This image isn't probably a free use image. It was previously uploaded from WWE.com, but deleted due to same reasons.  T r U C o 9 31 1 01:52, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Exactly because the set just debuted this week, we prefer to upload images by people who have taken photos of the set (as apart of the audience), images by WWE are discouraged.-- T r U C o 9 31 1 02:35, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

This appears to be a scaled down cropped version of this photo. However, the page it appears on seems to post copyrighted photos, so it's unclear who owns the rights to the image. It appears to be a press photo, and at the very least, needs clarification on its source and copyright status. Mosmof (talk) 02:34, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

 * A year ago, an ADMIN, which you are not, not only told me (under my old ID) that it was OK, he placed it in the article.  Who's right? Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 13:02, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Admins aren't infallible or all-knowing, nor is policy permanently set in stone. In this case, the image is clearly a derivative image of copyrighted work. But, if the idea is to illustrate the box design, then it should be licensed as a non-free image with the appropriate fair use rationale attached. Then I think it's fine. --Mosmof (talk) 14:18, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

No assertion of authorship on the description page and thus this image us unsourced. As far as that goes, we have no way of knowing if it is authentic and as this is a photo is allegedly depicting a living person in an unflattering situation (stumbling drunk having to be carried), regardless of our copyright policy, this image fails WP:BLP unless it is well-sourced. B (talk) 22:44, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, are you seriously suggesting that someone who was at college with Mercury in 1965 would be bothered by a picture that showed Freddie Mercury helping him walk home?! We are hardly going to give wikipedia a very good image if well meaning people try to upload images from their own personal collection and then a bunch of bureaucrats come along and get rid of the image which they have take the time to scan and upload. The image is high resolution and clearly an amateur photo scanned with an old scanner (due to scan lines). Gustav von Humpelschmumpel (talk) 23:05, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * The photo is from the back and there's no possible way of knowing it is him. If you posted a photo that you claimed was me drunk and it wasn't me, I would probably be offended by it.  But regardless of that, there is no claim of authorship on this description page.  Sure, it might have been uploaded by the photographer, or it might be from a pay website like ancestry.com, from flickr, or any number of places.  Sure, it's an amateur photo, but unless we can answer the question of whose photo AND confirm that it's really a photo of the person it's claimed to be, we can't use it. --B (talk) 23:16, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * You know that Freddie Mercury is the person on the right, right? Why would anyone lie about an image with a big scan line across it that doesn't show Mercury's face very well? It seems like someone was just trying to help and by deleting this we are slapping people in the face and at the same time expect others to contribute their personal images? Gustav von Humpelschmumpel (talk) 01:27, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

I don't see how the image will fail BLP, given that Mercury has been deceased for a while. However, there is a lot of questions surrounding this image. Do we know who the author is, do we know when it was published or where it was published. Unless we know these things, we cannot really have this image at all. I would say delete.
