Lots of guys who have appeared in @waxateria sets here. The real Supanitro, Dee Vibe and Max capacity.
Of course @MaltaTheDamager returns to take on
Dash. A great event from Wrestling for a Cause💪
#Waxateria
Malta the Damager returns to the ring to face off against The artist formerly known as Dash. July 25th 2026.
Will Malta give an absolute bollocking to his opponent, or will his legacy be tarnished? #indiewrestling
So @damage365Radio think their design, ideas, and products are superior to @waxateria. But they literally ripped off 2024 Topps baseball series one LOL. Great idea! And products? We put out actual sets, not custom cards. Stay in your lane.

A T206 mystery (to me) 🧵
One of my favorite things about the T206 set is the hidden history in the backgrounds. The artists often depicted players exactly where they played.
The Joe Lake card: the mystery of that "chapel" in the background solved? 1/5
4/4. His 47.7 career WAR is higher than it looks as the home run was still a rare occurrence. He played his entire career in the deadball era, retiring 105 years ago. #t206#deadballera#deadball
3/4 He also once held the record for the most double plays turned by a first baseman in a single season. Though the Gold Glove award wasn’t created until 1957, Ed was considered an elite first baseman in the era.
Deadball era 🧵
1/4 When playing for the Pittsburgh Rebels of the short lived Federal League, the teams ferry collided with a bridge causing the boat to sink. Ed Kontechey heroically pulled many of them to safety. He also played a game the same day.
Ed Abbaticchio was the first Italian American baseball player. At least he was the first to use his Italian surname without regard for the discrimination he likely endured. He was also the first professional two-way player, as he also played football professionally.
If you look at the background, you will see the Statue of Liberty. The photographer, Carl Horner took the photos at a studio and then amazing artists drew in backgrounds. This was likely a depiction of Washington Park in Park Slope, which still stands today. In that era, #t206
Deadball era: players were paid little money, needed to work during the offseason. If that was the case today, and we used the same “logic”, would Ohtani and Judge be considered inferior for hitting home runs off “Uber drivers” or “retail workers”? See how stupid that sounds?
Solly was considered the first great “utility” man in baseball. He got back to back rings with the @cubs in 1907 and 1908. Of course it would be more than a century until the Cubs would bring it home again.
