I don't break much nowadays but the WWE sets are always really tempting and OTCards is the only guy in the area that seems to bring in hobby + The Canadian Exclusive stuff. He had 2 blasters left so I grabbed that and 1 hobby box to go.

The Canadian Exclusive stuff appears to be really short printed this year. By my estimation there were only about 85 cases printed.

Didn't tally up the bronze or authority inserts.

Not shown: 2 Bret Hart Blaster inserts, 7 Rock Inserts

Here were the hits out of the hobby box and the 2nd Canadian Exclusive blaster. Not a huge fan of the medallion concept. I didn't like it when they did it in the UFC products either.

Owens is Silver, Bunny is /10, Rollins is /299. The Hart is cool! It's /99 comes around 1 per case.

As I was thinking about how skunked I was getting out of the hobby box, last pack yielded this!

Bayley auto 14/25!

So, I would've been happy calling it a day with the Bayley auto, but out of the 1st Canadian Exclusive Blaster bonus pack popped this!

Bret Hart Auto Relic 9/10!

I think I will quit while I'm ahead.
 
I love that last card, but when did "Hit Man" become 2 words?? Is it "Under Taker" too??lol

He was originally "Hit Man" when he got to WWF in the mid 80s. I think it went further into "The Hitman" territory as he went into singles and into WCW. I don't know when it reverted back but I assume it's somehow more PC for his nickname to be "Hit Man" which implies...I dunno...radio DJ? Guy who hits people? rather than an actual Hitman. It's kind of weird but whatever works I guess.

Weird fact though...listen to Howard Finkel announce Bret. He NEVER refers to him as "The Hitman" ... he always announced him as Bret "Hit Man" Hart.
