Overview
- Karl‑Anthony Towns acquired a one‑of‑one Topps Cody Rhodes card bearing the inscription “He wanted my soul?!” and Rhodes publicly reacted to the purchase.
- Cody Rhodes said he hopes Towns keeps the card in his locker and that the card’s energy could help the Knicks as they pursue an NBA title.
- Towns has also been pursuing other high‑value WWE cards, including a public $60,000 cashout offer for a one‑of‑one John Cena WrestleMania patch autograph and a recent outbid for a Randy Orton patch autograph that sold for $42,100.
- The exact amount Towns paid for the Cody Rhodes card has not been disclosed, though his visible offers and bids have drawn attention to secondary market activity.
- One‑of‑one and patch‑autograph Topps cards combine event‑worn material and signatures, making them especially scarce, and public posts by buyers like Towns can draw bidding interest, raise prices, and widen mainstream attention for the collectibles market.
