Box of Undisputed arrived. I love the product in hand, very thick card stock. I got some real cool cards and absolutely love the set but some of my pulls left a little to be desired. The best/rarest card in the box wasn’t even a relic. I pulled a Purple /5 Edge card. I also pulled a Blue /25 Bayley card, my next rarest and exciting for me as a Bayley collector. These boxes have 10 packs, guaranteed hit in every pack, 8 guaranteed autographs. My first two packs were my non-autos, which was nice getting that out of the way first. Got a /99 HBK mat/shirt and a /50 Lashley mat/shirt that has dual color on the shirt. The autographs were: Kevin Owens mat/shirt relic (/199, I believe), Lashley mat/shirt (Green /50), base Ruby Riott (/199), Orange /99 Ruby Riott, base R-Truth (/199), Orange R-Truth (/99), a redemption card for the /99 Orange Lana and a Green /50 Booker T. Definitely some nice stuff but going for the splurge I was hopeful for a few more scarcer items and my dream pull from one of these is one of the HHH autographs. Ouch at getting two doubles of autographs in Truth and Ruby. Neither who I'd want one auto of let alone two.
Redemption cards are so annoying too.
Good luck to anyone else buying boxes but I still think I'm better off just winning/buying select cards from new sets rather than gamble on a box.

Here's part 2 of my recent Ziggler gets. Part 1 is on the previous page. *2014 Chrome Ziggler red parallel (22/25) parallel autograph for $20.12 shipped: I have this card in the (/50) version but anytime a new version of this auto hits eBay at auction I try to win it. So hopefully the base version and gold version show up one day because I guess I'm going for the rainbow. I have the middle two colors that I'd go for (because I highly doubt I will ever get a printing plate or the 1/1 version) but who knows one day I might need to track down one of the other ones. I really like the look of this card so it's a nice one for me to have in multiple forms.
*2017 Undisputed Ziggler green parallel (24/25) autograph relic for $16.45 shipped: This was another card I had the (/50) version of already but I wanted it in the harder to find green parallel version. Shame the relic is just plain black like most I've seen for this card but I do like the green color. Kinda like a peridot which is my birth stone.
*2020 Undisputed Ziggler base autograph (1/199) for $19.27 shipped: This was my most recent Ziggler buy and I'm glad I saw it and sent an offer fast. The seller had it listed at $20+$4 shipping so I'm glad they accepted my offer right away. I usually don't go for base cards but the serial number made me really want it. I'm watching many other parallels of this so I expect to add the blue/green soon to the collection. The gold and orange are usually the last to get bought (well base as well) but we'll see.

These days I prefer singles but I had never gotten an Undisputed and caved. I’m not disappointed per se but in a ten hit box getting 2 Truth, 2 Ruby and 2 Lashley sucked a little fun out. The other piece that stinks is I went to redeem the Lana and it says code isn’t working. I read something online that sometimes Topps is slow to load the codes to their database this close to product release... I will try again tomorrow and see if I have to call Topps during their business hours.

Yeah I don't with redemption cards.. I'd potentially buy the redeemed autograph though.
And for Bliss fans someone on eBay listed a lot of cool looking Bliss cards from past sets. One is a 1/1 autograph relic from Undisputed last year iirc.
So good luck winning those cards!
Here is another batch of things I won on eBay:
*2017 Women's Division Ivory silver parallel auto (48/50) for $16.46 shipped: Ivory is one of the OG girls I liked I just don't have much of her stuff. She thankfully got added to a couple series of cards in the last couple of years but I wish she was in more... I think this was a pretty good price for her autograph at this level of rarity so I'm happy.
*2017 Women's Division Alundra Blayze gold parallel (3/10) for $5.35 shipped:
I saw this earlier this morning so scooped it up right away. Didn't notice right away that it has a slight scuff on the top of it but oh well the seller accepted before so I already committed. It's still a rare card so I'm happy to add it to my Alundra collection.
*2018 Women's Division Alundra Blayze blue parallel (25/25) for $5.26 shipped:
This was another late night find. Scooped it up immediately since for $5 or so to get a (25/25) card for someone I like is great.

