What's Buzz-worthy: There are definitely top names here this time but this is a classic example of where, even as a bargain-bin box, some brands with small lineups and small formats can miss. This one is average at best with some highlights to keep it from being worse. This one is a who's who of names gone from WWE in just the few years since this one arrived ... and that hurts some of the appeal here, too. Here's hoping the forthcoming WWE sets from Topps in 2025 will deliver well -- and affordably -- otherwise this guy will be ripping more of this older stuff for a while ... as long as it's findable. ... This colorful release isn't necessarily a favorite of mine but it's super-affordable, findable and can run hot at times. I've had strong boxes here -- and I've had bad boxes here. ... This one is not as easily found in hobby -- mini boxes there typically deliver an auto and some color every time -- while these are cheaper since the odds are long but likely drying up, too, as there is potential for rare finds with big upside. Even Supers are in here -- one in 7,165 packs -- but I think one has to be reasonable when ripping here and solely for the basics. For more thoughts and images of stuff from this one, check out my other breaks. I've done a number of them.

Product Grade: A-
Box Grade: C+
Fun Grade: C+ (not that fun to open blasters here ... very lean)
