    Brock $200



    Nice to see Brock's cards getting some action.

    Brock Raw

    My battle was with a GAI holder. Brock's was with a brand new Cadillac.


  • Brock destroyed J&J's Caddy lol.

    Very nice Brock football cards you have. I have a ton of his wrestling and MMA issues. Haven't added any football yet. I have a couple of his UFC Topps Autos. I've been hoping they would put out a wrestling auto but from everything I've read he's stated he's not signing anymore cards for the card companies. A Topps Chrome on card auto would be pretty sweet.

    That is interesting. I have read a high end WWE product is coming out and thought it would be cool to grab a Brock auto. I don't collect the recent wrestling cards but would have picked one up.

    That is awesome!

    I would love to see him perform one day. Brock is what is missing in wrestling. Since they have completely destroyed any level of kayfabe it is always nice to see him come out because you know it might be scripted but if he really wants to he can hurt just about anyone. I went to bed early and read about it this morning and pulled it up.

    Great segment in my opinion.

    << <i>ehh. thought it was terrible personally. ugly car, poor choice w/ the axes and the back door was completely pre-disassembled, even by wrestling standards. it about fell off as soon as he opened it. >>




    I will have to watch it again. My wrestling Buddy Allan said it wasn't a gimmicked car. He is the smartest dude I have ever met when it comes to wrestling stuff.

    Either way I am thrilled every time Brock does anything. He could stand there with his arms crossed and I would be more entertained then by most of the current roster.

    Fan injured


    When I read about Brock pulverizing the car this morning it was a story about a fan getting injured. It looks like Yahoo picked up the story and a video from Twitter is shown. Pretty wild.

    Brock auto


    This is a recently released card with Brock's first auto from a wrestling product. It looks like there is some strong interest in this card with 40 watchers and a current bid of $232.50. Brock's football cards are finally getting the respect they deserve so I would imagine it has carried over to a card like this.

  • Dpeck,

    In case you haven't noticed, Brock has an on card auto in the new 2015 Topps WWE Road to WrestleMania set. His auto is super short printed, and it has numbered color variation parallels.

    Also, the new WWE Battleground 2015 DVD has a limited Brock Lesnar Topps promo card in the 1st shipments. The packaging will have a sticker that says exclusive Topps trading card inside.

    Thanks for the feedback. This thread for some reason always gets hung up on page turns and there were like three posts I had never seen. I bumped the thread to post a link to that card. It looks like two others have already sold on EBAY for a highest price of $290.

    That is cool that they are including a promo card with the DVD.

    The talker Anderson is back to probably lose a 5th in a row.

    I am happy to see he is the underdog on the betting odds. He has his work cut out for him but you can never count Brock out.

    Great to see him get back to really fighting, and not just pretending to.
  • craig44craig44 Posts: 11,244 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Brock looked really good last night. He controlled most of the fight. he is a large dude. Saw him at a live wwe show around 10-12 years ago. he is huge.

    George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

  • DanBessetteDanBessette Posts: 6,421 ✭✭✭
    Did you see the pre fight press conference? The other dude looked much smaller standing there with Brock.
  • Dpeck100Dpeck100 Posts: 10,912 ✭✭✭✭✭
    It was a very exciting fight. Brock was smart to take his time engaging. Hunt can knock out anyone and can obviously take a lot of punishment. I just wanted to see Brock win and obviously a finish would have been great but he clearly won the fight.

    Vince has to be thrilled that he won as it makes his "fake" wrestler all the more real. That has been Brock's appeal from the beginning when he came into wrestling in 2002. A real wrestler who could really kick your butt.

    He is the only wrestler I really get excited to see in WWE. He just man handles people and looks awesome! I am really happy for him to come back and take a fight on short notice against a very tough guy and come out and have an impressive win and the Brock Lesnar story rolls on.



