Victoria has been signed to a deal for video games and figures, for years I hoped she'd get under a Mattel deal and now it almost completes my top 5 women growing up Trish, Lita, Molly Holly and Gail Kim always put on good matches and I'm glad to have another piece of almost completing my top 5, don't have the most hope for Gail but never say never.

I might buy her figure, but being primarily a WCW/NWO era fan, she's pretty low on my wishlist.
I'd want 2002-2003 era with a mean-looking or slightly-snarling headscan.

Legit one of the nicest people you'll ever meet in the wrestling business. I assume she'll be in the Legends line...... sign me up for two.

I have always heard good things about her, and I really did enjoy her matches in the early 00s. I'd be down for a figure. (Entrance Greats with All The Things She Said)

Nice, she's a huge missing piece to multiple shelves. I'd take a TNA look like Mattel's done with RVD

And hopefully this is an indication that WWE is actively trying to sign some "fresh" Legends for "First-Time-In-The-Line" stuff!

She announced it on her Twitter account. Two interesting things from her announcement.
1. She calls it a Nostalgia contract. Second time we have seen that phrasing, I believe the Headbangers was the first. 2. She states that WWE reached out to her. Hopefully they are taking a more proactive approach these days.

Similar "nostalgia contract" language has been used around Samu, the Dudleys, Pillman, and probably some others I'm missing. Just seems like the new corporate branding. Legends contracts also used nostalgia agreement terminology. New names is always a positive. But I don't think there's anything indicating that their approach is fundamentally different, with the (notable) exception of adding more women in recent years with Molly, Stacey, Torrie, and now Victoria. It's nice that they've moved beyond the narrative that women's wrestling in the 2000s was just Trish and Lita.

I respect what she’s done in the ring, especially during an era when women’s wrestling was more focused on T&A and less about wrestling ability. That said, zero desire for a fig of her.

I love Victoria. I remember watching her as a kid and she instantly stood out. I never really cared for women’s wrestling but she made me pay attention. She’s great glad she’s finally gonna get a Mattel figure. Hopefully HOF Induction as well

This is great news!! Please don't drop the ball on this Mattel!! Honestly, her look was pretty consistent throughout her run, so I'm not worried about what look they go with. (Still mad about Miss Hancock instead of the Dutchessof Dudleyville Stacy...) All I ask is that she be an Elite with unique sculpting, a knee brace, and BE IN SCALE. (Uh hum, too tall Molly) These opportunities don't come often for women legends so let's get this right the first time Mattel!

This is great news! I've been wanting a Mattel Victoria figure, and for her to be included into WWE 2K, for a long, long, long time. She also needs to be in the WWE Hall of Fame.
