Evolution Returns to the WWE in 2014

Evolution has officially reunited as an entire unit in the WWE with Ric Flair returning on the April 28th, 2014 WWE Monday Night RAW! Triple H, Randy Orton and Batista decided to reform the legendary group after WrestleMania XXX to deal with what they considered the unruly and wild group, The Shield. It remains to be seen as to whether or not Evolution will successfully stop The Shield in their tracks and if they do, whether or not they will remain a unit or disband. While the WWE Universe tries to unravel the mystery that is Evolution, they can re-create their sudden and surprising dominance through Mattel WWE figures easily with both current and upcoming Mattel WWE action figures!

Triple H has been spearheading the 2014 Evolution reunion with his position as a member of the WWE’s authority. Serving as COO and now more often as an active wrestler, The Game has set aside his need to be the King of Kings and joined forces with Batista and Randy Orton to try and stop Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins. His Mattel WWE Elite 28 wrestling figure perfectly and accurately represents his modern day look as a performer and as the WWE’s harsh and intense authority figure.

The recently announced Mattel WWE Elite Series 30 wrestling action figures features many Legends that have the WWE Universe excited, but it will also feature the first Elite version of Batista since WWE Elite Series 6. The figure will likely reflect Batista’s return to the WWE in 2014, including his Royal Rumble win and his disapproval of the WWE and its fans. If those very same fans who loath Batista are lucky, he may even have some indicator representing him as a member of Evolution in his latest Elite.

Ric Flair Rejoins Evolution in 2014! Just in Time for a Mattel WWE Figure!

Ric Flair made an appearance on WWE Monday Night Raw on April 28th, 2014 to give Evolution his well wishes, only to turn and shake hands with the Hounds of Justice, The Shield! Whether it’s a modern day version of the legendary Superstar or a classic version featuring one of his many intensely colored robes, the WWE Universe and Mattel WWE collectors alike have been clamoring for a Mattel WWE Ric Flair figure since the launch of the line! With another appearance on WWE television, they can only hope that an actual figure is now even closer to a reality.

Our Favorites For the WrestleMania 30 Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal!

Mattel WWE Series 33 Big Show!

The first ever Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal will take place at WrestleMania 30! Featuring 30 of the WWE’s best and brightest Superstars (three of which remain unknown), all competitors will begin in the ring until one Superstar is left standing. That Superstar will take home the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal trophy and have incredible bragging rights. Anyone with a collection of 30 or more Mattel WWE wrestling figures can stage their own version of this incredible match-up. We have chosen six staples of the match, that also happen to be our possible odds-on favorites to win, that are must haves for anyone looking to recreate the event.

Mattel WWE Series 33 Big Show!

Mattel WWE Series 33 Big Show!

The easy favorite to win due to his sheer size and constant comparisons to the legendary Andre The Giant himself, the Big Show is one of the biggest Superstars to ever set foot in a WWE ring. Unless the collective WWE Superstars can find a way to power against Big Show, he can use his size and endurance to plow his way through the competition. His Mattel WWE Series 33 figure, with angry demeanor and camouflage print, can easily hand out WMD’s to your other wrestling figures for the win.

Mattel WWE Series 31 Alberto Del Rio!

Mattel WWE Series 31 Alberto Del Rio!

Alberto Del Rio has been distracted as of late, forced to face off with Batista because of harsh words the two had for each other upon his return. However, he has since turned his attentions back towards being the best competitor he can be and set his sights on the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal trophy. His Mattel WWE Series 31 figure has one of the most spot on likenesses for a wrestling figure of all time and perfectly represents just how driven Alberto Del Rio can be when he sets aside his arrogance.

Mattel WWE Series 38 Sheamus!

Mattel WWE Series 38 Sheamus!

Since his return to the WWE after injury at the 2014 Royal Rumble, Sheamus has been working off great momentum despite not winning. He has found his way to avoid vicious attacks at the hands of Christian and won match after match, looking to ignore the thorns in his side and get back in the picture for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. With a win in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, he could cement the clarity of his presence in pool of Superstars after the title. His Mattel WWE Series 38 figure is the most up-to-date version of the Celtic Warrior fans could get at this point.

Mattel WWE Series 36 Christian!

Mattel WWE Series 36 Christian!

With desperation and dangerousness part of Christian’s modern day strategy, he has been even more aggressive than ever before. If the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal will lead him to another shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, Christian will do all he can to win, trophy or not. Using power, agility and a bit of sneaky avoidance, Christian could be the last man standing. Christian’s Mattel WWE Series 36 figure is doused in a lucky green and determined to gain one more match.

Mattel WWE Series 38 Kofi Kingston!

Mattel WWE Series 38 Kofi Kingston!

