The Dominant Brock Lesnar Cannot Be Defeated

Brock Lesnar has had what is arguably the most successful year in the history of professional wrestling. At WrestleMania XXX, he shocked the entire world and stopped The Undertaker dead in his tracks, destroying his streak and killing his WrestleMania momentum much to the chagrin of the WWE Universe. His Mattel WWE Elite 30 figure captures the version of Brock who took down the legendary streak perfectly.

This modern day, destructive Brock does not fear anyone in the WWE locker room and more importantly, does not fear a single thing on Earth. After making work of The Undertaker, he disappeared into the woods and reappeared to capture the WWE World Heavyweight Championship from John Cena. The WWE Universe was shocked once again as The Beast manhandled Cena, making him look like he  would never return from the loss. The Authority presented Brock with a new WWE World Heavyweight Championship and declared a new era had begun.

Part of Brock Lesnar’s success can most certainly be attributed to Paul Heyman, his right hand man and manager who has stood by his side every step of his dominant journey. Negotiating with anyone and everyone but making sure they know the power they are dealing with, Heyman takes no nonsense from anyone, including Triple H and Stephanie McMahon. Brock Lesnar’s partnership with Heyman and dominance have been a mainstay since his WWE debut over a decade ago, when Heyman saw the very future that they are now living out on the way.

Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman have always made a great team.

The Undisputed WWE Champion Brock Lesnar was young, dominant and not afraid to take on the likes of Hulk Hogan, Triple H or anyone who stood in his way. He was truly bringing the pain, and the Mattel WWE Brock Lesnar Here Comes the Pain Ringside Collectibles Exclusive is a perfect representation of this time. Brock was strong, undefeatable in most cases and ready for his future as a rock-solid athlete.

Here Comes the Pain Exclusive Brock Lesnar!

With no signs of stopping his monstrous career, it can be said that Brock Lesnar hit his stride when he was younger and has not stopped.

San Diego Comic-Con 2014 Mattel WWE Panel Revealed!

The Mattel WWE San Diego Comic-Con 2014 Panel!

The Mattel WWE San Diego Comic-Con 2014 Panel!

Mattel and WWE have made huge, strong showings at the San Diego Comic-Con since partnering up in 2010, and 2014 looks to be no different. With perhaps their most exciting panel ever, the 2014 San Diego Comic-Con brings top WWE Superstars and Legends to the stage and multiplies the excitement! The official statement reads:

Thursday, July 24 • 10:15am – 11:15am

Mattel and WWE: Over-the-Top-Action!
Two of the world’s top entertainment companies have teamed up for the ultimate panel at SDCC. WWE Superstars and Mattel designers will talk about the all-new WWE Network and give exclusive sneak peeks of Mattel’s upcoming WWE figure releases! Incredible guest appearances by Hulk Hogan, Daniel Bryan, Michael Cole, Paul Heyman, and you never know what else will be unveiled. This is a panel you won’t want to miss, brother!

The inclusion of Hulk Hogan opens a floodgate of questions that Mattel will hopefully (and likely) answer. With so many different iconic looks throughout his legendary career, a Mattel WWE Hulk Hogan figure comes with endless possibilities. With the nWo, Hulk Hogan’s classic runs as WWE Champion or even his return to the WWE in 2002, Hogan will have the more impact on the Mattel WWE line than arguably anyone produced as a Mattel WWE figure before him.

Daniel Bryan is currently on the WWE ‘disabled list’ but after his appearance at Money in the Bank 2014, is clearly still beloved. His appearance at SDCC 2014 is his only announced appearance for WWE in the near future, so it will give fans a chance to see him again and to check out more of his updated (and spot on) Mattel WWE figures.

Michael Cole has history with Daniel Bryan and the entire WWE Universe as they love to hate him but deep down, wouldn’t be able to live without him. With only one Mattel WWE figure to date, it’s possible that he could be announced in another line or just be showing up to give fans a hard time. Depending on which of Michael Cole’s diverse personalities we are getting, he will add an element of fun.

Paul Heyman, legendary in his own right, will likely have plenty to say about Brock Lesnar, the Undertaker, and even Daniel Bryan. With underlying conflict floating through the air, the pot will likely be stirred by Heyman and wherever he is, his ‘clients’ can’t be far behind. With two Mattel WWE figure treatments to his name, Paul Heyman can always be due for more.

