BuzzMania3: Busting 2019 Topps WWE NXT (Hour 8)

The biggest weekend in professional wrestling is here with WrestleMania 36 set for a scaled down split event on Saturday and Sunday. We'll make today a big day for wrestling collectors right here on The Buzz with #BuzzMania3, a series of WWE wax box and wax pack breaks -- though also on a smaller scale than Buzz had previously planned, too.

This is our finale ... featuring future Mania stars.

What's Buzz-worthy: The final box of today is one that includes the names who might be key in future -- more normal -- WrestleMania Sundays as the stars of NXT here are the newest names to hit WWE. The set is an interesting one when you consider that a number of the stars here are established in the independent scenes and internationally before coming here. In some cases, you can find big demand already and there could be more in the future. For example, the first autographed cards of Australian (via NXT UK) star Toni Storm are scorchers here. Meanwhile, some boxes in this one (one per case) checking in with five autographs and a relatively small checklist, you have a decent shot at her ink here as well as others' cards.On-card autos are also a big plus here but that means they got handled more, making those elite grades tad tougher if you grade cards -- the stock here is as skinny as it gets. ... NXT boxes of the past have always been an auto-per-pack situation so this one is a little more different but a little more affordable. Other newcomers here include Walter, Io Shirai, Keith Lee, Matt Riddle, Chelsea Green and Mia Yim -- some have autos and that certainly makes this one a little more interesting than the Smackdown set's auto lineup, for example. Check out my other breaks of this one to see more of what I've thought on this one. The base set isn't the flashiest here but the rest is very solid.

Product Grade: B+ (main set isn't my favorite approach ... roster set is A+)
Box Grade: A+ (thanks to one card)
Fun Grade: A- (landing the big one helped)

What's next? Look for WrestleMania this weekend and a new #Buzz8in8 breaks marathon (all sports) next month.
