How to Collect WWE Trading Cards

Fans of World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) collect all kinds of memorabilia associated with the company. Action figures, magazines, posters, DVDs and books are just a few of the collection categories for fans of the WWE. Popular to collect are WWE trading cards. The trading cards were originally available in the late 1980s and early 1990s, but recently they have returned and are more popular than ever. There are multiple ways you can get your hands on these trading cards; it all depends on how dedicated you are to owning the complete collection.

Instructions

- 1
  Purchase packs from retail stores. This is one of the easiest ways to get WWE trading cards. Packs include four five trading cards, and they can also include exclusive cards. The exclusive cards can be a "Topps Turkey Red" card, a "Ringside Relic" card or a WWE magnet.
- 2
  Use eBay to find specific cards. This can save a lot of money over buying packs and taking the chance of getting a special card. EBay also offers older cards that are no longer in circulation. The shipping of the cards is also cheap because of their weight and size.
- 3
  Purchase a WWE Tin Card set. There are no special cards in these sets, but they will guarantee you a portion of the collection without having to purchase separate packs. The tin set also features the likeness of a WWE superstar such as Hulk Hogan, John Cena or Triple H.
- 4
  Collect different WWE card series. If you focus on a specific series, you will be able to collect more of that series and complete it faster than collecting every series available. Some WWE card series are WWE Heritage, WWE Heritage II, WWE Heritage III, WWE Ultimate Rivals and WWE Raw Deal.
- 5
  Trade cards online. If you have doubles, you can find other WWE card collectors and trade your cards. Use wrestling forums like Wrestlingfigs.com to find fans who are willing to trade.
- 6
  Find rare cards packaged with other WWE products. "WWE Magazine" occasionally comes with exclusive cards, along with DVD releases like "Greatest Wrestling Managers of All Time."
