Is Batista Getting the Right Reaction From the WWE Universe?

Mattel WWE Royal Rumble 2014 Batista Wrestling Figure!

Batista returned to the WWE just in time to participate in the 2014 Royal Rumble. The WWE Universe seemed underwhelmed by his return as he set his sights on the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and looked to send a message to the rest of the WWE locker room by taking out Alberto Del Rio. Some were very excited, but many felt it wasn’t the explosive return they were looking for. Regardless, Batista made it clear he was in the WWE to stay for the time being.

Mattel WWE Series 37 Batista Wrestling Figure!

Mattel WWE Series 37 Batista Wrestling Figure!

Before leaving the WWE, Batista had a storied career, competing at WrestleMania multiple times and becoming WWE Champion. The Mattel WWE Series 37 version of Batista celebrates WrestleMania heritage and calls back to a simpler time when Batista didn’t sport many tattoos, had just given up being a deacon and followed behind his longer standing companions in Evolution. Here is an appearance from one of his first WrestleManias as ‘The Animal’ complete with trunks stating the like and black strapped boots.

Mattel WWE 2014 Return Batista Wrestling Figure!

Mattel WWE 2014 Return Batista Wrestling Figure!

Batista wore a very cool, skin tight white and red track jacket, grey pants and sunglasses upon his WWE return in 2014. A Mattel WWE figure in plain clothes is mostly not in the cards according to the Mattel WWE Design Team, however they may consider the possibility as the return outfits of many wrestlers are usual memorable to the WWE Universe. In addition, Batista destroyed Alberto Del Rio when wearing the same outfit so fans will most likely never forget it.

Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Batista vs. Brock Lesnar!

Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Batista vs. Brock Lesnar!

Just in time for WrestleMania XXX, Batista returned to the Mattel WWE line in a Battle Pack with Brock Lesnar as a ‘fantasy match-up.’ With accurate tattoos and a heavy beard, The Animal faces off with The Beast in a match that the WWE Universe anticipates at some point in the career of both staple wrestlers. This is perfect timing as it is in line with the actual return of Batista to the WWE so fans will have The Animal available.

Mattel WWE Royal Rumble 2014 Batista Wrestling Figure!

Mattel WWE Royal Rumble 2014 Batista Wrestling Figure!

No doubt eventually slated for release, a Mattel WWE version of Batista winning the 2014 Royal Rumble is likely to be a desire of wrestling figure fans who both like and dislike Batista. His red ring shoes, black trunks and new physique are enough to get wrestling figure fans talking, but the WWE Universe as a whole did not react well to his Royal Rumble win. The question remains, what does the WWE Universe want from The Animal? Are they looking for a hero to change the landscape of the WWE, or have they find another enemy for the heroes they are hoping to have more of an impact?

The Future Possibility Of a Mattel WWE Kurt Angle Figure

Mattel WWE Eurocontinental Champion Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure!

Kurt Angle is an absolute wrestling legend that no wrestling fan on the planet disputes in any way. After putting on five star matches in both WWE and TNA, as time moves on and injuries pile up, Kurt Angle is closer to retirement than ever before and wrestling fans will no doubt be sad to see the Olympic gold medalist’s career come to an end. But his involvement in the wrestling business will most likely never end as one of the best big mouths in the history of wrestling will always have a place and presence. Kurt Angle has made it clear he feels he will one day wrestle for the WWE once again and the WWE Universe would welcome him with open arms. Mattel WWE wrestling figure fans would be even more excited at the possibility of versions of Kurt Angle wrestling figures from throughout his career.

Mattel WWE Eurocontinental Champion Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure!

Mattel WWE Eurocontinental Champion Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure!

Perhaps Kurt Angle’s most popular and well known phase ever came during the WWE ‘Attitude Era’ when he held both the WWE Intercontinental and WWE European championships at once, deeming himself the ‘Eurocontinental Champion.’ Constantly at odds with the WWE Universe, the rest of the locker room and the WWE Champion at the time, Kurt would make it clear that he would stop at nothing to wear all the WWE Championships he could, and they meant as much to him as his Olympic gold medals did. A Mattel WWE figure of this version of Kurt Angle should be most likely a certainty.

Mattel WWE Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure With Wig!

Mattel WWE Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure With Wig!

