What's Buzz-worthy: Wanna see a weird box? This is a weird box ... but one that's perhaps inevitable as those cards I found four times apiece here in the Roster set show up just as plentifully in larger hobby boxes -- they have to appear more times on the uncut sheet. Why? Perhaps a mistake or perhaps space-fillers as others fell off the checklist during production or something here. The Blue parallel here is a tough pull at one in 337 packs -- and I have done this more than once -- and the Pink Relic is one in 109 ... so this still gets an A out of me despite that trainwreck on the Roster front. ... For the suggested retail price and a reasonable shot at ink -- with all parallels seemingly in play -- this one is a pretty safe buy as long as you're not looking for the guys from WWE. This is another blaster that shows the parallels are possible and they can even drop together. (For more thoughts here, check out my past breaks ... this one has been a bit of a go-to for me since release as it can deliver well.)
Product Grade: A- (better design than 2020)
Box Grade: A- (Roster collation a bust here but two rarer cards bail it out)
Fun Grade: B+ (see above)
