BuzzMania 8: Making A Case For Panini Chronicles (Hour 6)
The biggest weekend in pro wrestling is here with WrestleMania 41 set for this Saturday and Sunday from Las Vegas. We'll make today a big one for wrestling collectors right here on The Buzz with #BuzzMania8, a marathon of wrestling breaks all day long.
This case made last year's lineup and it had to get another crack when I found it cheap back on Black Friday. Why? This is a variety-packed brand that truly delivers that with volume -- it's a fun one to rip if you ask me -- no matter what can happen on the quality control front.

BuzzMania 7: Shredding A Panini Chronicles Case (Hour 11)
The biggest weekend in pro wrestling is here with WrestleMania 40 set for this Saturday and Sunday from Philadelphia. We'll make today a big one for wrestling collectors right here on The Buzz with #BuzzMania7, a marathon of WWE wax box/pack breaks all day long.
This is a variety-packed case that truly delivers that with some volume but it's also one that wasn't without some flaws at times with some card surface funk and wonky collation -- we'll see if that strikes again here -- but it's a fun one to rip if you ask me ... no matter what.

BuzzMania 7: Big Surprises in 2022 Panini Prizm? (Hour 9)
The biggest weekend in pro wrestling is here with WrestleMania 40 set for this Saturday and Sunday from Philadelphia. We'll make today a big one for wrestling collectors right here on The Buzz with #BuzzMania7, a marathon of WWE wax box/pack breaks all day long.
This one arrived around the time of BuzzMania two years ago and was all the rage -- some justified and some absolute hype, too -- but there's no doubting that the Panini America WWE debut is a historic release. Why? It's jam-packed with color and an absolute boatload of Rookie Cards for starters ... though this format isn't perhaps as generous as others. As this break will show, though, it's worth the look ... as things can sometimes run hot.

Buzz Buys: Autographs, Tiffy Time, patches, SPs, mags & more
--
Buzz buys and busts a lot of boxes right here for Buzz Breaks, but one of my goals is to rip a little less and talk more about cardboard that I -- and you -- might like. One way to do that? Simple show and tell -- present a few pick-ups and say why they captured my attention.
So, with all that said, here are a few Buzz Buys ...
TIFFY TIME ... IS NOW
The Cards: Tiffany Stratton 2022 Panini Prizm WWE Premium Box Set (/199) & Orange Prizm (/99) -- Rookie Card parallels
The Price: About $60 total
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: She's the new NXT women's champ and that is likely going to mean more people are looking for her 2022 Rookie Cards from Panini America where she arrived in the meaty Prizm debut but actually didn't make the cut in all of the other sets from last year. Why? She was very new to WWE even when this first set arrived. I picked up both of these this spring when it seemed very obvious her time -- what she calls "Tiffy Time" -- was coming in NXT and I suspect it won't stop here. For more on her background, check out my previous Buzz Buys where there were more pick-ups. In short, I'm sold on the in-ring potential here and the over-the-top character work, too. These also will both eventually be slabbed cards in my collection.

BuzzMania 6: Mania-caliber Main Event Case-capper (Hour 14)
The biggest weekend in pro wrestling is here with WrestleMania 39 set for this Saturday and Sunday from Los Angeles. We'll make today a big one for wrestling collectors right here on The Buzz with #BuzzMania6, a marathon of WWE wax box/pack breaks all day long.
This final break of the day was one I have held back since grabbing it during one of the Black November/holiday sales, a case -- a whopping 40-boxer -- that can deliver very well and arguably coughs up the best overall results of anything that was ripped today ... especially for the price.

Collecting Game-used: My first match-used memorabilia
Mia Yim vs. Io Shirai, NXT -- Oct. 2, 2019 (WWE photo)
If you're a regular reader of this Collecting Game-used series, you've seen plenty of game-used baseball memorabilia, some NFL and then some other pieces here and there every month, but to finish off the series this year I figured I'd go with a first for me and my stash of photo-matched pick-ups.
This month, it's my first piece of WWE match-used memorabilia.
Since wrestlers are classified as independent contractors out there on the business side of things, they are responsible for their gear's creation and own it all when their time ends with a promotion, if they decide to move on or change their look for whatever need arises or for character changes. To simplify that, it means with some luck you can get Superman's cape from Superman instead of going through the movie studio -- and that simple metaphor is why I lead things off with the epic photo above.
My new piece is from wrestling veteran and former WWE star Mia Yim -- also known as Reckoning at the recent end of her recent run -- and she had all of those things in play that led some match-used memorabilia to my hands. She's had a pretty consistent gear style for most of her career until the name change and promotion and she recently posted on social media that it was time for some new stuff. That's likely a sign of some new chapters to come and that's how I found this piece -- she was selling the old to add the new. Another cool part? I was able to match things to a number of matches and even some cardboard from Topps. Heck, I even now know who made it for her.
You can see it in action above -- and get the details if you keep reading.
