Epic! Of course, my favourite part was the kissing and serving cookies...

That was more entertaining than John Cena's actual matches.

Did Frank Klepacki (of C&C fame) write the music for this? It seems plausible given his UFC connections. That is to say, the entire time I watched this video, the music was giving me Red Alert flashbacks.

The bonus footage is really fun.

Great premise, and great stunts!

However, I kinda hoped they'd depict the most common mode of action figure playing by having a scene in which the wrestlers repeatedly jumped into the air to ram heads together.

Also, Bas has the life. He proved himself skill-wise, and now he just spends all day having wacky fun, seemingly. Kinda like Genki Sudo! Were I a world champion mixed martial artist, that is the path I would take.