Looking for Walter, imperium quad, and low number bray or bray case hit. Let me know if you find any and willing to sell. Brian Myers pulled a 3 of 3 Thank you already talking to the guy but he’s getting many offers. So doubt I’ll end up with it.

Update on the Undisputed redemptions - I called Topps today and it is a good thing I work from home at the moment because I was holding for a rep for an hour and a half. Their line is only open limited hours during EST weekday business hours. The rep was very nice and asked me for a code on the card and asked if what I was redeeming was from a set in 2013. I let her know it was a product that got released on Friday, sure enough they haven’t updated all their coding yet.
She promised me an email with an update and at 5 PM EST I got one saying the set should get activated “today”. I just tried now, four hours after the email and still no luck. Guess if I have no luck tomorrow I’ll have to continue my pursuit via the email ticket they sent as resolved.
In more positive news, I got a good deal on a couple Undisputed singles on eBay today but I’ll share when they arrive, since I try not to hype myself up until the item actually arrives on eBay purchases.

More Naomi additions to my collection. *2017 Undisputed Naomi silver parallel autograph (6/50) for $10.98 shipped: I have this autograph in the base form only so I needed to upgrade and the silver parallel is my favorite version of the card so I'm glad I got it for so cheap. If I see the bronze (/99) or especially green (/25) version for a reasonable price I'll have to jump on it.
*2018 Women's Division Naomi silver parallel (28/50) for $2.59 shipped:
Not much to say other than this was one parallel I didn't have in any rarity so it is nice to get for cheap. *2017 Women's Division Naomi shirt relic (199/199) for $6.69 shipped: I was really happy to get this since the silver parallel version I got for cheaper came damaged... And of course the serial number is perfect. Shame it is just a black patch but oh well.
*2016 Women's Division Naomi black parallel autograph (9/50) for $9.45 shipped: This was another card I have already, this time in a better rarity (/25) but I never see this card get sold at auction so I wanted to try my luck at it. I got a really great deal on it and a Drew McIntyre autograph I'll post soon so I couldn't be happier.

The redemptions were finally working yesterday so my Lana is in. I won a couple more redemption cards on eBay that will hopefully arrive for me to enter in the next few days.
Yesterday I received my /25 auto of EC3 from last year’s Undisputed set that I got off eBay for about $12 shipped.
I know I’ve mentioned before I don’t like mentioning some of my purchases until I have them in hand and yesterday was a prime example. I had been watching someone had a Roderick Strong Undisputed 2020 base (/199) jersey/mat/auto relic for $15.99 shipped. The shirt relic even was multiple colors so it really caught my eye. While Roddy’s prices hadn’t been high, this seemed too good to be true on this one so close to release. I had been waffling from just spending so much lately but then I got an alert the seller reduced the price for a limited time to $12.99. I jumped in and bought it almost as soon as I saw that. Came to like $14 and change after tax. Maybe within an hour, the seller messages me and says “Sorry, I realized the card was damaged and had thrown it in the trash. You have been refunded”. Totally suspect to me. I don’t know if he didn’t realize he was selling so low or the lower price was meant to be a private offer for someone else but I in no way believe even if this card was damaged that he just threw it away. I feel like that whole phrase made it even more suspect.

More eBay wins.
*WWE 2020 RTWM holographic parallel lot for $0.77 shipped:
It was cheap so I figured it was a good time to get that McIntyre card in this version of the card. I have a printing plate of it so I oddly have one a 1/1 and the most printed version of a parallel the card comes in. Now I need to get the inside levels of rarity although those will be hard since I never see the gold/silver/blue versions for decent prices...
*2008 Chrome Heritage John Morrison refractor for $2.88 shipped:
This is another Morrison card I already had in the better X-fractor level of rarity but I still wanted it. It actually came in the mail today. This seller actually knows how to ship a card in a PWE...
*WWE 2018 Drew McIntyre silver parallel (1/25) autograph for $14.20 shipped:
This was won from the same seller as the black parallel Women's Division Naomi auto I posted earlier. I was very happy to get it for so cheap since I don't have any version of the card and it is the silver (1/25) which is my favorite (color and number).

