WWE and Mattel have released a sneak peek at what could become one of their most popular figures. Taking to Twitter, WWE shared a few photos of renders and prototypes for several Superstars from RAW, SmackDown and NXT. One image in particular, however, has already captured the WWE Universe’s attention: a render of "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt.
“Mattel is previewing upcoming WWE action figures today at Ringside Fest, including their first-ever figure of The Fiend,†the official post reads.
The render of “The Fiend†is displayed in a plastic stand. Behind it is a render of “The Boss†Sasha Banks, including accessory changes such as a jacket, alternative hands and glasses. There is also a figure of “The Man†Becky Lynch to the right of the frame. Other teased characters include what appears to be “The Bruiserweight†Pete Dunne, The IIconic’s Peyton Royce, Finn Balor and WWE Hall of Famer, Chyna.
Wyatt has enjoyed a career resurgence since pivoting to this latest version of his character. Adopting a mask -- which was designed by horror legend Tom Savini and his studio -- “The Fiend†has embodied the darkest elements of Wyatt’s already unhinged mindset. He recently defeated Seth Rollins for the WWE Universal Championship in a match at WWE’s controversial Crown Jewel event in Saudi Arabia. A former WWE Champion, this win over Rollins marks the first time he has held the Universal title.
