As Rocky is in the game i would say a two pack : Rocky vs Thunderlips They would need more than just Stallone signed, they would also need to get permission from whoever owns the Rocky name/franchise, correct? But, there was a cape shown at WrestleMania Axxess that looked like the Thunderlips cape, so, maybe you're onto something. |

Cape shown at WM was purple and gold for his pre-Hulkamania heel look.  |

Kyle here. I’ll give a better clue my grandpa is 96. My grandpa knows nothing of wrestling and men like him hated this guy for a controversial reason at the time. If this figure is not San Diego, con, it will be interesting to see what else it would possibly be for. This will have crossover appeal no doubt about it. Personally I would love Lawler Kaufman, 100 times more and it’s not Iron Mike. Has to be Charlie Hustle in the San Diego Chicken uniform… |

Rodman was hated for just being "different" in the 90's and Ozzy for the bat incident in the 80's. |

So this guy might have been hated because he was another race or they thought he was gay? Ref Muhammad Ali (a lot of people had a problem with him because he was an outspoken black man that talked about real problems the black community faced in a very racist america, simpleton white guys hated that) or Liberace (once again, your average peckerwood would have hated him because he “was fruity”) |

Pete Rose is a guy a 96 year old who has never gambled and played for the Cubs at one time definitely would hate. Liberace would be the worst exclusive of all time |

Cyndi Lauper would be cool, weren't we supposed to get a figure of her years ago? I may be thinking of Wendi Richter?
Ali would also be cool

Has to be Ali. Every other name offered is, at best, a bit of a stretch. Ali was HATED hated back in his prime.

Wishful thinking, but I sure would like a Wrestlemania 3 Alice Cooper. Not a wrestler and a 96 year-old would have hated him in the ‘70s.

Having seen the figure, I think it’s going to get a mixed bag reaction. Some will move it, others won’t have a use for it. Can’t wait to see the packaging!

I've seen the latest Kyle Peterson Figure News video, and he said it's NOT Andy Kaufman.
So with that option crossed off I could see the crossover figure of:
Ali
Dennis Rodman
Cyndi Lauper
(Surprisingly never seen one response of) David Arquette
