I believe Juvy is still wrestling for AAA, which makes a WWE contract a longshot. A lot of the WCW cruiserweight guys are still wrestling regularly for major international promotions (Liger and Taka in NJPW, La Parka, Juve, and Psicosis in Mexico) that would probably prevent them from signing WWE deals even if WWE was interested. But I'd take pretty much any of the cruisers from that era. Damn it. So we got a very slim chance of these guys being made in the foreseeable future.

It would be cool if Mattel did the entire roster for wcw/nwo revenge for the n64. Juvi wasn't even done by Jakks when he came out with Mexicools. I would buy the entire set! I loved that game and still play it to this day.

Even the mere mention of the game forced me to dig it out of storage, plug it in my N64 and play it again lol

If Mysterio returns and Konnan has been as involved in negotiations as rumors report, it could open a door. Konnan is very well connected with a lot of the Lucha stars, and brought many of those guys into WCW. If they're making a renewed push into the Latin American market, maybe some of those guys end up with Legends deals. But if we're waiting for them to end their in ring careers? That might be a long wait. Liger is still wrestling internationally at 53. A lot of the Lucha wrestlers continue wrestling full time into their 50's and even 60's, probably both because the Lucha style is based more on tumbling than flat back bumps and because the Mexican economy isn't great. Juventud is only 43, which is crazy to think about considering guys like Cena and Styles are 40.

I want all the WCW Masked guys as they would make great figs. Juvi, Psicosis and Liger would be awesome. An 89 Muta as well.

I wouldn't mind him, but there are so many I'd prefer to have first.
A 3-pack of Juventud, LaParka, and Psicosis would be cool.

If he does then you’re right, it will increase the chances of a Juvi deal. Can’t believe he is only 43.

When there were rumors of Rey returning in late 2017, Konnan was said to be the one negotiating Rey's contract. He's been getting Mexican wrestlers booked in the States going back to early in his tenure with WCW, so he holds a lot of sway in certain circles but has also burned a lot of bridges.

They should make a talking figure that steals all The Rock's catchphrases

FWIW, a WCW Psychosis is one of my biggest wants.
I'm up for any of the WCW Cruiserweight guys though, especially if we can finally get the title.

He's actually getting a Figure with another company who makes figures. So I'm not sure if Mattel would be able to do him as well. It depends more on if the WWE has him signed on some form of legends or merchandise deal. That I don’t know. But the fact he’s getting a figure from another company doesn’t immediately disqualify him from getting the Mattel treatment. This similarly happened to Kevin Owens, Luke Gallows, AJ styles and a few others if memory serves....

Those are all people who had a contract to get those figures made THEN joined WWE full time after the fact. That's a completely different situation.

Mil Mascaras was more of a WWF guy and they have never made him so I doubt Juvi has a shot.

WCW/ECW Psicosis would be better imo
