200 WWE Stickers
I know what you're thinking: less than a year into running CBW, and Canadian Bulldog has already run out of cool shit to talk about.
But that simply isn't true. I just noticed these bad boys at my local Dollarama (think the Canadian equivalent of Dollar Tree or Family Dollar), was absolutely floored by the price tag, and felt compelled to share my find.
200 wrestling stickers for just $1.25! I defy anyone to top that price. It works out to just one point six cents for each creepy sticker of Randy Orton.
Although these stickers are relative newcomers to the shelves of Dollarama, one would have to figure that the production lag for this book was roughly a year.
Even so, the roster represented here is fairly current, as are their respective logos on the stickers to the right. Sure, Rey Mysterio has since been placed under contract limbo, and Damien Sandow's logo could use some updating, but otherwise they pretty much nailed it.
After all, there are no CM Punk stickers here, no group logo for The Shield and even the WWE Network-era logo that was introduced last summer is here, front and center among the other decals. Hard to knock that.
And a Jerry "The King" Lawler logo sticker? For what possible reason? Unless I live in Memphis and am itching for something to put on the front of my Trapper Keeper (not intended to make a Jerry Lawler-high school students connection; sorry), I can't imagine the circumstances that would lead me to using this in anything beyond an article about 200 wresting stickers for less than two bones.

The hidden gem of this book is its final page, in which a bunch of WWE superstars are displayed in head shot format. And really, there's no one big on the main roster except for possibly Rusev who isn't represented (and no, I'm not counting Tyson Kidd or Bo Dallas as "big" for the purposes of this sticker book).
Still, I'm wondering what these tiny stickers could be used for. Perhaps if a teacher is grading a test and the tried-and-true letter grade approach isn't working?
See, if you get the smiling faces of John Cena or Dolph Ziggler, you've probably done well. Ryback or Triple H screaming at you? Needs more improvement. And I have no effing clue what kind of message an Erick Rowan sticker would give a young student.....
For Less Than Two Bucks!
Are some of the logo stickers stretching things just a tad? Sure.
For example, there has never been that great a need for a William Regal logo, even when he was the guy who would randomly clobber fan favorites with brass knuckles. So for them to come up with something when he only makes random appearances on NXT these days? I'm kind of second-guessing that particular choice.
Oh... and I suppose the logo maker was playing hooky from work the day that this gem made it's way to print? Much like creative, the sticker makers have little time for Cesaro.
