What a boring, repetitive design. These cards look far too identical to last year's imo. That Triple H color blast, though

I'm guessing $299 out of the gate with prices settling around 200-250.

ssilva872 · 02-22-2023, 12:26 PM

Yeah I was hoping for a design that didn't look too similar to last year.

poomplavk · 02-22-2023, 12:29 PM

That auto on top looks.... different lol. Not sure how I feel about that.

notoriousrmb · 02-22-2023, 12:40 PM

Wait, these aren't going to $1k a box?

Don't people realize this is only the second WWE Prizm release ever in the existence of the Earth?

I mean its Prizm - not sure why everyone hasn't pre-ordered a few cases to stash because these have nowhere to go but TO. THE. MOON.

hammerva · 02-22-2023, 02:36 PM

It will be interesting to see how they try to pump and dump this one. I mean there are dealers still over charging stuff to recoup anything after losing about 70% on box prices in about 4 months.

Maybe the hype for Immaculate will still be so strong that we can enjoy Panini Prizm

Nearest Walmart is blowing out their last stock of last year's product and people STILL don't want it....

You can buy 2022 WWE Prizm hobby for $200 a box. Why would anyone pay $200-$250 for 2023? Why would anyone pay over MSRP for 2023?

How much are they charging? The Walmart near me has blasters for $19.99.

Mike Chase · 02-22-2023, 06:29 PM

Last years release came at a perfect time. Mania, the return of Cody Rhodes, and the last gasps of the pandemic card craze.

Depends on if it has a fresh batch of NXT rookies. Low serial base cards in 2022 of Roxanne Perez and Nikkita Lyons have sold well, so if they have their first autographs in Prizm it may boost it at least for the few few weeks.

That's all I got though, nothing else would really be a selling point. That's the downside of wrestling vs. real sports, its just the same guys with the same fans as every other release, only so many times you can stick on stickers a different way.

Kingofkings1281 · 02-22-2023, 10:39 PM

The HHH color blast looks cool at least. Mostly just because of the picture they used.

Same..... And they have fat packs I think for 9ish... Picked up a couple of those just for sh!ts and giggles...

I never had any luck with the blasters...

They're $5 blasters. When it comes to 2023 prizm, the old adage holds true...buy singles.

Brobocop · 02-26-2023, 04:12 PM

Preselling for $300 a box.

Hmm real tempting looking back at how much I was overpaying for 2022 in first couple weeks

mnvikingstwins · 02-26-2023, 05:01 PM

Thinking stick to singles until cases drop to a more reasonable $2k value

Go look at their preorder prices for everything right now. All football, basketball, soccer, and this product I don't see how they can sell a single box at the prices they have listed. Of all the products priced at least 2 times MSRP there is a better chance most tank 50% 3 months after release than increase a single cent over presale price.

IndySportsCards · 02-27-2023, 04:59 PM

I used to enjoy opening wrestling because it was cheap, now they've taken that away from me.. What's next? Next thing you know, they'll take my thoughts away

hermanotarjeta · 02-27-2023, 07:47 PM

If no one buys it will come down to less than $200/box.

Cardboard Dawg · 02-27-2023, 10:52 PM

Remember when all the hype boys, who only watched The Rock highlights on YouTube, said Gable Stevenson will carry 2022 Prizm?

Yeah I bought 2 blasters of 2022 Prizm for $20 total and just sold that card for 30 cents.

I swear, people said that would be a $10 base card. Last year was some crazy stuff.

Mike Chase · 02-28-2023, 07:04 PM

It's funny that Gable Steveson had so much hype. Dude has a checkered past, rape accusation that caused a state to amend it's laws so guys like him wouldn't get away with it again, and from everything I hear his brother has shown more promise and works harder to improve.

Who would even be hot "rookies" in this years set? Sol Ruca maybe?

Agreed on Steveson. I've never seen it and I don't think he'll ever make it.

Sol Ruca could be a very good thing for WWE.

If people start pumping Sol Ruca cards that's wild lol most breakers don't even watch NXT let alone Level Up lol

The only two names I can think of that may be chase rookies are *hint for the pumpers* the daughter of a "great one" and a social media star

Really though if they are in the set Ava Raine and Logan Paul, hate him all you want but he's a star and will have a highlight match at Mania. He can also put on a show and has a built-in fanbase
