In the ever-changing world of trading cards, it was announced on January 1, 2025, that WWE and Topps would reunite. WWE has been with Panini since 2021 on a deal that was supposed to extend until 2026. However, WWE attempted to legally end the agreement in 2023. WWE alleged Panini did not produce the agreed-upon cards in both physical and digital format. A settlement was agreed upon in November 2023.

Moving forward, Topps will have the rights to WWE trading cards and will begin producing them immediately. Despite this, WWE trading cards are still available on the Panini website for purchase. Products like WWE Select 2024 and National Treasures have been released over the last couple of months. You can find out breakdown of WWE National Treasures here on DraftKings Network.