More 2020 Undisputed gets! *2020 Undisputed Drew McIntyre orange parallel (99/99) autograph for $22.50 shipped I was so happy to spot this when it was listed so that I could send an offer fast. They countered for like $1.75 more so I just accepted. I try to stick to the green (/50), blue (/25), and gold (/10) rarities but when I see the orange and base versions of cards I want for my top people I collect that have good serial numbers I pounce. *2020 Undisputed Cesaro green parallel (12/50) autograph for $8.61 shipped: *This is the one I turned down since my (12/50) doesn't want to work!*
I got this card for really cheap thankfully considering the shipping cost more than what I won it at auction for. I'm very happy I resisted the urge to send in an offer on a similar one that was $14 shipped. The seller sent me an offer for $11 shipped but by then I already won it so I declined. I'm really liking the look of these autos this time so I'm glad I got at least one version of this card so far.

Love those pickups. I have been winning some auctions that have surprised me.
Latest arrivals were I had a seller that had fair prices on the Blue (/25) Roman Reigns autograph redemption and the Gold (/10) Shorty G autograph redemption and I went for it. Codes entered.
Also had one seller where I got the base oranges of Bianca and Kay Lee Ray and Blue bases of Dijakovic and Balor.
Have a couple other cool gets that I’ll post when they arrive.

^ Nice. I look forward to seeing them. I've been a very busy beaver getting Undisputed 2020 cards for my three main guys. I'm really sad Naomi only has a base card in different parallel varieties.. Haven't got lucky with any of those yet but just wait.. *Undisputed 2020 Ziggler blue parallel (24/25) and orange parallel (51/99) for $5.75 shipped:Not my favorite looking card for him but I needed it and the seller conveniently had two of the ones I would for sure get at the same time. I figure I can find the green relatively easy but the gold, purple, and five 1/1s will be probably impossible to get. Plus it isn't a card I would necessarily be inclined to go all out for to complete the rainbow so I'm fine with 2-3 versions.
*2020 Undisputed Cesaro green parallel (8/50) for $2.78 shipped:
*Idk why the green parallel picture won't work so here is the orange version just to show you what it is. Just envision it in green!*
The green parallel version I bought came from the same seller as the Ziggler ones. So I saved on shipping and wanted it anyways so I'm glad to get 1/3 of the ones I'll likely get. Again this isn't the best looking card for Cesaro imo so orange and blue will likely be it.
*2020 Undisputed Cesaro shirt/mat relic (1/99) for $9.44 shipped: I usually don't buy base versions of the relics for people but it has one of my favorite serial numbers on it so I wanted it. $9+ is a little much but oh well. Still looking for this card (and the auto version) in the green, blue, gold, and or purple variety. Sadly lost a lot of those today so that sucks. I'll bounce back though.
*2020 Undisputed Ziggler shirt/mat relic (15/99) for $8.08 shipped: This is the first version of this card I got that wasn't signed so I'm happy since the patch is colorful not like most of the plain black ones you see.. *2020 Undisputed Ziggler green parallel (15/50) mat/shirt relic autograph for $12.74 shipped:
This is the first parallel version of this card I have got so far. I'm watching many more so hopefully I get a blue, gold, and base version one day.

Looks like the checklist for the new Chrome set came out the other day. People seem mostly underwhelmed. They definitely didn’t change the product from what was conceived when this was supposed to be in June since there are people who got released in April and fired in the summer in the set (Gallows, Anderson in the base set, Ryder has an autograph, Travis Banks is in the base set). www.blowoutcards.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/WWEchrome.pdfHoping people’s disappointment will bring the prices down some as the set itself looks nice - just even more outdated than others since it was delayed nearly half a year.

