I don't know what Panini did, but the NFL did the same thing last month. I don't trust Fanatics and Michael Rubin though. This seems like them trying to get the license early.

In all seriousness, there did seem to be an active recall on WWE panini cards in the past month or so from my local Target so something did seem up.
I'm personally happy they're moving on. I really liked the 2022 Panini cards, but this year's were incredibly disappointing, especially for what's supposed to be a premium card series.

I really sat here and racked my brain over what WWE and Italian sandwiches have in common
Turns out it's a trading card thing

The fact that it takes the bulk of the quote to explain what "Panini" is exemplifies the awful standard of writing in wrestling journalism.

This is just fanatics trying to monopolize the trading card market. I'm sure fanatics pointed out something about the contract to the NFL and WWE that would allow fanatics to take over right away and give them a sweet deal. Fanatics did this to Topps to the point that basically Topps went from 1 day going to go public on the stock exchange and then the next day Topps sold to fanatics after fanatics got the MLB deal.
Fanatics makes some nice high end cards like flawless, immaculate, and patches and plates. I'll miss those cards. I assume fanatics will do something comparable.
