      Paul achieved the feat after wearing his 1998 Japanese Illustrator card on a chain for his WWE debut in April 2022.
      He wore the “Gem Mint 10” graded card alongside The Miz in a tag-team match against Rey and Dominik Mysterio at WrestleMania 38.
      Over a year on, he recalled the purchase on the latest episode of his Impaulsive podcast.
      During a discussion about Pokemon cards with guest Prince Royce, Paul explained: “I love it. I love it dude.

      “I mean if you like video games that doesn’t surprise me but yeah I spent $5.3million on the card. It’s crazy.”
      He later went on to explain why some cards are worth so much.
      “That’s the thing with the grading,” added the YouTuber turned wrestler.
      “These numbers you guys are hearing, PSA three, PSA four, like it’s one through 10 and if they have the smallest little fragmented one documentation, like any little thing it’ll ding at a point.

      “So to find a perfect 10 is insane and it’s the only thing besides, not even the actual card itself, the condition is the most important thing that determines the card’s value and it’s hard to get a 10.”
      Singer Royce then asked: “Do you think that the new certification is for real though?
      “Like do you think the new certifications are much harder? Like the graders are grading harder now than before? Because they’re saying ‘yo fake a 10 but it’s really nine or whatever’.”
      Paul responded by adding: “I totally think that. First off it’s done by humans so a person sitting there can change the value of your card from $30,000 to $250,000.”
      A keen Pokemon card trader, Paul has built an impressive collection of the items.
      He previously wore a £100,000 shiny Charizard for the ring walk before his exhibition bout against Floyd Mayweather in 2021.
      However, the total value of his collection is unknown, although Paul did once reveal he had lost £2.8million on fake Pokemon cards.

      Cristoph Kramer really has caught ‘em all as German World Cup winner reveals collection of 151 original Pokemon cards

      by

      CRISTOPH KRAMER is living out every boy’s dream… as the only man to have his hands on the World Cup AND all 151 original Pokemon cards.
      The Borussia Monchengladbach star has double cause to celebrate in this week – having helped his side to a 1-0 win over Arminia with Pokemon also embarking on its 25th anniversary.

      Christoph Kramer boasts a complete Pokemon collection

      The Borussia Monchengladbach star really has caught them all

      The franchise has become a worldwide phenomenon since its release in the mid 90s with old cards even fetching over £5,000 on Ebay.
      But midfielder Kramer has made the headlines for catching them all… and he didn’t even need a footballer’s salary to do so.
      He told SPORTbible: “I guess every child born in the 90’s was a huge Pokémon fan.
      “It was great to collect the cards in primary school and it was always a kind of a childhood dream to have them all.

      “I have to say that I bought some cards as well, but I didn’t pay lots.
      “I don’t know exactly how much the value is, but I hope the time plays for me, like we would say in German. But I would never sell them.
      “I think most of them [my team-mates] did the same as a kid, but they gave their cards away and stopped collecting. But they say respect and congratulations to me!”
      Depending on the audience, fans will either be eager to ask Kramer about winning the 2014 World Cup with Germany – or getting his hands on Charizard.

      But the man himself has insisted football remains his main focus with Gladbach into the last-16 of the Champions League.
      When asked if he preferred Team Rocket to his own Bundesliga team, Kramer added: “No of course not!
      “Pokémon is a childhood hobby. But football is my one and only passion.”
