Selling The Merch Collector’s Corner
This feature piece is called Collector’s Corner, in which I shine a spotlight on someone who collects Pro Wrestling items. This week I decided to show a miniature version of Matt Cardona's collection; this was released by Yahoo! Life in March of 2020. I strongly recommend listening to Major Figure Wrestling Podcast if you enjoy collectibles.
