion while their is a World Heavyweight Championship on Raw. You say that, but they dropped the World Tag Team championship in favour of the WWE Tag Team championship back in 2010. A title with a lineage dating back to 1971, dropped in favour of a title established 31 years later in 2002. That being said, I doubt they'll drop the WWE championship in favour of the Universal championship. But there is definitely precedent. Let’s be real here, Vince has never respected tag teams. A tag team could become more over than The Rock and he wouldn’t be able to capitalize because he’s been crapting on tag teams his entire life

Lesnar had the title at Mania 38, they unified it when Roman won and now Roman continues the original lineage because only a goof would retire the most legitimate and long standing championship in wrestling. You can’t create 50 years of linage on the spur of the moment.

Do you wanna use Mattel or Jazwares? Mattel since they are easier to find on ebay but you could tell me about jazwares too I'm not picky I’ve seen several mean mark callous figures on Mercari, and a boot swap would make it pretty good for Snitsky. I’m surprised they haven’t given names to the most common Torsos, but a lot of people use Brock Lesnar elites(the trunk wearing ones) or they use the Triple H/classic bodybuilder torso elites as a base for Steiner. A good way to save money is to find a figure that’s scuffed up and scrub it to death with a magic eraser to clean off the marker or paint

I just finished cutting up a year’s worth of figure boxes/cardboard for making paper mache for building terrain/props for toy photography and tabletop gaming. I saved the plastic windows to be windows on spaceships made from other trash. Always recycle when you can. If you want a buried alive playset for basically free, you can make one with paper mache made from all your figure box cardboard.

I need a few pages to do it, but I could wax poetic about how good Damian Priest was at being a smart worker tonight, knowing exactly what to do and making the most out of the smallest details. Literally the only thing I hated was the crash pad driver spot, because the match literally could have continued, and been better off, without it happening. Damien Priest is capable of brilliance, and the sheer meticulousness of his timing, mannerisms, sensibility of chaining moves and moments together, made this the best match of his life. He’s never shown that level of old school working before.

Stares in not sure if serious because hogan didn’t start the business and that kind of revisionist history is why I am such an old man who yells at the sky according to the halfwit modern fans

I wish I loved anything as much as I hated Balor’s god forsaken(pun?) spirit Halloween demon outfit. Bianca’s entrance made me really happy as a person and I hope the WWE donated to help that little girl who lost her mother. Rollins’ was amazing and felt like watching Gorgeous George and the conductor was a fun element. Roman’s was so tasteful and subtle.

I’m ranking it low in hopes of making Rhea mad so we can have witty banter and our chances of making out go up, or I can at least surprise her with flowers and end up winning her over as a nice friend.

Even through all the turmoil of the last three years, we can always rely on a laugh from the jobbers spam posting to get access to the classifieds.

The memes and tiktoks would probably be insane and the thing would sell out if they became a meme

I know it hasn’t been exact for a long time, but the figures should be consistent in terms of size. Like, there shouldn’t be such glaring issues in the scale differences.

I’m grateful we finally get a Curt I can afford, but I do question why the choice to make this plastic when they’ve established that this year and beyond is soft goods central. Like, I’m sure nextman’s is gonna come in and correct me, as I am uninformed, but why the choice to go plastic on this figure when soft goods are way more important for the legends over the modern guys? And I say that because legends collectors are way fussier, not because the legends are necessarily more important figures.

In all serious, there are some really amazing designs being revealed. Like, what action figure has a tooth sticking out of their nose? What action figure has ever depicted a muscle tear? I thought they’d topped themselves in terms of innovation when it came to the shaking hands for the mega powers. Along with the gavel holding hand for Mick Foley, I lowkey feel like that’s brilliant to keep loose collectors from losing the gavel.
Like, it’s amazing and kind of sad how pro wrestling, the most physically real thing that is depicted in action figures regularly, has done some of the outlandish and wild designs for figures and accessories.

The Great American Bash was a WCW PPV but in 2006 The Main Event featured all WCW talent. Booker T Vs Rey Mysterio, Chavo interfered, the ref was Nick Patrick and it was for The Big Gold Belt, the former WCW World title. This is a chef’s kiss addition to the thread. Thank you 🙏

Cool thread idea! A lot of people, especially younger fans, believe Andre was first lifted at Wrestlemania 3, however he had been lifted previously by other wrestlers, and scoop slammed by Hogan in either Japan or one of the smaller territories. Also bodyslammed by Hogan in the WWF during their match at Shea Stadium in 1980. In all seriousness, less than 10 people pinned Andre between 1972 and 1987, which is amazing considering he worked every major territory during that period.

Lesnar & Foley have never crossed paths ever… shocking they never had a promo/segment or any kind of interaction together. I saw a meme saying that and I was trying to falsify as much as possible since I had posted mistakes previously. I can’t imagine if the match would have been amazing or a styles clash, because it’s such an unfamiliar pairing. Like how The Rock never faced Shawn Michaels, which many people would expect to be a classic, but there’s possibly factors that haven’t been accounted that would have made the match anti climatic

I'd be surprised if this one doesn't get brought up in the build.. Cody and Roman both had their television debuts at the 2007 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony, on the same night both of their fathers were inducted. Cody appeared on stage alongside his brother Dustin while Roman was shown in the audience with the Anoa’i family. Oh my god, that’s extra crazy! I hope it gets shown in one of the hype packages on the night of.
