Karl-Anthony Towns Offers $60,000 Bounty for One-of-One John Cena Card

The public cash offer from the Knicks center highlights intense demand for scarce WWE patch-autograph collectibles.

Overview

  • Towns, posting from his trading-cards account The Big Bodega, offered $60,000 for the one-of-one 2026 Royalty John Cena WrestleMania patch autograph card.
  • A one-of-one patch auto is a single-copy card that pairs an on-card signature with a piece of event-worn gear, which drives extreme scarcity and bidding wars.
  • Collectors on social media said the offer looked low and predicted the Cena card could fetch six figures, with some estimates reaching $100,000 to $200,000.
  • The move follows Towns getting outbid on a Randy Orton WrestleMania 41 patch autograph that sold for $42,100 in an eBay auction.
  • On the court, New York swept Philadelphia in the second round as Towns averaged 15.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, 7.5 assists, and 1.3 blocks, and the team now waits for Detroit or Cleveland.