  • Dpeck100Dpeck100 Posts: 10,912 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I was so pumped when these Sweet Spot Brock's hit EBAY. I have been trying to land a Brock in gold for almost seven years and lost the only two I have ever seen on EBAY. I offered the seller a lot more than I won them for to end them early. He wanted more and then the news hit. Got them for the opening bids.

    Funny to see he is exempt from the wellness policy in the WWE!

    I already have a graded 8.5 but this one looks like a 9 hopefully.

    This is still a Pop 1 PSA 10 and this one looks very close.

    Thrilled to win this card at $78. The corners are the big issues I have faced with these and I think this card has a very solid shot at a 10. I will be cracking this baby if the back corners look as clean as the front. Interesting to see BGS has a few copies graded Gem Mint and there is one of the Gold graded Gem Mint too. I would love to see that card!

    Curious if he'd sign that card. He's an odd duck.

    I have seen a few copies of his most common base card from the Leaf Rookies and Stars set signed. That is the only football card so far I have seen. From all accounts I have heard Brock does indeed march to his own beat. He seems like a tough auto from an after market product as I have never seen his name in the recent years I have been getting cards signed on a signing list for a show or convention. He has been featured in some of the recent WWE products from Topps but personally I would rather a card like this signed.

    I am very curious to see what the future holds for him after Jon Jones got popped again for PED's. It looked very much like Brock was going to leave the WWE to train for another fight and he is a business man and would have made huge money for that one. The WWE played a nice swerve and kept the title on him at Summer Slam. Brock is such a tremendous performer and while I realize he may want to actually fight again, he is killing it right now in WWE with some really awesome performances.

  • VitoCo1972VitoCo1972 Posts: 6,128 ✭✭✭

    Eh, not that i want to get too deep into wrestling booking (I go back and forth from watching regularly to taking months off and I'm out at the moment) but he was much better in his early career before they changed his style. He actually gets to show much less of his incredible athleticism now. It's all monster-booking but would it kill him to run the ropes or DDT someone occasionally?

  • He lived here in MN for a while. Word was that he was not approachable in public. He did a charity signing years ago that had I known he'd be so tough I would have attempted.

  • Dpeck100Dpeck100 Posts: 10,912 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I like the early Brock in many ways better too but I will take Brock today vs. no Brock all day.

    I get to see Brock every day. Really hoping to replace the 9.

    The sticker on the top loader looks like this was a redemption card. Anyone know if that is how these came? I just checked the pop report and so far only three graded and all PSA 8's. Hopefully this one is nice.

  • Dpeck100Dpeck100 Posts: 10,912 ✭✭✭✭✭

    The signed Brock came today and the seller used a different protective holder to ship it. It was one of the magnetic thicker holders that many modern autographed cards are in. It was heavily taped shut and after getting the tape removed I got it to open. I set it back down and let it close and got in position to take it out and put it in the card saver. I started to open it and some how it went flying off the counter. I watched in horror as it made its way to the tile floor assuming I ruined the card. The holder stayed shut and no damage!! After thinking about it for a few hours I inserted another card in the holder and dropped it a few times to test it out. It only popped out once after a few hard trips to the floor. What a relief. A very nice copy but I must say these sticker auto cards are kind of rediculous. On card autos are far superior.

    Brock still lives at least the majority of the year in Central MN, his kids go to school there, etc. I was a bartender at a restaurant he and Rena would eat at several times a week up until I moved a year ago. He was always very approachable and polite. I am always confused when I read that people think he is surly or unapproachable as i never saw that side to him (or Rena for that matter).

    I don't own the card but will one day for sure. I lost an auction for a nice PSA 9 a few months ago and put in an offer on the PSA 10 that is for sale on eBay but it was declined. I plan to buy an Ernie Ladd as well.

    That is awesome that it is from Summer Slam where he wins the title from The Rock. Man the crowds were hot back then. Here is the finish.

    The corners are probably not sharp enough to grade a PSA 9 but I will take this card in any condition. Not sure what I plan to do with it. Either crack to sub or crack to have raw and hope one day he does a signing.
