Karl-Anthony Towns Posts $60,000 Bounty for 1-of-1 John Cena Patch Auto

The move highlights a star athlete using a public cash offer to influence prices in the high-end card market.

Overview

  • Karl-Anthony Towns announced on his trading-cards Instagram that The Big Bodega will pay $60,000 for the 1-of-1 2026 Topps Royalty John Cena WrestleMania 41 patch autograph.
  • The offer follows Towns getting outbid on a similar Randy Orton WrestleMania 41 patch autograph that sold for $42,100 on eBay.
  • Collectors on social media said the Cena card will likely clear the $60,000 cashout, with many predicting bids could reach six figures.
  • The Cena card includes a piece of the patch he wore at WrestleMania 41, a premium feature that drives rarity and demand for one-of-one cards.
  • If accepted at $60,000, the sale would rank as the No. 2 WWE card price on record behind The Rock’s $126,000 Prizm 1-of-1, according to Heavy.
