Ringside has announced / put elite 83 up for preorder so I’m going to get into what was announced and make some predictions on what attires we may see. I think we’ll see these all revealed next week at Digital Ringside Fest but it’s fun to try and predict for now.![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/GJeI_GQ9LwbRqowO50Vw_H8lyFGmVZpM-h_NJYqsmFoai2IkMIV-s0KnuIkbNzA)

With us knowing that the upcoming Edge Ultimate will be from Royal Rumble, I think that locks up the Elite and chase attires. He’s only had 3 matches since returning, so you have to assume they hit those two matches here. I think the regular is Wrestlemania 36, and the chase is Backlash 2020.

We know Sasha based on a reveal at SDCC. I think it’s is an awesome choice, and early on I thought that maybe the chase would be Sasha, and it being her RAW return from the night after Summerslam 2019. This was a good choice, and if the figure looks as good as the mock-up, I may grab it to put on the shelf with Elite 80 Bayley.

Going off the board here because... why not? Yellow polka dot Dusty is covered via early legends lines, WCW era is covered with the WCW ring and Elite 63 - what’s really left? I would love an NXT era Dusty, but I don’t see it happening. With nWo Hogan set to drop soon, get as many of these unreleased nWo figures out as possible. Outside of a re-release I have NO clue on any realistic possibilities for this one.

Do I expect this? No. But I’m predicting with my heart! There’s a 99% chance we’re getting Freebirds era Hayes, and that’s FINE. But you can’t just give me that retro Hardy Boyz two pack, release a Hayes figure after, and NOT complete the trio as it was intended. Either way I’ll probably grab this once I see it, cause you can’t go wrong with a Micheal PS Hayes figure (no matter what era they choose).
- Edge (+ Chase)
- Sasha Banks
- King Corbin
- Drew McIntyre
- Dusty Rhodes
- Micheal P.S. Hayes (Store Exclusive)
A couple of these were mock-up renders that were shown earlier in the year at SDCC, so that makes things a bit easier.
Edge:
With us knowing that the upcoming Edge Ultimate will be from Royal Rumble, I think that locks up the Elite and chase attires. He’s only had 3 matches since returning, so you have to assume they hit those two matches here. I think the regular is Wrestlemania 36, and the chase is Backlash 2020.
Sasha Banks:

I think it’s is an awesome choice, and early on I thought that maybe the chase would be Sasha, and it being her RAW return from the night after Summerslam 2019. This was a good choice, and if the figure looks as good as the mock-up, I may grab it to put on the shelf with Elite 80 Bayley.
King Corbin:
Another one that had already been shown off, so we know exactly what we’re getting. Not much to say here other than it looks like they did a perfect job. It has everything it needs, and captures the initial part of the King Corbin run perfectly.
Drew McIntyre:
I think we get a Wrestlemania 36 Drew figure here, complete with entrance coat and WWE title. I couldn’t find a picture of it, but if I recall the back of his tights had something similar to the match shirt they released, with the Brock skull thingy having a sword through it.
Dusty Rhodes:
Going off the board here because... why not? Yellow polka dot Dusty is covered via early legends lines, WCW era is covered with the WCW ring and Elite 63 - what’s really left? I would love an NXT era Dusty, but I don’t see it happening. With nWo Hogan set to drop soon, get as many of these unreleased nWo figures out as possible.

Micheal P.S. Hayes:

All around a good lineup. It’s a bit strange that it’s only at 5 + store exclusive instead of the standard 6 + store exclusive, but I read some stuff that the rumoured lineup had Velveteen Dream. Probably a good call if amidst everything going on with him that they pull any figures they can for upcoming lineups.
