The Vanguard Podcast just interviewed Jesse Ventura and his son. Jesse complimented the new regime in WWE and that he is in talks with them. If he signs a Legends/Nostalgia Contract/Agreement... omg. *-*
May more much needed names come to the door now that Vince is gone.

please jesus, i dont ask for much ... ... jesse ventura in mattel form please 🙏 Agreed. This makes me hopeful for a change with others. Not putting too much stock in said hope, 'cause evidence isn't there... but when solid proof like the Ventura interview is out there for us... that's what I can put my faith into it. 😀🙏😊 |

If this can be a sign that we are getting people back like Ventura, Demolition, Hercules, One Man Gang, Dynamite Kid, Barbarian, and more, the future for Legends and Coliseum Collection lines would be amazing!

Great news. I would love an announcer Jesse Ventura! Saturday Night's Main Event style! Hopeful that something comes out of this!

That's good to hear. Does he have a podcast? If so, I can see them trying to get him signed with them to do the show. Bring him back as an announcer, the ones they have today are terrible. Pushing it now, Chico and Jesse in the Coliseum Collection line. Make it happen, Action Figure Attack. |

There's a lot of reasons for optimism, but don't exect a magic bullet solution. HHH/Kahn are known deal makers and have shown the willingness to mend fences. That's a game changer for guys like Warrior, Bruno, Ventura, etc where there was legit bad blood with Vince. But other bottlenecks are likely unchanged - WWE has to see money to be made, the talent have to be willing to sign, there are a limited number of slots, etc. |

What is the incentive for Jesse Ventura? He is already in the Hall of Fame.

If so, then a new generation of action figures with a company that has the distribution Mattel has would open-up new items for him to sign - potentially a nice little side benefit to whatever he'd get directly from WWE. And I'd love a Jesse Retro, please and thank you  |

Pushing it now, Chico and Jesse in the Coliseum Collection line. He was the best bar none. Loved him in the 1990 royal rumble especially the push up bar contest with dino bravo. They should have never changed him up. He wouldnt have gone on to become governor if he did however so he won in the end. But yeah as a fan i enjoyed listening to jesse' colorful commentary the most. He would have never been allowed to talk freely if he was announcing today in this "free speech" culture. He is to me a symbol of the late 80s and early 90s and the end of the wwf. I bet he could still do a better job than the current announcers. He had no fear. |

Would have been cool to get a Vince/Ventura Coliseum Collection pack, but that’s not gonna happen.
Maybe he will be the SDCC exclusive this year.
A Monsoon/Ventura 2 pack with commentator accessories would be awesome.

If Jesse is ever going to be a SDCC exclusive, it would have to be Predator Jesse, to have that mainstream crossover appeal.

Sounds like I'm in the minority wanting a ring-gear Jesse Ventura. Something like his LJN would great, but I'd take any ring-gear version.
