With victory in the air, Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Samoa Joe to become the NXT Champion at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn II! Wowing the world around him by entering the arena with a personal violin player, Nakamura worked his Strong Style to defeat the hard hitting, massive powerhouse that is Samoa Joe and made fans out of everyone in the arena. While many in attendance were already huge Nakamura fans, now all members of the WWE Universe and the NXT fan base know the name if they didn’t before. Even more exciting is that Nakamura will debut as a Mattel WWE Elite wrestling action figure in the near future as revealed at San Diego Comic-Con 2016!

Tommy Dreamer Returns to WWE!
By Robert Mulrenin
The innovator of violence, an ECW original and someone that the Dudley Boyz can always count on, Tommy Dreamer has returned to the WWE to take on the Wyatt Family! Sporadically seen since the closing of ECW in 2010, Tommy Dreamer has been rocking and rolling on the independent scene and proving he still has plenty of fight left in him. He has appeared in the Mattel WWE wrestling action figure line only once before, partnering (or brawling, depending on your memories) with Captain Charisma, Christian, in a Mattel WWE Battle Pack:
Sporting an ECW t-shirt & creating a ‘Dual Impact,’ this has been our only treatment of Tommy Dreamer in the Mattel WWE line so far. With a spot on look and gear, we could easily see a re-production of this same figure appear in the Mattel WWE Series line. What would be more exciting, however, is seeing a new Mattel WWE Tommy Dreamer figure released with another look.