Many fans know Kurt Angle for his wrestling ability but many more know him for his comedic, entertaining wrestling chops. When he lost a Hair vs. Hair match to Edge, Kurt Angle refused to let the WWE Universe in on his new haircut. Because of this, he wore an obvious wig underneath wrestling headgear to the ring each week, assuming the WWE Universe would be none the wiser. His attires at the time were beginning to become more colorful, so a Mattel WWE figure including those attires and a removable wig and wrestling headgear accessory may provide exactly the type of unique feature that Mattel WWE wrestling figure fans are used to.

Undisputed and World Heavyweight Champion Mattel WWE Kurt Angle!

Undisputed and World Heavyweight Champion Mattel WWE Kurt Angle!

Kurt Angle transitioned more into a power wrestling role during his final WWE appearance, capturing World Heavyweight Championship and even Undisputed WWE Championship gold. His American themed singlets and growing physique would prove for a strong, focused Kurt Angle that would seen become one of the faces of the ECW brand before his WWE departure. Many WWE fans remember this unstoppable version of Kurt Angle for bringing an intensity to wrestling that was beginning to be otherwise overlooked.

Modern Day Mattel WWE Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure!

Modern Day Mattel WWE Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure!

As Kurt Angle hasn’t made a WWE appearance in almost 10 years, his TNA career can be the only thing by which WWE fans can judge and guess what a Mattel WWE figure would look like. Kurt hasn’t missed a beat since leaving the WWE, putting on stellar matches in TNA and continuing to showcase red, white and blue themed outfits that offer a variety for Angle’s personality. A modern day Mattel WWE Kurt Angle wrestling figure would depend on if Angle does in fact participate in a match upon returning to the WWE. He is a future WWE Hall of Famer, no doubt, but having one more match in the WWE remains an unanswered question that will be answered sooner rather than later.

A Mattel WWE Stephanie McMahon Figure Finally in the Works?

Mattel WWE Stephanie McMahon - Member of The Authority!

As most Mattel WWE wrestling figure fans know, the appearance of a WWE Superstar on television is extremely important when asking the question of a possible Mattel WWE wrestling figure release. Stephanie McMahon, while noticeably absent from WWE television for most of Mattel’s WWE wrestling figure releases, has become more of a fixture since becoming part of ‘The Authority’ that aids Randy Orton in his winnings and suppresses Daniel Bryan. It isn’t impossible that fans can soon have a Mattel WWE Stephanie McMahon to wreak authoritative havoc on their wrestling figure collections or even step foot in the ring to hold down the family business!

Jakks WWE Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley and Triple H - McMahon-Helmsley Era 2-Pack!

Jakks WWE Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley and Triple H – McMahon-Helmsley Era 2-Pack!

Originally produced by Jakks Pacific as a Ringside Collectibles Exclusive, the WWE McMahon-Helmsley Era 2-Pack featured a returning Triple H and Stephanie McMahon during her stint as WWE Women’s Champion! Stephanie wore a white shirt bearing her name and initials in the wrestling figure. With a scale and size extremely similar to Mattel, those who absolutely need a Stephanie McMahon as part of their WWE wrestling figure collection could look to this figure as a temporary placeholder, or a replacement if a Stephanie McMahon Mattel WWE figure is never made.

Mattel WWE Stephanie McMahon in Wrestling Attire!

Mattel WWE Stephanie McMahon in Wrestling Attire!

During her participation and life-long dedication to the WWE, Stephanie McMahon has laced her boots to wrestle numerous times, here at WWE Vengeance in 2003. Her wrestling ability is looked at amongst fans as part of her bloodline and genetic, so it would be no surprise for Mattel to make a WWE wrestling figure of Stephanie McMahon actually ready for a wrestling match. Here she sports a dark outfit and is ring ready with elbow pads and high wrestling boots.

Mattel WWE Stephanie McMahon Figure in Referee Attire!

Mattel WWE Stephanie McMahon Figure in Referee Attire!

A Mattel WWE wrestling figure referee is mostly missing and Stephanie McMahon has certainly served as referee of a match before. A Mattel WWE referee Stephanie McMahon would provide any wrestling figure match with a watchful eye, particularly during a Randy Orton or Triple H match. She can be trusted by some, but being a McMahon the WWE Universe never knows what tricks she may have up her sleeve!

Mattel WWE Stephanie McMahon - Member of The Authority!

Mattel WWE Stephanie McMahon – Member of The Authority!

