They weren't both in this box ... just in back-to-back boxes at 1-in-187 odds. (This is not a work -- Buzz was more shocked than Undertaker guy at 'Mania.)
Autographs/Memorabilia: 1
Autographs (1) – Paige
What's Buzz-worthy: The two autographs you see above? They came in back-to-back boxes at odds of one in 187 packs. The first one got a reaction that would have made Joey Styles proud ("Oh my ... ) and the second one would have been one heard at an ECW show best presented with a holy emoji these days. That said, wow. Why? Paige is a card that should be more important in the near future and this set is home to essentially her only certified autos. (It was one I never landed previously, too.) Joining her with ink here are A.J. Lee, Bray Wyatt, Eden, Emma, John Cena, Seth Rollins, George "The Animal" Steele, Hulk Hogan, Roddy Piper, Ric Flair and Bret "Hitman" Hart to name a few. It's a strong roster of ink and a brand that I destroyed a lot of wax for in the past -- and I never pulled a single autograph. (My past hobby break here? It didn't even include ink.) I found these at a price of essentially $1 a pack and couldn't refuse that, despite not knowing the odds. There are a lot of hobby inclusions in this one -- just at long odds. (You can see in the gallery -- autographs are actually easier than Relics.) This was an insane break I couldn't imagine equaling again -- it kind of balances out the burn of that 22-year-old Kobe Bryant redemption from Hour 1.