The Mattel WWE Series 38 Kofi Kingston wears newly designed, long tights in green and black, showcasing Kofi’s new wild attire choice. With this refreshing design and optimistic outlook, Kofi is better than ever and ready to make himself a household name once and for all. If Kofi manages to snag the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal trophy, it can no longer be denied that he is ready to be matched up with WWE’s top Superstars.

Mattel WWE Series 34 Rey Mysterio!

Mattel WWE Series 34 Rey Mysterio!

Rey Mysterio has oft been considered an underdog due to his size, but never his wrestling ability. With a larger than life persona, Mysterio always has a chance to be the overall favorite in any multi-man match. He will do his best to prove that his stature in the eyes of the other WWE Superstars isn’t based upon height, but on actions and performance. He would prove his iconic status with a win of the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal trophy, going down in history as a giant in his own right. In Mattel WWE Series 34, Rey’s latest colorful outfit provides a massive question mark in the middle, but there is no question as to the possibility of his winning at WrestleMania 30.

Hulk Hogan and John Cena at WrestleMania XXX!

Hulk Hogan and John Cena at WrestleMania 30!
Hulk Hogan and John Cena at WrestleMania 30!

Hulk Hogan and John Cena at WrestleMania 30!

Two of the most iconic faces to ever grace the WWE Universe are Hulk Hogan and John Cena. With Hulk Hogan’s return to a WWE ring on the way to WrestleMania XXX, he will be hosting the big event and has constantly eluded to the fact that he is not afraid of getting physical with any WWE Superstar that thinks he has lost a step. John Cena has never shown any aggression towards Hulk Hogan, but he has stated over the years that Hogan is one of his all time favorites, and with his problems he continues to have with the Wyatt Family, who better to call on than the Immortal Hulk Hogan for help? With a Hulk Hogan Mattel WWE figure on the horizon, fans will soon be able to re-enact Hulk Hogan rescuing John Cena from the Wyatt Family, whether it happens in the WWE or not!

Mattel WWE Series 39 John Cena!

Mattel WWE Series 39 John Cena!

John Cena sees more Mattel WWE releases than almost every other WWE Superstar, and his latest is a perfect representation of the leader of the CeNation. With his perfectly cropped haircut, huge muscles and shorts ring attire in WWE Series 39, John Cena is ready, will and able to defend his own honor anytime, any place. He will never admit to being anything other than indestructible, and despite the fear of the Wyatt Family he is experiencing, he would never ask for help from Hulk Hogan. If Hogan were to show up in his defense, however, Cena would be hard pressed not to accept.

Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt!

Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt!

Bray Wyatt is terrifying both John Cena and the WWE Universe with his cult-like attacks and targeting of Cena himself. With his first Mattel WWE release in Series 39, he is not only making his presence known in the ring, but in the wrestling figure world. The figure is a must have for those looking to really put the pressure on their John Cena collection. After all, one Bray Wyatt shouldn’t be able to successfully defeat over 100 John Cena figures, right?…Right?

Mattel WWE Hulk Hogan wrestling figure!

Mattel WWE Hulk Hogan wrestling figure!

Hulk Hogan has returned to the WWE and has (so far) stayed out of most of the affairs of the WWE Superstars. Looking as if he hasn’t changed a bit, Hulk Hogan could shock and surprise fans with a return to the ring in 2014 if he is in as good a shape as he claims to be. If he does return to the ring, a Mattel WWE Hulk Hogan figure featuring his modern day look would be a necessity. Wrestling figure fans could face off their Hulk Hogan figure with any Superstar on the WWE roster that also has a figure, leaving an endless amount of possible fantasy match-ups. A boa accessory, bandana or sunglasses wouldn’t hurt, either.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Erick Rowan & Luke Harper!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Erick Rowan & Luke Harper!

If John Cena were indeed to receive back-up from Hulk Hogan in his challenges against Bray Wyatt, the Wyatt Family would be sure to follow. Luke Harper and Erick Rowan have been part of the relentless attacks against Cena and would defend their Wyatt Family leader to the absolute end, even if it meant having to stand up to an icon like Hulk Hogan. With a Mattel WWE release in Battle Packs 28, both Harper and Rowan can join in on any conflict of Bray Wyatt’s against WWE figures, including Hogan.

The Undertaker Returns for WrestleMania XXX…and Challenges Brock Lesnar!

Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series Undertaker!

The Undertaker has finally arrived upon the landscape of the WWE Universe, just in time to remind Superstars and fans alike that he has a WrestleMania streak to maintain. With plans to continue his streak into WrestleMania XXX, the lights went down and the fans shook at WWE Monday Night RAW. The Undertaker stood in the WWE ring face to face with Brock Lesnar, the self-proclaimed ‘Baddest Man on the Planet,’ and only had to make a singular gesture to make his goals known. With the turn of his head towards the WrestleMania XXX sign, both the Undertaker and Brock Lesnar knew that they were destined to face off on the grandest stage of them all. For Mattel WWE wrestling figure fans, the possibilities in play are extremely fruitful with many excellent choices to choose from when booking their own Brock Lesnar vs. Undertaker match.

