Someone that will never get another figure.

Why r Mike awesome and Chris kanyon “cAnceled”

Bam Bam was an overdose so was test, but Christopher awesome and kanyon were intentional and I just don't see them being made by a company such as Mattel which aim is for kids. Kerry was in legends and that's it. And only in 2010.

I should have said canceled, murder or suicide intentional. Accidental might be ok.

I think there’s this false narrative that people who died in controversial etc type fashion won’t be in the HOF likewise ‘broken down’ wrestlers

For example a lot of people (wrongly) assumed dynamite’s physical state was stopping the bulldogs from going in the HOF and they would go in once he had passed. It’s actually a very crude and uncouth opinion in my view and people looking for rhyme and reason when the truth may be a lot less interesting

I think that narrative has been passed over into figure territory.

In actuality only Benoit has (understandably) been written out of wwe history

People said we wouldn’t get Chyna in HOF or figures - we did

People said Scott Steiner wouldn’t get signed to a deal because he was so outspoken…people said hogan was gone for good…

There was even a narrative that we wouldn’t ever get any macho merch or figures and he had been ‘black balled’...how did that conspiracy theory work out in the end?

Truth is often a lot more boring and sensible than the fiction people build up around it

Why wouldn’t Test get a figure? I think it’s mental he’s never had a Mattel fig. Such a shame, he for sure needs a long haired T&A fig.

Murderers & rapists don't deserve figs. I'd never say never on the obscure names like CorVon. We got the Goon 🤣


To address this "PC" stuff: another perspective is that we respect cultures and views that we wouldn't have a decade ago. Western culture idolized straight, white, protestant, male views but now we are (slowly, with extreme pushback) accepting to others. I'll bet near 100% those that get upset about this type of stuff are white dudes that see their grip on the world slipping away. Try taking a step back and seeing it through the eyes of some of the other 8 billion people on earth rather than your own narrow view?

Buff Bagwell probably

Zombie will probably make Mike Awesome in his 6" line since he's making him as a Retro. Big enough name. Doesn't have a Mattel or Jazwares and hasn't had a figure since 2000.

The "no suicide" thing seems totally made up, if I'm honest. Especially when Hasbro is across the street still making Jason David Frank Power Rangers toys. I'm guessing there is simply more money in it for, as an example, the Von Erichs with PowerTown than WWE due to the specific focus on that era of wrestling and working directly with those talents or estates. I have no doubt in my mind that the estate of Kanyon would make way more money doing a Zombie figure than signing a WWE Legends deal.

I would definitely agree Sunny is on Mattel's no fly list.

Either

The talent was a piece of s*** when they were with the company or they were a piece of s*** in their lives after.

or

the company treated them very bad and they or their families don't want to sign another deal so they can make money off of their likeness.

I promise you, it is that simple. No list needed. It is what it is.

Tomko is very much not in jail lol. He was arrested over a decade ago for robbing a pharmacy because he was an opiate addict, but is currently happily married and posting on Instagram. IIRC he owns a gym and juice bar in Florida.