Stephanie McMahon’s most recent and perhaps her now most famous look is her suited, stern and confident appearance as a member of The Authority! Stephanie wears a perfectly fitted suit, offering the WWE Universe food for thought on her decision making and keeping absolutely sure that the WWE is under the control of her and her husband, Triple H. This would make the perfect Mattel WWE wrestling figure for a general manager, owner of another wrestling brand or simple authority figure for all Mattel WWE wrestling figure collectors! Stephanie McMahon is an empowered, strong woman that would absolutely make a powerful addition to any wrestling figure collection.

The Wyatt Family…a Thorn in the Side of John Cena!

Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt!

Since debuting in the WWE, the Wyatt Family have shown their strength, power, and the tightness of their group. A family like no other, they made an initial impact by taking out WWE Superstars like Kane, Kofi Kingston and The Miz. They may have been bested by Daniel Bryan but to keep the statistics in their favor they have gone after arguably the greatest possible challenge the WWE has to offer. That challenge goes by the name of John Cena.

Mattel WWE Series 39 John Cena!

Mattel WWE Series 39 John Cena!

John Cena, here in Mattel WWE Series 39, has spent his time trying to have an effect on the travesty that is Randy Orton gaining the WWE World Heavyweight Championship through cheating, but recently the Wyatt Family have forced him to realign his sights and take them on because of numerous sneak attacks. Cena is unclear as to why Bray Wyatt has chosen him as a target and it has made his main objectives difficult. John Cena can no longer look at Bray Wyatt as simply a nuisance and must treat him with the respect of a face to face challenger.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Luke Harper and Erick Rowan!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Luke Harper and Erick Rowan!

Helping Bray Wyatt act out his sneaky ways are the other members of the Wyatt Family, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan. Luke Harper and Erick Rowan will receive their first Mattel WWE wrestling figures in Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28. They are a fixture in the tag team division, have shown that they can suffer defeat and bounce back infinitely stronger and best of all for Bray Wyatt, both men will do his bidding at the drop of a hat. Harper and Rowan are invaluable parts of Bray Wyatt’s strategy and are no doubt highly sought after for Mattel WWE wrestling figure fans.

Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt!

Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt!

The Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt action figure will be the first time the leader of the Wyatt family has seen himself in wrestling figure form. A miniature plastic idol is perfect for the leader of this cult-like family as they slowly but surely do their best to take over the WWE. Bray Wyatt’s headsculpt, accurate tattoos, white pants and black and white wrestling shows prove him to be the type of leader that is simple but effective in his actions all the way down to how he dresses. Wrestling figure fans will no doubt look to re-enact the Sister Abigail on unsuspecting opponents, knocking them out and planting a kiss of certain doom on their foreheads.

The Wyatt Family will finally be released as Mattel WWE figures, and most wrestling figure fans will no doubt have a John Cena figure available to fight off the oncoming attacks of the Mattel WWE wrestling figure world’s newest and most formidable foes, Bray Wyatt, Erick Rowan and Luke Harper.

Randy Orton Has A Target On His Back…Will He Survive??

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 27 Randy Orton vs. Daniel Bryan!

Due the current wrestling landscape, an often overlooked conversation is the survival of the WWE World Heavyweight Champion as he tries to avoid a loss to any oncoming challengers. The idea is overlooked even more with Randy Orton, who fans and members of the locker room alike feel cheated his way to a title reign because of a partnership with Triple H and the rest of the WWE corporate body. While many potential contenders including the Elimination Chamber participants and anyone else looking to get a shot at the gold and their struggles are often discussed by the WWE Universe, the struggle for Randy Orton to fend them off is an even greater one.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Randy Orton vs. Daniel Bryan!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Randy Orton vs. Daniel Bryan!

Perhaps what began all the modern day struggles for The Viper was his Money in the Bank briefcase win at WWE Money In The Bank 2013. After making his way up the ladder with all of his opponents laid out, he grabbed his chance at the WWE Championship, used it on Daniel Bryan with the help of Triple H at Summerslam 2013 and didn’t look back until he was the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Now, the playing field is even smaller and those looking to dethrone him, especially Daniel Bryan who he took advantage of to begin with, are ready to make repeated attempts until it happens. Here, Randy Orton and Daniel Bryan call back to their Summerslam 2013 interaction in Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28.