Mattel WWE Elite 27 Undertaker!

Mattel WWE Elite 27 Undertaker!

The Mattel WWE Elite 27 Undertaker is intimidating wrestling figure fans like never before with his Entrance Robe complete with current, modern look including spikes and hood. It also includes a head sculpt with Undertaker’s shaved, semi-mohawk haircut and icy blue eyes. With complete Elite articulation and the most up to date version of Undertaker a wrestling fan can find, anyone looking to continue Undertaker’s streak early would be hard pressed to find a better action figure of the Dead Man.

Mattel WWE Ringside Collectibles 'Here Comes the Pain' Brock Lesnar Exclusive!

Mattel WWE Ringside Collectibles ‘Here Comes the Pain’ Brock Lesnar Exclusive!

An excellent choice for any wrestling figure fan looking for a more classic approach to defeating the Undertaker’s streak can find it with the Mattel WWE ‘Here Comes the Pain’ Brock Lesnar Exclusive. With Undisputed Championship, t-shirt and tattoos accurate to Brock’s peak time period, the current Undertaker may have even more trouble with a younger, more dangerous version of Brock Lesnar. A fantasy match-up of “old school’ Brock Lesnar and “legendary” Undertaker could prove to be the WrestleMania main event fans have been waiting for.

Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series Brock Lesnar!

Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series Brock Lesnar!

Speaking of Brock Lesnar, his intensity and drive to eliminate the Undertaker’s undefeated WrestleMania streak couldn’t be more apparent in his Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series figure. With updated, accurate tattoos, MMA-style wrestling gear and a head scan roaring with power, Brock Lesnar at the very least, truly looks like the baddest man on the planet. Just in time for WrestleMania XXX, this basic style figure carries standard articulation and comes packaged in WrestleMania XXX style carding.

Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series Undertaker!

Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series Undertaker!

The Undertaker is not far behind Brock Lesnar in the Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series set, complete with an updated look, accurate tattoos and a perfectly painted head sculpt. Looking to keep the streak alive, this figure trades in the gear and wild spikes for old fashioned brute Undertaker-style strength. Also packaged with WrestleMania XXX carding and ready to deliver a Tombstone Piledriver Brock Lesnar’s way, this is the most up to date, basic version of Undertaker a wrestling figure fan can get, especially with the WrestleMania XXX symbols.

Brock Lesnar is no easy foe to tackle, but Undertaker has kept his WrestleMania streak alive for so long it would be an unwise decision to bet against the power and raw mysticism of the Phenom.

Daniel Bryan…Free and On His Own! YES! YES! YES!

Daniel Bryan, after a calculated attack that had the entire WWE Universe fooled, has broken free from the control of the Wyatt Family and now stands to take on any and all challenges by himself! Luckily, the American Dragon was only playing possum when he fell victim to Bray Wyatt’s evil tactics. Now, Daniel Bryan is back to the bearded underdog that fans love, and he has more looks to add to his arsenal. Here are a few that would make great Mattel WWE figures.

Mattel WWE Daniel Bryan in Wyatt Family Attire!

Mattel WWE Daniel Bryan in Wyatt Family Attire!

Daniel Bryan didn’t only succumb to an attack by the Wyatt Family, he became one of them. Wrestling in a long coverall outfit reminiscent of the other members and even Michael Myers from Halloween, Bryan had many convinced he had joined the cult-like family for good. A Mattel WWE figure representing this would immortalize a dark time for him.

Money in the Bank Winner Daniel Bryan with jacket in Mattel WWE form!

Money in the Bank Winner Daniel Bryan with jacket in Mattel WWE form!

The look that began it all, Daniel Bryan’s confidence began to heat up as did his presence and the course of his actions. He sported a leather jacket and short haired, tight bearded attire on his way to the ring, ready to strike and capture the World Heavyweight Championship at any moment. The jacket and briefcase would make for two sought after accessories that wrestling figure fans would covet. A short haired look before the ‘YES’ and ‘NO’ days would also add to Bryan’s classic style figure.

Daniel Bryan Mattel WWE Figure with 'Respect the Beard' Shirt!

Daniel Bryan Mattel WWE Figure with ‘Respect the Beard’ Shirt!

