Well if they gave people a definitive answer, are they signed still or not, than people would stop speculating about them. They have danced around the question it seems. They haven't doged the questions they've made jokes about it. Steve said they were going to be knuckle crunchers just a few days ago. Even show them or say they're not coming. Its cast a shadow over everything else this weekend including Great Muta. Dodged/made jokes of, it's the same thing. They didn't give a direct answer.

Loved the reveals today. Mostly.
1. That RVD head. OOF. Wow that's rough. Real rough. I have no idea who that's supposed to be but that's brett hart levels of bad.
2. Wish so much Billy Gunn had been in green. The Billy Gunn in green and Road Dogg with the hat are huge holes in my collection that I wish these could have filled. Love the cloth goods shirts though, much nicer than the plastic ones.
3. For the love of all that is holy and for the sake of this forum, please let them reveal Steiners tomorrow. I don't want to deal with the backlash if they don't.
4. The head on JD looks great. The hair is atrocious. Praying the alternate hair looks better but, really, I'm starting to hate these alternate hair things real quick. Also wish he was in black and purple though to match the set, but then I felt the same about the new Rhea as well. White doesn't suit TJD or the full stable setup that people are potentially trying to build.
5. So thrilled about the DX IYH from the vault figure but, beard? Where's his beard?
6. What is that head on Diesel.
7. LACED BOOTS ON THE KANE AGAIN
8. This is NOT a fault, it's a correction to earlier statement. That's an AMAZING Becky head. Best one yet. Gonna need a couple of those just for customs.
9. Are they ending the Main Event line already? Or are tomorrows reveals going to be nothing but Punk and basics? I'm honestly confused why we haven't seen hardly any basics at all.
But there is a lot of good here too. Again, releasing the IYH figure was a massive want of mine, and with a better head as well. Having elite Road Dogg and Billy figures at all will be something new for my collection. The Proto of UE Dom looks epic. Grateful to have a Diesel at all, even with the weird head. Rereleasing Heyman as a single is a wonderful decision for everyone who didn't give in and overpay for him the first time (I did. So be it).
UPGRADED FTIL SOLO OMG SIGN ME UP WHERE AND WHEN
That's probably my biggest want of all of today's showings. That better be a figure they release and not just something they threw together for the show. Please, PLEASE, Mattel, release that upgrade. Bloodline collectors will be forever grateful.

Love the updated DX IYH HBK. That scan is way more accurate since that night he wore his hair half up, not all the way down like the prior sculpt. Actually that original scan from Elite 19 was even incorrect for that figure. At Bad Blood HBK had his hair half up half down too and they still just made it all down. Weird

RVD looks like Squak Scolari from Baseketball.

The render of Van Dam was perfect and then we saw the actual prototype. Oooof.

It was on Walmart's website for pre-order. The pre-orders have shipped, not sure if this will be in stores or if their site will get more.

If they don't reveal The Steiner Brothers on sunday then I don't know if I will watch the reveals at Comic Con. That's going to be hard to swallow.

I'm honestly gonna be shocked if anyone finds this in stores. Walmart is shipping a whole two each of the MNW UEs, I can see them getting two of these in per store, if any, and that's it. Maybe even just one considering a "case" is one set.

Just so happens, when I looked up the set I got a hit for a Walmart out of my typical grounds.