Mattel WWE Elite 21 Randy Orton!

Mattel WWE Elite 21 Randy Orton!

Randy Orton’s ability and strength cannot be denied despite his cheating ways and the Mattel WWE figures that reflect that best come in the Elite style. In Mattel WWE Elite 21, Randy Orton sports an RKO t-shirt and superior articulation, offering his finishing move of the RKO out of nowhere and helping wrestling figure fans re-create his intensity working up to that move or his beautiful standing dropkicks.

Mattel WWE Series 37 Randy Orton!

Mattel WWE Series 37 Randy Orton!

Randy Orton has been a staple at WrestleMania since debuting in the WWE and perhaps his greatest personal challenge is a thirst for participating in the WWE’s main event. The WWE Universe has seen him suffer defeats and earn triumphs at WrestleMania, but with his current interactions and friendship with Triple H his participation at WrestleMania XXV comes to mind. In Mattel WWE Series 37, the WrestleMania Heritage series flashes back to a time when Randy Orton and Triple H were at odds with plenty of personal attacks. Randy Orton, as WWE World Heavyweight champion, can truly trust no one, not even the person aiding him in his attempts at glory.

Mattel WWE Super Strikers Randy Orton!

Mattel WWE Super Strikers Randy Orton!

The Mattel WWE Super Strikers Randy Orton shows the true darkness behind the eyes of the Apex Predator, with a face of anger, power and explosive frustration. When the wrestling figures legs are squeezed together, a double hook move can be performed but perhaps more telling about the release is the inclusion of a chair. Randy Orton will go to any lengths to get what he wants and this figure is the perfect example of that willingness to gain.

Eva Marie A Soon To Be Mattel WWE Wrestling Figure!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling Figure in Total Divas Attire!

Love her or hate her, Eva Marie has the WWE Universe and those beyond talking after starring in the E! Television show ‘Total Divas.’ While some wrestling fans question her ability, virtually no one questions her striking looks or her red hair. On an episode of Total Divas, Eva Marie was scanned for a future Mattel WWE action figure by Mattel WWE designers, so the question of her release is not if, but when! Here are a few attires that many fans would see as perfect for a Mattel WWE Eva Marie wrestling figure.

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Figure In White Wrestling Attire!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Figure In White Wrestling Attire!

Eva Marie’s most often seen wrestling attire is a white and black style that is inspired by wrestling singlets, complete with an opening for her two-piece outfit underneath to show through. Her tall black boots and silver and black arm bands set her up for a butt-kicking look. This is the outfit that Eva Marie will most likely appear in as she has appeared numerous times wearing it in a WWE and NXT ring!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling Figure in Green Wrestling Attire!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling Figure in Green Wrestling Attire!

Eva Marie’s green and gold wrestling attire is more in line with the style of other WWE Divas, showing off her mid-section and leaving plenty of room for her to be agile and attack. Here, she takes a selfie to show off her red hair, red lips and ability to look amazing despite good or bad wrestling ability.

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling FIgure in Red and Black Wrestling Attire!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling FIgure in Red and Black Wrestling Attire!

 

Eva Marie has appeared numerous times with her ‘friends’ the Bella Twins, taking after their in ring style but no doubt making sure everyone and anyone knows she is an individual. Her red, hiked tights and polka dot top keep the eyes of the WWE Universe locked on her performance and separate her from Brie and Nikki Bella. This is the dark horse choice for a Mattel WWE Eva Marie wrestling figure as it appeared sparsely but was very memorable.

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling Figure in Total Divas Attire!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling Figure in Total Divas Attire!

An unexpected choice but not an impossibility, Mattel could decide to release an Eva Marie action figure with a dress featured on her hit show Total Divas. This tight, striped dress is just one example of the many styles and wardrobe choices Eva Marie makes on Total Divas, and offering Mattel non-wrestling attires in case wrestling figure fans prefer to leave Eva Marie as a valet instead of an in-ring Superstar. Whatever choice Mattel decides to go with, the first Mattel WWE Eva Marie wrestling action figure will be a hot commodity in more ways than one.

Kevin Nash Makes Royal Rumble Return…Could He Return to Mattel WWE Figures?

