As promised, today, we are on to the wrestling insert part of the large box trade with Shaw Racing from TCDB.
I don't have a lot of WCW inserts, so the Sting sticker from thewolfpack phase of the nWo is great. It's the Evolution inserts I am happiest with here. I love seeing the different phases of the careers for some of the guys, and there are a few cards for each. I have some already and added a few more here, but the side by side Orton cards show what is done with the insert set.
Raw 25 seems so long ago, as does Elias being popular in the WWE. I hear he is still doing well on the indies, but I don't know why he didn't have a bigger midcard run in WWE. He was fine in the ring, and had a great connection with fans, but just didn't all come together.. I do like the bronze parallels though.
Topps Chrome refractors look fantastic in hand. Again, maybe could be a bit better design, but really great in hand. The women roster cards - heck any of the sets where you have roster cards, I love it/ Plain and simple in design and structure, but being able to look at multiple years and the rosters side by side by side brings back tons of memories of what was going on at the time.
The rest of the box is all baseball I believe - so tomorrow, we can touch on the set helpers.
The Topps Big Iron Sheik is really cool.
