That was every McFarlane figure. And it seems every figure the Four Horseman worked on after they left McFarlane. Pretty to look at but break if you sneeze. The four horsemen designed MOTU and Toybiz Marvel stuff has held up just fine for me, even if the overall designs can be a bit 'of their time'. MOTU was the one I was mostly referring to. I have a huge MOTU collection and the 200x stuff the FH did has the most repair jobs.

Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff in TNA. Prior to their arrival, the company was finally in the black after years of running at a loss, they were getting okay ratings for Spike and all the changes made due to those two completely undid that. People defended them at the time, claiming Hogan would promote the heck of of Impact and he proceeded to do none of that, seemingly embarassed to plug the company he was effectively in charge of. I take pride in shaking Dixie Carter by the hand in 2009 whilst warning her that Hogan would ruin her company.

Yeah, I'm almost positive Cleopatra and Julius Caesar may have been dead in 1993....... As a kid I took everything WWF/WCW did literally. So when I asked my parents who Caesar and Cleopatra were, one of them told me they were from so long ago. I told them they are on the PPV. They told me it's not really them, because they are dead. I told them otherwise. WWF was real as anything to me back then. Also, Kiss had busts of the four guys, about 2 feet tall. Not sure what they were made out of. On the surface it looks like heavy duty material but when they break it reminds me of this ceramic like material Frank's Nursery used to sell for Christmas villages that you could paint. So kind of cheap. I sold all four on ebay to four different people. Two broke completely in half. Gene and the guys seem like they put their name on everything and costs are always cut for the sake of getting it done. I worked for a library in the early 2000s. One Gene book had "autograph copy" on it. My friend told me the signature was a known autopen. The friend was Todd Fulkerson. Great guy! I didn't buy Caesar and Cleopatra, but I did think it really was Bill Clinton in the crowd at Wrestlemania X. For the OP, the WWE was banking on Jinder Mahal to be a mega-star in India, and his flop in the US would be worth it for opening the market in that country. India didn't care either, and Jinder dropped the belt to AJ about a week before their India tour, which they were building to him getting a huge homecoming.

What’s funny is that even in the magazine when they covered the results of WM10, they admitted that the Bill Clinton at WM10 was fake. I thought he was real.

would the entire guest host era count? not sure how the ratings were but considering how many people I know who finally tapped out on the product around there, if I had to guess that was a waste

I'd wager the Monster Truck Sumo Match drew 0 dollars and cost a fortune, especially for 95 WCW.
But it did gave us "BY THE MANY MOONS OF AMANKARA!... THE DUNGEON OF DOOM'S MONSTER TRUCK IS SUPERIOR TO HULK HOGAN'S!"