Kevin Nash has now not once, not twice, but thrice managed to surprise the WWE Universe with his unexpected appearance. Once showing up as Diesel in the Royal Rumble, he shocked the world after an absence for years from WWE wrestling. His return no doubt initiated the release of the Mattel WWE Diesel wrestling figure available in Mattel WWE Elite 16:

Mattel WWE Elite 16 Diesel!

Mattel WWE Elite 16 Diesel!

The popularity of the Diesel figure was unprecedented for a classic Mattel WWE appearance, including a WWE Championship, removable vest and spot on likeness of Diesel during his WWE peak. With full articulation and molded pants with tassels, wrestling figure fans had finally gotten the chance to grab Kevin Nash in a form they had been previously only been treated to a couple of times. The excitement was short lived, however, as the figure was packaged lightly with the availability of ‘The Outsiders’ Mattel WWE Elite 16 Kevin Nash wrestling figure:

Mattel WWE Elite 16 Kevin Nash!

Mattel WWE Elite 16 Kevin Nash!

The Mattel WWE Elite 16 Kevin Nash portrayed Big Sexy during his WCW peak, complete with bright red Outsiders outfit, black tassels and a spray painted WCW Championship! The figure also presented a completely separate head scan for Nash with long, blonde trademark locks. Wrestling figure fans made clear their desire for both versions but with their short packed release and difficult availability, only few fans were able to get ahold of the now sought after and difficult to find figure.

The idea still stands that Mattel WWE figure collectors still want more of Kevin Nash and aside from his many classic looks, his modern day appearances may prove more desirable. After showing up more times than most classic superstars during the recent WWE timeline, Kevin Nash’s modern day look is something wrestling figure fans would enjoy in Mattel WWE figure form. His return in 2011, from his canceled match with CM Punk to his Sledgehammer ladder match with Triple H at TLC 2011, would make for an excellent template for a modern day Kevin Nash figure. Most likely his attire would be based on that very slugfest with Triple H, where Nash sported long, black hair.

Modern day Mattel WWE Elite Kevin Nash from TLC 2011?

Modern day Mattel WWE Elite Kevin Nash from TLC 2011?

This Kevin Nash could sport an angry head sculpt, come with a ladder or sledge hammer accessory (or both!) and include Nash’s singlet and leather pants wrestling attire design from the actual event. It would have to represent his entire run after his Summerslam 2011 return, and would do so nicely as most of his other appearances came in plain clothes!

Mattel WWE Elite Royal Rumble 2014 Return Kevin Nash?

Mattel WWE Elite Royal Rumble 2014 Return Kevin Nash?

Kevin Nash returned at the 2014 Royal Rumble, surprising fans yet again and throwing around some WWE Superstars before suffering elimination. Noticeably more determined and agile, Nash was sporting a new short brown haircut with only one elbow pad, giving new possibilities and asking new questions as to whether or not he would return to the WWE to once again try to ‘stick the winner.’ Big Daddy Cool Kevin Nash remains a sought after Mattel WWE action figure, between those that have already been produced and those that may show up in the future.

OHHH YOU DIDN’T KNOW? Tag Team Champions The New Age Outlaws, Reuniting in Mattel WWE Form!

Mattel WWE New Age Outlaws Package Deal!

Just in time for Valentine’s Day as people across the world think of the greatest pairings ever, many WWE Universe members are struck by the partnership of the New Age Outlaws, Road Dogg Jesse James and ‘Bad Ass’ Billy Gunn. After re-capturing the WWE Tag Team Championships following a 15 year absence, the duo, who may or may not be at the beck and call of COO Triple H, are taking the locker room by storm. Aside from a brief appearance on RAW’s 20th Anniversary and a quick entry into the 2013 Royal Rumble by Road Dogg, the New Age Outlaws have been mostly inactive in the ring since disbanding so many years ago. However, they are proving consistently that they still have what it takes to roll with the young superstars they are defending their championships again. Now, they finally have Mattel WWE figures for fans to re-enact their favorite modern day New Age Outlaws moments.

Mattel WWE Elite 26 Road Dogg Jesse James!

Mattel WWE Elite 26 Road Dogg Jesse James!

The Road Dogg Jesse James blows the roof off of any arena he enters, beckoning the WWE Universe to the ‘Dogg House’ and rhyming his way through a self-introduction to one of the greatest Tag Teams in the history of wrestling. His Mattel WWE figure includes a hat, a D-Generate Road Dogg t-shirt and a classic style D-Generation X t-shirt. With a spot on likeness, pants that bear the D-Generation X style logos that only Road Dogg can pull off, this figure comes ring ready for both classic collections and modern day collections.

