I have been actively buying sets that feature some of the bigger stars from wrestling's rookie cards and found a website that had a number of these sets for sale.
Today I got the package from the UK with seven complete sets in very nice condition. I was blown away at how cheap these sets were and the total cost of my order was just over $75.
I have seen this set sell for $100 on EBAY and while that may be a little high, $10.71 is certainly not. I went ahead and put in an order for another 10 sets and hopefully they will be able to fill the order. The site doesn't tell you how many they have left.
The cards were released only in Europe and sparingly show up for sale on EBAY. They are glossy and the set consists of 66 cards. The centering is all over the place and the corners on a few were an issue.

This set features Scott Hall's rookie cards and a few other rookie cards and early issues of a number of WCW wrestlers. At this time there are only 12 cards ever graded by PSA and all are of Arn Anderson so when some of these make their way to Newport Beach they will be the first of each to be graded.
I am working on a submission and plan to send some of these off later this month. I need to spend more time studying them and just broke up the sets to protect the cards and narrow down the number I choose to send in.
Here are the scans of the better cards.

Does Diamond Studd usually play with his nips?
One of my all-time favorites....such a shame he got caught up in the booze and drugs.
I apologize if it's been discussed here, but is the print-version of The Wrestling Card Price Guide a useful reference? I'm not interested in the pricing information, but rather something as a research tool and to appreciate the aesthetics more of the cards.
Thanks for sharing the cards....I see some high grades there!
The guy who made the guide is a nice guy and perhaps he would be able to better answer your question.
Here is the link to the online site and you can contact him here should you choose too.

This cell phone shot, coupled with the mullet, is truly classic!
I did see his website, thanks!
I think this card is awesome and is by far his best card. I love the pic too!

I bought out the remaining sets that they had in stock and I am going to work on getting some high grades from this set if possible.
The Scott Hall rookie is going to do really well I believe in high grade so hopefully I can find a PSA 10.
Don't waste your time and fees listing on ebay before getting in touch me by PM or at gregmo32@aol.com !
If there were a DVD compilation of those matches out there somewhere, I'd probably pay $300 for it.

Here are the two best Diamond Studd cards I got.
Here are the results from the first one of these to be sold. I am still looking for a higher grade copy and plan to send in some more of my raw examples.
I kept this one from the same submission and it is going to be extremely difficult to find many more of these in high grade. I was thrilled when I saw that this got a PSA 9.

I loaded the cards I have for the set and will be sending in a batch soon to have a complete graded set. When I purchased these from the site in the UK I bought 46 complete sets so I pulled the best cards of each I had and then narrowed down from there and those will be sent in. A few of my best cards have already been graded.
Here is the link to my set that is now in progress.

Here are the scans of the two that graded the highest. After my last submission I am out of any that will grade reasonably high.

Thanks for the kind words.
I ended up buying 46 sets and both of these cards are tougher in higher grade then one would think.

These cards came from the sets I graded. The seller is going to do pretty well on these I think.
