Matt Cardona has spent years building one hell of a wrestling collection, and apparently some of the cards sitting in it are worth serious money. The WWE star just revealed his five most valuable cards — and the top one alone is worth more than $15,000.
Taking to Instagram, Matt Cardona showed off the five cards and revealed they’re worth more than $20,000 altogether. Coming in at number five was a 1985 Topps Hulk Hogan card valued at $781.
“Altogether, these five cards are worth over $20,000. Let’s check out my most valuable cards. Number five: The 1985 Hulk Hogan Topps card.”
Cardona kept things in the family for number four, showing off a Topps Garbage Pail Kids card featuring his wife, Chelsea Green. That one is valued at $1,098. Things jumped considerably with number three. Matt Cardona’s 1998 Comic Images card featuring The Rock is worth $2,323.But wrestling didn’t completely dominate Cardona’s list. His second-most valuable card is a 1995 SkyBox Woody card from Toy Story, which he jokingly called Woody’s “rookie card.” That one comes in at $3,651.
“Number two: The 1995 SkyBox Woody from Toy Story — his rookie card.”
Then there’s the big one. Cardona’s most valuable card is a 1999 Topps WCW Macho Man Randy Savage autograph card valued at a whopping $15,082.
“Number one: The 1999 Topps WCW Macho Man Randy Savage autograph card. Ooh yeah!”
Those five cards add up to $22,935, with the signed Macho Man card accounting for well over half of that total. Cardona’s collecting obsession clearly isn’t just taking up space in his house — some of that cardboard is worth more than a lot of people’s cars.
