If non wrestling fans see any of those on a shelf they arenât going to know about storylines or what the wrestlers did in their personal lives. If they see what I guess is essentially the Japanese swastika, it might cause issues. Itâs not even remotely the same thing and it isnât people just âcancelingâ figures. It was brought to Mattelâs attention what the imagery can be seen as and they made a business choice.

Maybe RVD will be double packed now and weâll have a better shot at him in stores?

Yeah I understand being upset over not getting a certain gear especially if itâs something youâve looked forward to for a while. But for some people that design can trigger some really bad thoughts and memories. Hangman said that was why he stopped using the noose. He had survivors and family members of suicide telling him it was giving them PTSD of a really bad time |

Guess Kamalaâs gotta go to. |

Well, I mean Lawler did give him that gimmick because Lawler is a racist. He also talks about explaining the gimmick to Jim like he was an idiot. That wasnât on Jim. |
