I won a lot a while ago with some Jakks figures. I identified most of them pretty quickly, but there was a pair of Dudley Boyz and a Big Show figure that I was struggling with. I think I finally figured out that they are from Ringside Rivals Series 8. I can find practically no information on this series outside of the pictures I found on The Wrestling Figure Museum. I saw no active or completed auctions on eBay. I'm assuming these are fairly rare based on the lack of information I found, but would love to be educated more on them if anyone knows more about Ringside Rivals Series 8.

I don’t think there was a dvon/bubba ringside rival pack However series 3 had dvon/spike and series 2(maybe) had Matt Hardy and bubba. I also don’t think they reached rivals 8 - I think 7 was the last one Do you happen to have any descriptions? |

I have never saw any of those and I have doubts they were actually released. That Kurt Angle would have been a must. |

It looks to me like these are 3 of the 6 figures from that set. It is also possible these were released in another set that I'm just not familiar with. imgur.com/a/7KoYRX5 |

Maybe it was a short release. |

Yeah I never saw or heard of that at all either crazy find!
The gear is all late 2002 - so this set would have came out summer 2003 I would think, it’s just crazy to think something like this could still pop up!

Looks like it might have been a Canada exclusive? Correct me if I’m wrong the wording on the front of the packaging is French no? Unless thats just the only pics of it on the net, again which for extensive databases like these would be weird.

I found a better image of the Angle/Benoit 2 pack: imgur.com/a/2igjE9NIt does have French text on it. The lot I got the figures from did come from Canada, so perhaps you're onto something with it being a Canadian exclusive series. |

I have never seen that Undertaker before, but I have seen that Angle/Benoit set. So funny that things like this are still coming to light all these years later. Damn you Jakks for releasing so many bloody figures every week.