Morrison and Mickie AGAIN got snubbed but the biggest shocker is Dolph Ziggler also got snubbed! Topps! WTF?! Not even base cards for any of those three.. I'm happy Cameron Grimes is included since I may have to start a collection for him but I can't really expand too much so only if his stuff is on the lower end. I don't really care about image variations but hey at least Naomi is guaranteed at least one new photo since they ALWAYS reuse sh*t. Wow only Drew for me in terms of the base autographs. So dumb. They must want me to save up lol. Also it needs to be said but I HATE how they keep changing what certain colors mean in terms of rarity. This product does parallels like this: Green #/99, Gold #/50, Orange #/25, Black #/10, Red #/5, SuperFactor 1/1. Consistency would be very helpful... The Charlotte/Lita and Alexa/Trish dual auto would be sweet but of course it will go for a ton so I'm not going to get it. Congrats to the lucky Alexa fans who nab one though. The 'Shocking Wins' Auto checklist had a chance to give me something else to get but it is a major letdown smh.. Praise the lord SAINT Molly Holly is finally back in a WWE card set! I'm so thrilled about that! The legends base set came through although oddly they left off Lita and Trish but hey I get Alundra, Eve, Molly, and I guess Wendi so that's better than just Drew McIntyre to parallel-hunt for. The fantasy match set has like four cards for me to parallel hunt (Beth/Chyna, McIntyre/Booker, Lita/Charlotte, and Alexa/Trish). Who wants to see McIntyre vs Booker T though? No... Wow I thought the legends would have their own autograph check list but I guess not. I can't believe Drew's autograph is all I have to get from this set. EPIC fail!

It's been far too long since I posted what I got at COMC so here is the order I got that went from late May to July 15th: *2018 WWE McIntyre silver parallel (25/25) autograph for $14.95 shipped:
This was a no brainer buy since I didn't have it in any rarity and it was the silver (25/25) version. I love the look of the card just wish this picture wasn't used for multiple sets...
*2018 Undisputed McIntyre blue parallel (18/25) for $4.85 shipped:
This was another card I didn't have any version of. So adding the blue parallel for relatively cheap is great. *2019 SS Ziggler Def. Rollins in Iron Man Match Yellow Printing Plate for $12.25 shipped: I was super happy to add my first Ziggler printing plate to my collection. It's a shame I don't have more but will try to rectify that.. $12-15 is a great price for a 1/1 printing plate so I'm glad I saw it on sale.
*2019 Undisputed Ziggler shirt relic blue parallel (20/25) for $4.50 shipped: This was a very cheap rare parallel multi-colored shirt relic so I also was pleased to add it to my collection. *2015 Heritage Cesaro silver parallel for $1.59 shipped: Just a little card I still needed in my Cesaro collection.
*WWE 2018 Naomi autograph (58/99) for $6.25 shipped:
Again didn't have any version so while it is the base one I think the price was right. Hopefully I can get a better one one day.
*2016 Undisputed King Barrett silver parallel (41/50) for $1.37 shipped: I needed this parallel for Barrett so added it to the order.
*2016 Undisputed Stardust/Goldust silver parallel (21/50) for $1.75 shipped:
Cody/Stardust cards are kinda hard to find so getting this for cheap was cool.
*2018 Chrome Justin Gabriel shimmer parallel (2/10) for $3 shipped: I liked Gabriel when he was here for his short run but since he only had so much stuff adding things to his collection is hard. I was shocked to see a shimmer parallel got for $3 so I had to pick it up even if he isn't one my main guys.
-----
This collection of cards was really good for me. It focused on my main four people as well as people I consider top 6 but rarely get cards for since they've been gone from WWE for a while (Cody/Wade). The Gabriel card was just a bonus.
I'll have to post my next batch later on.

Totally agree on the changing colors being annoying. The other day I saw a Red card cheap and was thinking it was one of one when I found out that year it wasn’t.
What I will say about the variations in this Chrome set is that is consistent with the colors/rarities in their Chrome baseball set and I think matches a few years worth of sets. But it would be nice for all products to be similar since in some of the last few major sets /5 was Black (MITB), Purple (Undisputed) and now Red (Chrome).
Comparing those, there is no Black in Undisputed but a Purple is /25 in MITB, which is still rare but I’m not willing to go as much on a /25 as I am a /5.
