WrestleMania Welcomes New Era of WWE Cards
In the world of WWE, nothing is bigger than WrestleMania — and now, that energy is getting stitched directly into trading card history.
In conjunction with this month’s blockbuster WWE events in Las Vegas, Topps and WWE are launching TWO all-new, patch programs: the WrestleMania Patch and the Main Roster Debut Patch.
These aren’t your typical relic inserts. For the first time, WWE Superstars will wear elevated “Logoman”-style patches that will be pulled straight from the action and turned into one-of-one autographed trading cards, complete with authentication, event details, and the exact moment captured.
Let’s break it down
WrestleMania Patch
If you’re in the ring at WrestleMania 41, April 19-20, you’ll be rocking one of these. Every Superstar scheduled to compete will wear the WrestleMania Patch, with many wearing it directly on their boots. After the final bell rings, the patches come off — and head straight into exclusive cards that feature the Superstar’s autograph, an official COA/Fanatics hologram, and the exact match date.
Main Roster Debut Patch
Then, starting with Monday Night RAW on April 21, any Superstar making their first official main roster appearance will debut the Main Roster Debut Patch. Superstars sporting debut patches will continue with every future RAW or SmackDown debut. Post-match these patches will also be transformed into autographed, authenticated one-of-ones, permanently preserving the moment that career began on the big stage.
Expanding Debut Patches to the WWE
This is a game-changing first for WWE trading cards. While Topps introduced debut patch programs with MLB in 2023 and expanded to MLS in 2024, this marks WWE’s first foray into high-profile match-used patch cards.
These patches are Superstar milestones, and each card is a one-of-a-kind time capsule built for fans who live for the pop, the pyro, and the payoff.
Keep your eyes peeled: sets featuring these WrestleMania Patch and Main Roster Debut Patch cards will land in retail and hobby shops later this year.
