What's Buzz-worthy: My second box of my go-to brand for the Panini WWE years mostly (but not completely) avoided the printing issue that really put a damper on my first rip of this one -- but it otherwise was relatively balanced with past/present and men's/women's stars to keep it respectable but not unquestionably strong, coming up just short of an A-grade for me this time. It's not the biggest base set but the checklist is pretty deep in terms of the names ... so that can bring a small box down where you aren't getting as much. These are cool -- and a reason I rip -- because it's all parallels here and I, again, think the color scheme is better than standard Optichrome stock. The Ringside tier in parallel colors here is a nice find for a veteran who's not that pricey but there were enough names in key spots to keep this one from being average ... though my Orange Flash cards were among the first cards I saw and showcase names from the past I'd rather not find as I'm ripping for now and not 1985. Overall, though, this one figures to be on my ripping radar more in 2025 with its multiple formats among several recent releases and a future licensing change that may not result in as many affordable products with a wide array of potential finds like this one does. (That's not 100-percent certain, just a gut feel ... and a nod to how well-crafted this brand has been over the years.)
