 Since we've been getting King of the Ring figures and Kurt Angle has also made his long awaited return, I thought this would be a good elite to have. Maybe as an exclusive somewhere. |

I’ve expressed great interest in a King of the Ring run to go off Bret Hart. King Haku, Mable, Kurt Angle, HHH, Austin maybe with the chair. King Booker, Edge with the Stanley Cup, Sheamus and Billy Gunn with the King Ass tights.

We've had Bret, Mabel is rumored, Billy Gunn is rumored...I could easily see it. |

We've had Bret, Mabel is rumored, Billy Gunn is rumored...I could easily see it. King Mabel is rumored to be the 4th figure in the Austin/96 Jake/Harley Race set. The Austin in that set is supposed to be from King of the Ring 96 as well. Haku wasn't a King of the Ring winner, he was given the crown from Bobby Heenan when Harley Race had to have surgery in 1988 (Also, Haku's tag partner, Tama, was injured which opened up Haku for a singles run). Haku and Harley Race did wrestle at Royal Rumble 1989 to determine the true king of the WWF, Haku won. By the way, that was a horrible match, it didn't even make the VHS release, I am not sure if Race had fully recovered from his surgery. The only bright spot of the match was Heenan on the outside, one minute cheering for Haku, then next minute cheering for Harley Race. Actually, the King of the Ring winner in 1988 was Ted DiBiase. I believe Tito Santana won 1989. They didn't have one in 1990 or 1992, Bret Hart won 1991 as well as 1993. So we have Bret from 93, King Mable from 95 is supposed to be coming out, Austin from 96, so it is possible they are going to continue with King of the Ring figures. Plus, King Hacksaw was also rumored to be coming out a while back. Should be an easy and cheap make for Haku and Hacksaw since they wore the same crown and cape as Harley Race and they already have the molds for those. The only problem with them making a King of the Ring line is there will always be a whole, it seems we will never get a Owen Hart figure. Which sucks because he crossed multiple generations (Golden, New, and Attitude) and has a large following. A lot of people have requested his figure, and his KotR 94 attire is one of my favorites of his, probably tied with his SummerSlam 94 attire. |