Also, Mattel will be offering sneak peeks at upcoming Mattel WWE figures as they do every year. With so many amazing wrestling figures produced so far, fans still have loads of legends and modern superstars they want to see given the treatment. San Diego Comic-Con is always a big step in filling that need for collectors and fans!

Brock Lesnar…UFC Bound? Or Still a Mattel WWE Staple?

Rumors have been running rampant that the beastly Brock Lesnar has been secretly planning a return to the octagon with UFC. He has openly and publicly claimed he is retired from his MMA career and vowed never to return, but rumors of some sort of superfight including Brock are the talk of the mixed martial arts town. This may seem difficult when considering his WWE career, but fans continue to speculate. Since debuting in the WWE, Brock Lesnar has been considered one of the most feared men on the planet, and his sheer wrestling ability is a major part of that. With WWE Undisputed Championship included, The Ringside Collectibles Exclusive ‘Here Comes The Pain’ Mattel WWE Brock Lesnar action figure embodies Brock’s first and most impactful WWE run:

Since returning to the WWE, Brock Lesnar has sported an MMA-style attire, including his sponsors and logos on his shorts. Although these cannot be captured in a Mattel WWE figure due to cross-licensing issues, the shorts and the fighting spirit remain, like in Brock’s Mattel WWE Elite 19 figure. This is the current, modern day version of The Next Big Thing:

Since Brock Lesnar enjoys time away from the ring and can’t always be present after leaving UFC for a WWE return, he has pulled no punches in maintaining a representative. That representative is none other than Paul Heyman, ECW founder and best friend of the big, bad brawler. Mattel captured the likeness of their business arrangement in Mattel WWE Battle Packs 25. The first ever Mattel WWE Paul Heyman figure is included:

Only time will tell if the very private Brock Lesnar is planning a return to the UFC. Will he balance his time between both companies? Is the idea that he could return to professional fighting just hot air? One thing is certain, Mattel has given fans excellent versions of this very big, very intimidating man.

The Four Best Mattel WWE Battle Packs of 2013!

2013 was a year of tag team, match ups and managerial resurgence in the WWE. The WWE Universe has been treated to debuts of teams like Los Matadores, the strengthening of The Shield and the facing off of old rivals like John Cena and Randy Orton. It takes two to tango, as they say! Here are four of the years BEST Mattel WWE Battle Packs:

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 21 Primetime Players!

Darren Young and Titus O’Neil had a breakout year in the WWE, racking up tag team wins and proving they have what it takes to roll with the big boys! This set presented a new, updated look for D. Young and a debut figure for Titus O’Neil! Throw in a classic stop sign accessory and you’ve got yourself…Millions of Dollars!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 24 The Shield!

Roman Reigns & Seth Rollins cemented The Shield’s position in the WWE Tag Team game, capturing the titles and proving to be unstoppable. Fans were discussing Shield action figures from the moment they debuted, and it was no surprise when Mattel delivered, and did they ever deliver on the debut figures of Rollins and Reigns. Including a folding chair to add to your collection, these two were a force to be reckoned with in 2013.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 23 CM Punk vs. Vince McMahon!

Everyone remembers CM Punk holding the WWE Championship hostage in 2012 during the “Summer of Punk,” but plenty forget when he and the boss, Mr. McMahon, actually took to facing off in the ring! Mattel commemorated that in Battle Packs 23, giving both Vince McMahon and CM Punk (complete with a new facial hair style) kendo sticks to even the odds…or maybe just to sword fight with!

 

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 25 Brock Lesnar & Paul Heyman!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 25 Brock Lesnar & Paul Heyman!

Arguably the definitive ‘Paul Heyman Guy,’ Brock Lesnar holds as much respect for the ECW founder as Heyman does for Brock. With Heyman around, Brock doesn’t have to say much (other than requesting Paul say something stupid once in a while) with his best friend around to speak for him. A match made in heaven as two of the most notorious figures in wrestling history team up and Paul Heyman debuts in the Mattel WWE line.

Whether you are looking for a match up to settle a grudge, a superstar and his trusty manager or a hot tag team, Mattel WWE Battle Packs always deliver the goods.
