The special battle took place between two very famous wrestling couples: on the one hand Ray and Dominic Mysterio (Oscar and Dominic Gutierrez), a father and son who are each a WWE legend in their own right; And on the other hand the YouTuber Logan Paul, who in recent years has made the transition from a network-thriller to a wrestler, and “The Mise” (Michael Miznin). The latter two defeated the first two, before the latter decided to knock his teammate to the floor as well – but, as mentioned, it all seemed to be meant for a publicist from something else that happened behind the scenes at the end of the fight.

Paul takes the stage wearing a necklace around his neck with the most expensive Pokemon card in the world – a Piccolo card with only 39 copies available and defined by PSA, a company for verifying and rating rare items, level 10 – the highest level for a rare item. Paul bought the card at a private auction held in Dubai in July 2021, and paid no less than $ 5,275,000 for it – or, in words, more than $ 5 million. 4 million of them he paid in cash, and the balance came in the form of another rare Pokemon card valued in advance at $ 1.275 million.

After the fight, behind the scenes, a representative of the Guinness Book of Records waited for Paul, who presented him with an official certificate recognizing his card as the most expensive Pokemon card ever sold. Paul said at the impromptu ceremony that “I love Pokemon, and the fact that it’s confirmed through a Guinness record – it’s crazy. Tonight is a wild night. It does not feel real.”
Congratulations to @LoganPaul on achieving his first Guinness World Records title!
