I love the hell out of him, but Scott Hall was definitely a midcarder. Nothing wrong with that. Still more than deserving of an Ultimate. The idea that it has to be main eventers is a bad take. Yeah I agree that there are a ton of big names that aren't the BIGGEST names, but would still be able to sell at retail under the UE banner and price point.

Think it will be fine, will fit right in with the New Gen arena/ring for those who get it.

Jake Roberts Scott Hall Rick Rude Lex Luger Yokozuna Ted DiBiase Honky Tonk Man You lost me at HTM Definitely not my first choice, but I'd take a Honky Tonk Man Ultimate. You could do three heads, multiple hands, IC title, and new jumpsuit. I'd go with the white and gold jumpsuit, and with the black tights with yellow/gold decals.

There was a reason he was at the bottom of my list. 🤣 He is not a favorite of mine, but similar to Jarrett they would be able to really go in on one of his more elaborate attires/jumpsuits with that UE budget.

I think a great choice to put with Jeff would be Razor. The two fit together and also have history. We also haven't had him yet and would also fit well with the upcoming Shawn and Diesel.

Didn’t it already get tested with shinsuke. Man.. I like Nakamura but the treatment he gets from Mattel you’d think he’s Prime Cena

I do think this Jeff Jarrett character works the best for this line. I personally believe it's the most memorable to the masses. I did prefer his Don't Piss me off and end of WCW characters, but this one works for a figure the best. The attire is flashy and colorful and you have the hat, the glasses, the guitar, you could put a microphone stand in there.

I just want a UE 2 pack Booker t v Jarrett or hell UE Hogan v Jeff Jarrett wcw bash at the beach 2000. He could have Hogan posed with a foot on Jarrett.
His wcw look would fit in his early tna days and a attitude Era look just gold and not red or green.

Wondering if a Mythic Legions or McFarlane Witcher horse would look cool for Jeff’s entrance.

Jeff Jarret was a main eventer for WCW in its dying days. Yes, he was a different character, but he was a world champ. He was just basically banned by wwe all these years until recently, so new wwe fans do not know him. I agree this will be a test for the main line, but a sucessful one

I see a lot of people hating on the Ronda, Shinsuke and Balor choices but we have to remember at the time of planning they were at the height of their popularity and probably wanted to strike while the iron was hot. It's just a shame a year later all three were much lower on the cards. We've seen this happen many times before.

Give me Honky and Jake Ultimates with a Snake Pit set on Mattel Creations. Give me this now. I love the Honky Tonk Man. If we can get Jarret and Doink in the ultimate line, we can get a Honky. And we need a non breakable guitar. And a belt for the jump suit. How about two different colored jump suits?

Now that I think of it… we got a Jarrett UE before an RVD. I hope there’s something in the works I thought for sure we'd see ONS RVD with the two titles shown as an Ultimate.

I think Jeff will do good since its a first time in the line. His outfit will also be colorful (hopefully), so it will stand out in the toy aisle.

this figure is gonna fly. Jarrett is a massive want for collectors, as long as it looks cool there will be no issues with selling it.