Mattel WWE Elite 27 Bad Ass Billy Gunn!

Mattel WWE Elite 27 Bad Ass Billy Gunn!Mattel WWE Elite 27 Bad Ass Billy Gunn!

Also entering the Mattel WWE world is the ‘Bad Ass’ Billy Gunn, also affectionately known as ‘Mr. Ass.’ WWE’s resident ass man gets his first figure treatment in over 7 years, throwing back to his original style during the ‘Attitude Era’ but presenting a modern sentiment with interchangable headbands and two separate D-Generation X t-shirts. His trunks bear plenty of lips symbols and his knee pads are marked with ‘BA,’ which can only stand for ‘Bad Ass!’ The green color and white boots are a style choice Billy Gunn has made famous, making mothers everywhere turn their heads as he pulled his shorts down just enough to be inappropriate when entering the ring. His figure will not have this feature, but he is still just as much of a degenerate.

Mattel WWE New Age Outlaws Package Deal!

Mattel WWE New Age Outlaws Package Deal!

The New Age Outlaws have finally been immortalized in Mattel WWE plastic, but at what cost? The once happy-go-lucky rebels still maintain their wild personalities but carry out the biddings of the controlling, condescending and downright oppressive COO, their fellow D-Generation X member, Triple H. Could their WWE Tag Team Championship opportunity (they did win fair and square, at least) have come from strings being pulled by their friend in the highest possible place? No one knows except the members of D-Generation X themselves, but seeing how quickly the New Age Outlaws can jump to the defense of their old friend smells a little fishy.

Is CM Punk Gone From WWE? What Does This Mean For His Mattel WWE Figures?

The week after Royal Rumble 2014, speculation has run rampant on Twitter, Facebook and amongst the WWE Universe and beyond as to whether or not CM Punk is still with the WWE. Rumor has it that CM Punk, unhappy with his Royal Rumble loss and stature in the company, decided to leave the WWE early with a contract expiring in July and his absence from Monday Night RAW has further fueled this speculation. No one, including CM Punk himself, has made an official statement on the matter but rumors of fights with Vince McMahon, tension with Triple H and more have made people immensely curious about what is going on with the wrestling superstar they consider The Best In The World. Wrestling figure fans have already begun to speculate as to what this means for Mattel WWE CM Punk action figures and their future releases. Could Mattel WWE CM Punk figures be a thing of the past? Here are a few of the best Mattel WWE CM Punk figures so far:

Mattel WWE Straight Edge Society CM Punk Exclusive!

Mattel WWE Straight Edge Society CM Punk Exclusive!

The Ringside Collectibles Exclusive Mattel WWE Straight Edge Society CM Punk featured camouflage Straight Edge Society garb for the Straight Edge Superstar. Complete with a removable mask and an extremely detailed bald headsculpt, this CM Punk was hugely sought after by Mattel WWE figure fans, sold quickly and remains a hot item to this day. Celebrating Punk’s time in the Straight Edge Society, it captured the essence of his purely evil turn and cult-like feuds with Rey Mysterio and Big Show.

Mattel WWE Elite 1 CM Punk!

Mattel WWE Elite 1 CM Punk!

The Mattel WWE Elite 1 CM Punk, his first released Mattel WWE Elite during the launch of the Mattel WWE line, featured CM Punk’s post-Money In the Bank win look, confidence and edge. The grey and yellow outfit featured in this figure, unlike so many other CM Punk outfits, has yet to be replicated and remains unique and unchanged. Also included, now a thing of the past in the Mattel WWE figure line, was a cotton-style cloth t-shirt.

Mattel WWE Elite 11 CM Punk!

Mattel WWE Elite 11 CM Punk!

After a forceful takeover of The Nexus from Wade Barrett, CM Punk put his leadership skills to good use and ran the group into the ground while using it as a springboard for his own success. Fans are often reminded of CM Punk’s time in the Royal Rumble surrounded by Nexus members and his infamous “Pipe Bomb” speech that took place during his time as Nexus leader. The Mattel WWE Elite 11 figure captured both his time in the group and his transition to mega superstar, complete with Nexus armband and Nesus t-shirt, both removable so wrestling figure fans could easily have their CM Punk abandon the group if he needed to.