Even Mr. McMahon can see that Daniel Bryan’s popularity is a force to be reckoned with. Pointing to the sky and leading fans along with chants of agreement, Bryan began wearing a ‘Respect the Beard’ shirt around the time of his WWE Championship win (and loss) at Summerslam 2013. The shirt cemented Bryan’s place as a top WWE Superstar with more than just a catch phrase, but a complete and total image. The attire underneath the shirt could no doubt be based on his match with John Cena and his subsequent match with Randy Orton.

Modern Day Mattel WWE Daniel Bryan!

Modern Day Mattel WWE Daniel Bryan!

Daniel Bryan has worn wrestling tights with more of a reddish-maroon base these days, making a brighter color his style. With his long hair, sometimes messily combed back and big ol’ beard, his modern day look into 2014 is a clear composite of all Daniel Bryan’s qualities. With dragons still included and sheer wrestling ability to boot, his nickname ‘The American Dragon’ is extremely fitting. A new figure could be based on his appearance at Royal Rumble 2014 or even better, a close look at his likely WrestleMania XXX appearance! Daniel Bryan is in the WWE for good, making his mark and whether ‘upper management’ likes it or not, becoming one of the most popular WWE Superstars the world has ever seen.

Four WrestleMania Staples…Commemorated in Mattel WWE Form!

When you think of WrestleMania, many illustrious names come to mind. To celebrate WrestleMania XXX, Mattel has chosen four of those names to release in a special Mattel WWE Series set that are synonymous in the thoughts of many with WrestleMania. The set will include:

John Cena in Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series!

John Cena in Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series!

The inclusion of John Cena is no surprise as his WrestleMania success has overshadowed that of many of his peers. Having won World Championships at the big event multiple times, John Cena is a WrestleMania staple and looks to continue similar success at WrestleMania XXX.

(First Look) The Undertaker in Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series!

(First Look) The Undertaker in Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series!

Perhaps the most successful WrestleMania participant ever, The Undertaker carries the longest running WrestleMania streak. At 21-0, The Deadman has been participating almost as long as the event has existed and looks to bring the number to 22-0 at WrestleMania XXX.

The Rock in Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series!

The Rock in Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series!

The Rock has been ‘Just Bringing It’ to WrestleMania since the Attitude Era with a unique brand of no nonsense ass kicking and big mouthed boasting. His final appearance was at WrestleMania 29 after suffering a loss from John Cena but it would be a surprise to none for him to return and swing up, taking him back to The Great One status.

Brock Lesnar in Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series!

Brock Lesnar in Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Series!

The ‘Next Big Thing’ Brock Lesnar is a Beast by nature and one of the baddest men on the planet. His size, strength and agility are unparalleled and his iconic name and look make him a force to be reckoned with. He hasn’t had much success at WrestleMania in recent years but he is so powerful and so unique that his name always comes up in the WrestleMania conversation. Look for Brock to make a big impact at ‘Mania this year.

The Animal Returns? Batista Back in Mattel WWE Form?

The wrestling rumor mill is always busy this time a year as the WWE Royal Rumble is only about a month from Christmas and it’s always filled with ideas and thoughts as to who would surprise the WWE Universe and show up for a shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Recently, ‘The Animal’ Batista has been rumored to be making a return to the WWE after an almost 4 year absence. Here are two of his most popular Mattel WWE figures and another which could hint towards his return:

 

Mattel WWE Series 1 Batista!

Mattel WWE Series 1 Batista!

Batista was a big part of the Mattel WWE Series launch, as seen here in his Series 1 wrestling action figure. With tattoos accurate to the time and some bright, classy red trunks, Batista was showcased as one of the star members of the WWE roster.

Mattel WWE Elite 6 Batista!

Mattel WWE Elite 6 Batista!

In Elite 6, Batista came back with a bad attitude and more tattoos. Wearing too-cool-for-school sunglasses, Batista’s final Elite figure before leaving the WWE was rude, crude, and exclaimed that basketballs don’t hold grudges. This has been Batista’s most sought after Mattel WWE action figure.

Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Batista vs. Brock Lesnar!

Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Batista vs. Brock Lesnar!

To commemorate WrestleMania XXX, Mattel released this Batista vs. Brock Lesnar ‘Fantasy Matchup’ Battle Pack showcasing a possible fight between The Animal and The Beast. Though Brock sports a classic look, Batista appears as though he never left and is ready to step back into the ring. The timing may be coincidental, but it seems as though Batista’s return to the WWE is imminent!

Could The Ultimate Warrior Be Inducted Into the WWE Hall of Fame?!

The Ultimate Warrior made a surprise appearance to promote his inclusion in the WWE2K14 video game, sparking rumors of the end of a long time feud with Vince McMahon and a return, in some capacity to the WWE. Warrior hopefuls have enjoyed his appearance in the game and a multitude of Mattel WWE action figures in his likeness, but some are holding out for a surprise Royal Rumble entrance or even a WWE Hall of Fame induction.
