I would imagine they would be in the MNW or the Legends line. Even if they go with MNW first, they prob would get another release 2 years later in the Legends line (I believe most Legends contracts are 5 years). Do we even know how many series a year we will get of MNW? They've announced 3 sets and the first one hasn't even hit Walmart yet. Prob looking at next year for hitting stores if they are in MNW (and the line is still around). And the Uncle Paul exclusives are $40 (if you are fast enough). Why do y’all call this random guy “Uncle Paul?” Because he treats us better than Walmart. So he's like that friend that's not related but cool enough to be an uncle. |

The only one I’ve been able to get from Paulmart is Hogan. This is shaping up to be another mess. Whodathunkit? |

If the Best of Ruthless Aggression line is any indication, then I think the MNW one is gonna run for approximately 2 years, 6 waves total for the Elites. Not sure about Ultimates though as it seems like they are ramping up those releases after seeing how popular the line has gotten, so I think it's entirely possible we end up with 4 waves of those, 2 figures each wave. |

Why do y’all call this random guy “Uncle Paul?” He’s Paul Bearer’s uncle and also related to Paul Heyman. It’s just ideal. Also, uncle Paul has the goods. I love uncle Paul. I actually tried to order off Uncle Paul a month ago. Shipping label was printed but the order never went past 'preparing for shipment' and when I asked about it two weeks later, he told me he was actually out of stock. I was so sad. I needed that figure. |

One would think the Survivor Series Sami has to be War Games, which is awesome. tbf looking forward to KO hopefully it’s from Survivor Series 2022 Aswell. If KO don’t come with that Dusty Rhodes t shirt as a cloth one it will be hard times. If it's not cloth goods I WILL be cutting the plastic one off and replacing it with a custom cloth goods one. I'm more concerned with them doing something stupid like they did with the Battle Pack Shane figure and making Kevin's jeans into bellbottoms. Fixing that would take far more work than a simple shirt swap. Or worse, something wild happens with the scaling that, due to them using new legs for both Sami and Kevin, Kevin comes out looking about 5 inches taller (or shorter) than Sami somehow. I know that when I got my Sami and Kevin basics I had to muck with the necks to make them closer to their proper height because there was far too much of a difference between them.
Also, I'm gonna have to figure out decals before then so that I can take his wrist tape off and give him the rest of his tattoos so I can make a backstage Kevin that I buy about 50 different t-shirts worth of other wrestler's merchandise to have fun with.
Really though, if they do make the UE figure with a sculpted singlet torso with a cloth shirt, I could see them switching Kevin to cloth goods going forward. The KO Elite torsos already come with the UE articulation so it wouldn't be too hard to make the switch once the part was molded, you'd think. Unless they decide to do what I hope for and give Kevin a leaner torso to reflect his current build, which, I can dream but I doubt it.

I always remember that festival of friendship Kevin Owens figure them legs was so loose, so hopefully this KO has tighter legs im looking forward to seeing this Kevin Owens if it’s from 2022 Survivor Series. |

Further proof that Bray Wyatt is eligible for a figure again, the WWE Supercard Game just instituted a special edition card of Bray Wyatt.

For some reason...part of me thinks that this exclusive is NOT The Outsiders and we're gonna get them after. I don't know why but the screws on the edge of the graphic they posted makes me think that's important. They're usually pretty intentional with their advertising.
But then I'm trying to think what the relevance could be. They also don't say what it is. There is no specification that it is in fact a figure. It literally just says Mattel exclusive.
Could we get a stage?

Nowhere does it say “reveal.” It can be preorder for something already shown, so that’s still my guess.
And honestly everyone gets their hopes up, but it could literally be Bell to Bell figures or whatever.

I’m assuming it’ll just be The Outsider Ultimates, but I’d love for it to be CM Punk. Or another Cody Rhodes. 😊

The only exclusive shown already is the Outsiders so it could be that. Or something new. We will see. |

I don’t think this is what it is, but CM Punk’s return attire at Survivor Series was so plain I could see them rushing it out as an exclusive, once they start making him in his gear or in his new merch the demand for it plummets so it might be a “now or never” scenario.

take this with a grain of salt, however some fan asked Zoey Stark why she doesn't have a figure yet, and she said its coming this summer. hope that is true
