I was at Wal-Mart a couple hours ago, and I was browsing through the action figure aisle (I used to collect figures, but not really anymore). I come across the WWE Legends figures, I see the usual suspects there. I then came across something that made almost spit out the soda I was drinking. I saw a Legends figure of none other than...........................................
Bruno Sammartino!
Now everyone knows that Bruno totally hates WWE and wrestling as a whole these days. Why would he agree to let WWE make a figure of him? I know WWE makes figures of Bret Hart and the Warrior, but there are different circumstances there. Bruno has hated Vince McMahon and WWE for close to 20 years now, I cannot picture him allowing them to make a toy of him. Unless he's just a huge hypocrite or something. Anyway..just had to tell someone about it.

He signed a private deal with Jakks to make a figure of himself. Similar to Hart and Warrior. It's not a Legend's contract so they retain the rights to their property and its much more lucrative than the Legend's contract. WWE and Jakks have an agreement where Jakks can sign who they want for Classic Superstars Line.

The way I understand it, it's a contract that the wrestlers have with Jakks Pacific, not WWE.
Edit: Yeah what he said /\ ;D

I saw a Bobby Lashley/Orlando Jordan 2 pack action figure set at Wally World last week, it made me feel sorry for Lashley.
