Jeff Jarrett Discusses The Fact That He Doesn't Have A Mattel Action Figure

On the latest episode of his "My World" podcast, WWE Hall of Famer and current AEW star Jeff Jarrett answered several questions from fans. He was asked why he didn't get a WWE action figure even though he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, which prompted him to reveal that Mattel was close to creating one of him.

"It's really cut and dry," said Jarrett. "Man, oh man, we got really close, so much so I think Mattel jumped the gun. Now, what ... that was about a year ago or something like that, but I don't have an agreement in place with them. It's just truly that simple, I don't have a deal."

News about Jarrett getting a new WWE figure was first released in July 2022 during Comic-Con and the figure was going to be part of WWE's Ultimate Edition line. According to WrestlingFigureNews.com, the figure was canceled in November, and it happened around the same time that Jarrett signed with All Elite Wrestling.

He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2018 alongside Goldberg, Ivory, Hillbilly Jim, Mark Henry, and The Dudley Boyz.

Since being with AEW, Jarrett has aligned himself with Sonjay Dutt, Jay Lethal, and Satnam Singh. This past weekend, he and Lethal were unsuccessful in their attempt to win the AEW Tag Team titles from FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) at Double or Nothing.
