The biggest weekend in professional wrestling is here with WrestleMania 35 set for Sunday in New Jersey.

Card That Stole The Show: I'll go with the first autograph I pulled in the first pack of this batch, the Liv Morgan. There's really only one auto possible in these that I don't have from this set that I would have wanted more.

What's Buzz-worthy: These packs deliver pretty simply -- one autograph, one parallel and three base cards every time. As said previously, this first standalone NXT set has a strong lineup of signers -- one reason why it leads off here -- but super-skinny stock that leads to damage when signing or even packaging. It's that skinny. Other signers of note here include Alexa Bliss (redemption), Asuka, Bayley, Elias, Nia Jax, Peyton Royce, Billie Kay and they aren't alone. There are rarer Gold (/10) and 1/1 Red versions for autographs, too, and that can make for some even bigger breaks with the Reds not impossible at one in 184 packs. This was an online-only release so there aren't as many places to find these boxes now. There will become a point where they dry up ... so enjoy them while you can.
