In this episode, we discuss the collectible card game known as WWE Raw Deal. We sit with Nate Weiss, a long time player, a former World #1 ranked player and a long time rules manager for the game itself. We look at the game and see if there is anything wrestling card collectors should look for if they are interested in finding some hidden gems. With early appearances by some big name talent and a mixture of on card autograph cards, Raw Deal may be a hidden collectible for more card collectors!

When we started WTC almost 20 years ago, we never thought we would get to a point where we would have a professional writer, writing cool articles about the hobby of wrestling trading cards. But here we are, working with long time hobby enthusiast, the talented Michael Moore. He's written for some major collectibles publications, including Beckett, Tuff Stuff and was a long time writer for PWTorch website. Now, we are honored to have him writing for WTC! We catch up with him and find out what lead to him coming on board, what he enjoys writing about most, current product, indie cards and more.

WTCtv Episode 45: Topps Slam Digital Trading Cards + NFTs w/ Adam Gellman
#wrestlingcards #wtc #ToppsSlam #NFTs
Months ago, we sat down with Adam Gellman and discussed what the hell are digital cards and why would a traditional trading card collector want to get into that. Admittedly, we were not sold on the concept. Without holding a physical item in our hands, what fun was it. Well, turns out, a lot of fun! Since that episode, we started dabbling with the Topps Slam app and well ... we're addicted to it! We sit back down with Adam, do a little recapping of the app and then get right into some new ideas like using Topps On-Demand service and even throw in NFT talk into the mix. An incredibly deep discussion and explanation of what the digital world is, how it works, what doesn't work and what it and the NFT world could mean to these types of apps.
Prepare to get well educated on this subject!

WTCtv Episode 42: "Late Game" - Getting Into WCW Autographs w/ Jamie Wallace
#wrestlingcards #wtc #wrestlingtradingcards #wcw
In this episode, we talk with Jamie Wallace, who has recently "discovered" the amazing WCW autograph cards released by Topps in 1998-1999. Unlike our previous interview with Wes Moore, who is almost finished with collecting all 101 "officially" pack pulled WCW autograph cards, Jamie decided just a couple months before we taped this episode, to get into this incredible adventure. He is after not only every pack pulled card, but the ones that seem to keep popping up that were never returned back to Topps! We ask, "why now?" and "why these sets?". We find out his favorites so far, how the wrestling card community has helped him and much more.

WTCtv Episode 41: The Release of the Mike Enos WCW Autograph Card
#wrestlingcards #wtc #mikeenos #wcwautographs
It's been over 20 years and yet we continue to keep learning new things about the 3 sets that Topps released in the late 1990s - the 1998 WCW/nWo Seires One, the 1999 WCW/nWo Nitro & the 1999 WCW Embossed! Each offered chances at pack pulled, on card autographs. However, there were a small number that never made it back to Topps to be inserted into packs. What was once known as the Elusive Eight (not counting variants) has now become Nine, when a recent Mike Enos card found it's way online. We sit and chat with Michael Labbe, the man who made this card available to the public - to date, the only known one to exist - and dig in to how he got his hands on this card, why after all this time he decided to sell it, his connection to the hobby of wrestling cards and much more.

On this episode of "Superstars of Wrestling Trading Cards", we are honored to get the chance to chat with Bryan Clark - FKA Adam Bomb, Wrath and one half of the amazing tag team, Kronik. An absolutely all around nice guy, we dig into his history of trading cards - from his 1993 Series 11 Hasbro figure (which had a cut out card on the back) to his 1998 WCW autograph card (as Wrath). He's got some exciting new collectibles coming out including a throwback Adam Bomb figure, soon to be followed up with a Wrath figure and for the first time ever - a Kronik figure! We find out - Did Adam Bomb ever collect trading cards? Does he know all the cards he's been on? We share a few different cards with him as well. We even dip a little into his amazing recovery story, as he shares what helped him get clean. Such a fantastic man to speak to and I do hope to get the chance to chat with him again. Check it out!
