Sting No Longer Under WWE Contract, Which Is Why Mattel Figure Was Removed

Yesterday, news spread that Mattel was removing a Sting action figure from its Legends Series 7 wave and now we know why.

A report from Pro Wrestling Sheet reveals that the WCW icon is no longer under WWE contract. Of course, a new merchandising deal could still be worked out between the two sides but that is why Mattel can’t sell his likeness.

Rumors spread yesterday that All Elite Wrestling was interested in Sting after Cody Rhodes tweeted his own listening meme in response to the figure being pulled.
