I think it’s unanimously expected that his in-ring career is over. It’s so unfortunate because at the time of his injury I think he was just starting to click as an annoying pest of a character and he was getting genuine heat. The guy had mad talent as well. Makes me wonder where he’d be today

Checked popfindr and brickseek and it shows Vernon Hills Target has network spotlight number went from 8 to 6. So i went to check. Nothing on the shelves. Asked worker and he checked and street dated 10-6. Apparently an employee bought the 2. Wow. And none of these ers are willing to sell it to a paying customer

I knew that they would do business again, didn’t know it would be this soon. But this is where Spider-Man needs to be long term financially and creatively. Regardless of details, spectacular news.

My local target has them in stock but the employee said they couldn’t sell them until October 6th. My guy didn’t even flinch, was like I’ll go get them for you, came open with the fresh case...take what you need and boom I had them I probably have to go to a different location. He said even if I tried to buy them they wouldn’t scan, which was bullshit.

One of the most misused talents of WWE. Hope he's booked properly this time. He was in middle of a massive push when he left last time. How so? I remember him getting squashed by Miz on his way out. I never remember him having world title matches and Vince was never high on him.

I think he’d be most valued in NXT. Main Roster is a cluster as it is. They have all this talent and fully utilize 60-70% of them, if that. Morrison would be treated like a big star and could have killer matches against Dream, Gargano, Cole, Riddle, etc.

According to Brickseek, a few of my local targets have the network spotlight elites in stock. Be on the lookout.

Pretty sweet but I’d rather have a 1998 Taker with his entrance attire from WM14. Blows my mind they’ve yet to make that Taker

Walmart in Johnsburg has a 2 fresh cases of elite 68 but, no Mabel or Patterson. All the ghostbusters elites have been cleaned out. Have 2 Rock exclusive figs left(already have). They do have Ghost/Luis and Hela/Skurge 2 packs on clearance for 30 bucks. Have 4 each minus the Hela/Skurge I grabbed. Why tf are these stores restocking E68??? My Walmart has stocked atleast 3 cases of E68 but we’ve yet to see 69.

While I like the True FX, there’s nothing really special about the figure. The shirt is meh, and the extra hands are hilariously big. The microphone was done so cheaply because you can see the new WWE logo mold on it but they printed the retro smackdown logo over it. They could have atleast gave him a different color Brahma Bull on his trunks. Red or blue would have looked cool. I have enough flashback Rocks that are superior.

Too bad nobody is clamoring to get anything that WWE puts their name on.

No
Y’all are being fickle. But at the same time I think WWE is usually late to the game when it comes to capitalizing on someone’s momentum. When Seth came back from his injury 3 years back he was white hot, everyone was ready for him to be a babyface yet they didn’t pull the trigger. After he beat Hunter he was pretty over, then nothing, they didn’t put him in a world title program for 2 years. He still is over, but they don’t give you compelling stories to care.

The Walmart in Joliet on 52 has 2 Rocks from Elite 69. Nothing else from that set. The Walmart in Shorewood on 59 has a couple of those variant Seth Rollins from Basic Top Talent ‘19 in. He’s in that red and black “Deadpool” gear. I think they made the running change since the gear was so similar to his Elite Top Talent ‘19. Yeah I stopped at that Walmart after work and saw 3 of those Rocks but no Ghostbusters elites. Which I find odd because some of those Rock figures were supposed to be shipped with that Ghostbusters set. There was also no other figs of E69 that I saw just E68. Idk how they shipped those out. Very odd.

I don’t know why some of you guys are clamoring for Bray to get the title off Seth. Behind that gimmick, which is fun, is just the same mediocre Bray Wyatt who isn’t great in the ring when it counts. The whole appeal of Bray’s character is that he doesn’t show up often. How are you gonna be champ and not show up consistently without looking like Brock. These are the things you guys don’t think about. Bray’s character is eventually going to run its course and when it does you guys will bitch about it too. You can’t blame Rollins for his booking. They made him have a program with Corbin, then lose to Brock, then win it back, then a not so popular Braun. At the beginning of this year everyone was begging for Rollins to have the title
I’d rather have Rollins as the long term champ than a Mr Rogers/Scary Clown gimmick of a guy they need to protect because he’ll get overexposed in the ring. In other word all of you sound..
.......Wait for it.......
........FICKLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From what I understand, WWE, maybe even Vince personally footed the bill for a lot of the medical issues Flair had been dealing with in the past few years. You can say a lot of negative things about that company but they do take care of a lot of guys/gals and Flair happens to be one of them. Flair is Flair, still one of the best ever, but the man was never good with his money. If he was, he wouldn’t be doing this.

I knew the moment he turned heel it was downhill. I think losing to AJ at Mania was a mistake and he’s never been the same since. Their excuse was “oh he’s not over enough.” Well you literally fed him to Jinder ing Mahal on two separate occasions. That doesn’t get anybody over. That’s the problem with the company, they book everyone to sh*t and look like losers then wonder why nobody gets over. I’ll get off my soapbox now.
