What torso is E23 JBL? to me the overall figure feels like they took a Wade Barrett Elite, swapped heads with JBL, removed the tattoos and added the JBL logo to his tights + accessories.

I wish they'd made JBL bulkier. The hat, jacket and towel are sweet though.

Yeah, sadly they went the Barrett route, which many of us thought they would. I actually made a JBL prior to his figure coming out & put on the Hat, Jacket & Towel from his Elite figure onto my custom. I prefer the figure I had made over Mattel's in the sense because I feel the scan & body type is more realistic then the Barrett body that is still even too ripped for Barrett himself..
Here's my version..

MDT was put in a tough spot cause JBL has a torso that really nobody else uses and there wasnt an accurate one out there for him. He needs more of the Austin/Bulldog torso but not as "buff".

I have mine with all his accessories on so I'm not complaining.

I think the custom above looks a bit too bulky, but that might be because the Mattel JBL head is so small. I'm not sure what choices I'd have gone with if I were in charge for choosing the parts to the Mattel JBL, but the one they released is definitely too skinny.

Speaking of JBL, I need one if anybody has one for trade.

I never cared for the E23 JBL/E24 Barrett body. I hope they could mold a better torso for the next Elite Barrett.

I've never bothered to take his coat and towel off, so it doesn't bother me one bit what torso he has.
