AEW’s Jazwares Team Reportedly Laid Off

The long-running partnership between AEW and toy maker Jazwares — which began in 2020 with the Unrivaled Collection announced that February and later expanded into Unmatched, Supreme, and Vault lines — has reportedly come to an abrupt halt as the entire Jazwares team behind the AEW toy line was laid off. The figures and product lines had been a regular presence in retail since their 2020 launch, making the layoffs a significant development for collectors and retail partners.

Neither AEW nor Jazwares have released an official statement on the layoffs or the future of licensed AEW products, leaving the status of upcoming releases and support for existing lines uncertain. Fans and retailers will be watching closely for any updates on whether the partnership will resume under different staffing or be transferred to another manufacturer.
