The Major Wrestling Figure Podcast

Three active pro wrestlers and lifelong collectors dive deep into the world of wrestling figures, from vintage grails to modern releases.

The brief

This is the trade journal for the modern wrestling figure collecting scene, hosted by active professionals who have figures made of themselves. It's a weekly news and haul show that blends industry gossip with hardcore collecting minutiae, covering everything from the latest Mattel releases to rare prototypes and vintage toy hunts. The hosts' insider status provides a unique perspective on the business side of the collectibles they love.

Unlike other collecting podcasts, the hosts are active, high-profile professional wrestlers who have direct relationships with the companies they discuss, like Mattel and WWE. This gives them unparalleled access to news, prototypes, and an insider's perspective on the manufacturing and marketing of the toys.

How the host interviews

The main weekly show is a long-form, multi-segment conversation between three friends, recorded on video. It follows a consistent structure including news, a top-ten list from a major retailer, weekly personal purchases, and a fan Q&A. This is supplemented by shorter, on-location vlog-style episodes of the hosts on 'toy hunts' at stores and conventions.

Questions the host keeps coming back to

  • What was a collecting opinion you were completely convinced about that you no longer believe today?
  • What are your thoughts on [a specific, often obscure, moment or era in wrestling history]?
  • What is your favorite non-WWE sports memory from growing up?
  • Do you think with all the conventions and signings that autographed items are not worth what they used to be?
