Definitely a bit of a controversial topic here, but one that I feel like uniquely belongs in this board. Mattel will never touch him imo.
With that said, do we think that all of these third party companies that have sprung up, will avoid him all together as well? I wouldn't ask this question about something as obvious as Benoit, but I feel like Snuka is at least up for discussion?

Probably not. I feel like his family just wants to move past any focus on him.

That was before the PR about Nancy Argentino was really out to a larger swath of people. |

I’d say he’ll be signed back up at some point.
Having an elite and a hasbro means it’s not the most pressing however.

Is Tamina or Sim Snuka in charge of his estate?

I don’t see these independent toy companies like Zombie, whatever Chella is now, PowerTown, or any of the 20 other companies making Hasbro figs having an issue with making Snuka.

In my opinion, I think it’ll be a few more years before anything in terms of merchandise is released. I do think he’ll have some type of merchandise again eventually.

Id say it depends on if he's under a Legends deal. Im willing to bet both Snuka & Strongbow are under WWE deals but its Mattel that isnt going to touch them because of their insensitivities

Not so sure about Snuka being Mattel’s choice (though I think they’d stay away from him anyway) even if he does have a deal. Did WWE put him back in the HOF at any point? |
