BuzzMania 5: Busting 2021 Topps WWE Fully Loaded (Hour 7)

The biggest weekend in pro wrestling is here with WrestleMania 38 set for Saturday and Sunday from Dallas. We'll make today a big day for wrestling collectors right here on The Buzz with #BuzzMania5, a series of WWE wax box/pack breaks.

We're not quite at the finish today, but we're continuing with the brands that deliver the hits ... and this one is all about hits -- and only hits. How will we do with just a single pack with all the BuzzMania pressure? Keep reading ...

Card That Stole The Show: This card is The Show this time ... and it's one of the names I would want to land here.

What's Buzz-worthy: I did a trio of these boxes earlier this year when they arrived with above-average results for my breaks in terms of who I found, so I figured it had to he part of today's lineup despite the simplicity. But simplicity has been a big part of today so ... here we are. This box included another key name if you ask me -- though not necessarily a money name as many of the young stars' autos here are soft with so many new delayed releases all coming in 2022. What makes this set different than its predecessor? Cards just like this -- the Future Stars cards that are not auto-mem cards but are inked by newcomers and stars who, in some cases, don't have any other cards in the calendar year. This set included a number of sticker autos -- perhaps where stars who had signed some surplus before the licensing change ended up -- but this one is actually an on-card sig. Unlike some of her contemporaries, the auto quality here also holds up -- some stars' autos have devolved heavily in recent releases perhaps a sign they were all being signed in longer marathon sessions. Hartwell is one of the WWE's Australian imports in recent years and has been an entertainer beyond just matches so I think this is one of the better autos to land here -- those skills will likely hold up at the next level, too, unlike others who haven't had as much luck in the higher levels post-NXT. ... Other finds in this one (checklist above, odds below) include printing plate autos, Relics for gear, tables, ladders, chairs, turnbuckle pads and garbage cans, too, so that adds to the chase with autographs guaranteed every time. I like these ... but I think your safest route is singles (for now) or opening three or four boxes at once to perhaps land one of the better names that cover more. A lot of younger stars aren't as in-demand ... yet. This one will continue to get future looks from me.

Product Grade: A
Box Grade: A-
Fun Grade: B+ (one card ... it's all or nothing)

What's next? The main event is up next ... and it's a case -- yes, a case -- that delivers.
