Might not seem like much, but we all know what merch means to Vince (as it should). Anyways in the WWE figure hierarchy there's the regular guy figures like you see on the pegs at Walmart, the "Elite" figures which are finished a little better, have more articulation, and come with accessories. Then there's their top of the line, the "Defining Moments" figures. The difference between the Elite and the Defining Moments figures are generally better materials for the ring gear, titles, etc, they also tend to pick the era the wrestler was best known for. Ie, Wrestlemania 3 Hulk Hogan.

The other distinctive thing about the line is its reserved by in large part for legends. Warrior, Hogan, Sting, Undertaker, Stone Cold, Flair, Cena and making his WWE figure debut in March: Shinsuke Nakamura. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but it seems they must be pretty high on Nakamura for him to be debuting in their premium line.

You can see the figure here:

They unloaded a frigging Symphony for him and his walkout on the nxt brand for crying out loud. The guy is a genius of a performer and deserves everything he gets. 2017 Nakamura VS AJ at Mania would be the greatest Main Event in Mania History.

Either way. I see your point and agree. More!!
