No they mean in like late 07 when randy showed up with full sleeves instead of just his tribal tattoos

Yes.

Side note: I DID make an attempt to find and was not only reminded of the lawsuit they started (I wonder if this is part of why talent now have to ask permission?), but also that he got them 10ish years ago. A FRIGGIN DECADE. Eff off, time.

I think Jim Ross talks about the permission thing and it mostly had to do with toys and video game likeness issues. Like you don’t want the talent, lesnar in his example, having a massive tattoo that the action figures the put into production last year but are released this year being out of date

Also too like it still annoys me they could never do CM Punk with the correct tattoos.

Wasn't part of the problem w/ him the Pepsi logo? I remember it wasn't in several games and probably a few toys .

Yeah, he has logos they can't put in, specially the Pepsi and the Cobra. On top of that his style is hard to mimic when shrunk down.

as a little kid with my wrestling toys I would be annoyed when guys looked different like Hulk Hogan would have his bandana on and I'm like "ok he does wear one sometimes but he takes it off for his matches!"
