Wade Emsley 
Also known as: Wadeasu on Blowout Forum
Email: wadeasu@hotmail.com
Location: Arizona

Main focuses: Currently only collecting WWE cards since 2015. Sold/traded all previous MLB/NFL/NBA collections.

Favorites: I am a huge fan of the WWE company as a whole, but tend to focus my collecting on the Divas -- favorites are Liv Morgan, Alexa Bliss and "The Four Horsewomen," Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, Becky Lynch and Bayley.

Current collecting projects: I have been attempting to complete all of the WWE Kiss Card and Kiss Card auto sets released from 2016-2018. As well as the entire 2017 Topps WWE Undisputed autograph sets in all parallels. I have completed the Blue, Bronze and Silver sets. Missing only one Green, 14 Gold and seven Black from completing the set. I also have 33 auto plates from the set. Would appreciate any help in completing these.

Like many collectors, Buzz is a fan of grading and knows that there are many reasons that collectors choose to slab cards. Sometimes it's to enhance the appeal and protect them when selling. Other times it's to protect an investment for the long-term or to protect for sentimental reasons. Or, it might be just for fun or curiosity about a potential grade.

Here's this month's grading diary ... a super-sized edition with 20 cards to open 2020.

--

SO CLOSE TO PERFECTION ...
The Card: Ronald Acuña Jr. 2018 Topps Chrome #193 -- Rookie Card
The Reason Graded: This one looked very clean to my eye and I figured getting some of my past Acuña pulls slabbed was a good move considering his almost-40/40 showing last year. Some of his cards are heavily graded to the point where they can be had for not much more than a typical cost to slab if not in top grades. Meanwhile, others aren't as plentiful and some can typically grade very well. I went with this one since it's not as heavily graded and it does tend to grade well. Plus, I just liked the photo here compared to others -- and those I already own slabbed.
The Grade: BGS 10

Reality Check: This one surprised me a bit -- just one half-subgrade away from a BGS Black. Only 14 cards have gotten the perfect mark and this one is among an also-small population. Most cards here check in at 9.5s -- a solid mark and a perfect card to bat lead-off for this first MTG of the year. I expect big things from Acuña this year and I'll be slabbing him often.