Mattel WWE Elite 20 CM Punk!

Mattel WWE Elite 20 CM Punk!

The Mattel WWE Elite 20 CM Punk was monumental for Mattel WWE wrestling figure fans as it included a new, slick-haired headsculpt and accurate, colorful tattoos that were finally realized as intended. This figure also included the Mattel WWE Spinner championship, commemorating CM Punk’s monumental WWE Championship reign that lasted over a year and ended at the hands of The Rock.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 25 CM Punk vs. The Undertaker!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 25 CM Punk vs. The Undertaker!

What could possibly be CM Punk’s last great feud in the WWE, he faced off with Undertaker at WrestleMania 29, angrily trying to end what he considered to be a self indulgent and silly WrestleMania streak carried by the Undertaker. Going so far as to make jokes with the urn of the Undertaker’s late father Paul Bearer, CM Punk reached into the mind of Undertaker to pull out a loss. He didn’t find it, but his memorable elbow drop on to Undertaker and his ongoing grouchy demeanor made the face off extremely memorable.

Mattel WWE Ringside Collectibles ECW CM Punk Exclusive!

Mattel WWE Ringside Collectibles ECW CM Punk Exclusive!

The latest planned Mattel WWE ECW CM Punk Ringside Collectibles Exclusive figure was revealed by Mattel and Ringside Collectibles at Ringside Fest 2013. A happier, smiling CM Punk included red trunks and boots, a microphone, heart t-shirt and ECW Championship from a time when the new Superstar was doing his best to make a name for himself in the WWE. Many die-hard wrestling fans had already taken to CM Punk, but he slowly but surely made his way atop the WWE ladder, and it began while in ECW. The fate of this Mattel WWE Ringside Collectibles Exclusive ECW CM Punk figure is currently unknown, but upon its release, it will be a fitting tribute as the start of a career in the WWE that many have not wanted to see end.

Christian to Return to WWE Smackdown!

WWE Superstar Christian has been plagued with injuries since his World Heavyweight Championship and Intercontinental Championship runs in the WWE, injuring his shoulder and most recently receiving a concussion at the hands of Randy Orton and a vicious attack by The Shield. Since being absent, however, he has welcomed the birth of a child and taken newfound inspiration from this into his quest for one more match. Time will tell as to what kind of impact his return to the WWE roster will make, but the WWE Universe is eager to find out as he makes his way to Smackdown, some arguably even more eager than they were awaiting the return of Batista.

Mattel WWE Series 36 Christian!

Mattel WWE Series 36 Christian!

The most recent and insanely accurate Christian featured in Mattel WWE Series 36 has a spot on headsculpt, scruff and blonde hair just like the real Captain Charisma. With green and black ring pants, his outfit pops with color and he’s the perfect basic Mattel WWE figure for those looking to add the Captain to their collection who already haven’t. This will be the figure wrestling figure fans worldwide use to re-enact Christian’s return.

Mattel WWE Rumblers Christian and Sheamus!

Mattel WWE Rumblers Christian and Sheamus!

Mattel’s now defunct WWE Rumblers set included miniature versions of favorite WWE Superstars and Legends, and Christian is lucky enough to count on both sides of that description. Here, he is featured in modern day attire with Sheamus, teaching the red-headed Irish beast a lesson in respect and learning to earn your place in the WWE and working hard for it. If fans remember his feud with Sheamus, Christian did this by complaining and sneaking his way around defeats to the big brawler. Fans can fondly remember the comedy of Christian’s antics that were a thorn in the side of Sheamus with this Rumblers set.

Mattel WWE Elite 20 Christian!

Mattel WWE Elite 20 Christian!

Mattel WWE Elite 20 saw one of the first Attitude Era flashbacks with this old school style Christian, complete with mesh shirt, yellow ring pants and black boots. This Christian also included sunglasses (a solid yellow and clear yellow variant) that both Edge and Christian made famous during the Attitude Era. Christian is a pioneer of the Tables, Ladders and Chairs match that is  now a staple of WWE programming and along with his tag team partner Edge, redefined the ladder match and brought the prestige of the WWE Tag Team Championships to a new level. This figure represents his pique as a 9 time tag team champion and captures one of the true innovators of the duck face. With Christian’s return imminent, his quest for one more match will more than likely be captured. Now all he has to do is capture the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
