Nope. It would be a conflict of interest.

 What kind of dumbass question is this? Of course it would violate their contract. |

If there's nothing in the contract forbidding it, sure. But I believe Bill said a few years ago that there is an exclusivity clause in their contract with WWE.

Mattel can not (as far as we can infer). WWE can sign with as many figure deals as they want, but (again, inferring) not to produce figures the same size or characteristics as Mattel’s.

Honestly, not many people would buy AEW figures or NJPW figs.

Honestly, not many people would buy AEW figures or NJPW figs. NJPW's US footprint is pretty small. But AEW will be on a major cable network in prime time. It might take a few years to build viewership, but I could definitely see them getting to a size where they have figures at retail ala TNA in the early 00's. |

We’re seriously discussing AEW figures already? I think the OP is fantasizing about NJPW figures. People are always asking Bill about that on his social media. |

I highly doubt it. But maybe if they're making sports entertainment figures for WWE maybe they could make wrestling figures for AEW I'm sure they could wriggle around it somehow if they really wanted to but why risk a good profitable relationship with the biggest wrestling company in the US.
