Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson continues to show why he is “The Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment” — a 2022 Panini WWE Black Prizm card that includes The Brahma Bull bought for $126,000 at public sale, the highest-selling WWE buying and selling card of all time.
PWCC officers inform TMZ Sports they brokered the historic sale Thursday night time … and say the cardboard’s exclusivity — it is the one one which exists — is why it bought for a lot.
“This is arguably the perfect WWE buying and selling card in existence,” stated Jesse Craig, Vice President of Sales at PWCC. “Cards like this hardly ever floor for public sale since they’re so scarce. And when shortage outweighs public demand, you see report costs.”
“This was the proper mixture to drive that demand,” Craig added.
The card is taken into account a 1/1 masterpiece with a grade of Near Mint 7. It encompasses a holofoil picture of The Rock — AKA “The Great One” — slamming the Texas Rattlesnake, Stone Cold Steve Austin, to the mat with what seems to be his signature “Rock Bottom” finisher.
Of course, The Rock and Stone Cold had one of the vital storied rivalries in WWE historical past, culminating in a trilogy of matches that have been immediate classics at WrestleMania 15, 17, and 19.
When Rock and Austin weren’t colliding within the squared circle on “The Grandest Stage of Them All,” the 2 WWE Hall of Famers entertained the WWE Universe with their expertise on the microphone, chopping a few of the most legendary promos over their careers.
Both Rock and Austin have had profitable careers post-WWE — Dwayne is an A-list actor, and Steve Austin began a podcast and launched his first beer (Broken Skull) — however the magic the 2 created contained in the ring reveals why playing cards like these are in excessive demand.
Congrats to the brand new proprietor!!
