Eddie Guerrero died under unusual circumstances, too, but at least he didn't take anyone with him like Benoit.

Still, a nice collection of autographs from your recent boxes, Benoit notwithstanding. Even so, I would imagine there would be some interest in that card. What a terrible story that was! Hopefully, his is one of the brains being studied for effects of concussions on athletes.

I know the former NFL Chicago Bears player Dave Duerson, who committed suicide not to long ago, wrote in his suicide note that he'd like his brain to be studied for that purpose. And again, at least he didn't take anyone else with him when he checked out.

Ahh, glad to hear that and sorry for the misinformation. I must've confused him with someone else. I've edited the post above so as to not jinx the guy any more than I already may have!

Easy done,wrestling has a shocking death rate.thats why i dont go to live shows anymore.i would reconsider if they sorted it out?the drug testing program is a joke with the likes of John Cena walking around?

Back to the cards.anyone else noticed that these are getting harder to find.5 years ago they was all over the place for £5 to £10.dried up now!maybe its because of the deaths of some wrestlers that these are becoming scarcer and that there autographs can still be found in packs?

If i remember correctly there were 3 different sets with wcw autos in?lots of mid-carders were easy to find.the top guys were alot harder.Benoit was a midcarder at the time these were signed but i have never seen another?

would any of those autographs happen to be for sale or for trade? or any idea where I can get a case or some boxes of the 98 wcw product?

also, the top guys aren't any harder to get than the mid carders. each guy signed over 1000 cards except for a couple. dean malenko was one that didn't sign as much as the others.
