2026 Upper Deck AEW is the flagship product for All Elite Wrestling and is in its 6th year of production, making it the longest running AEW card release on the market. The release closely resembles Upper Deck’s flagship hockey brand, but without the iconic Young Guns rookies. The set does seem to include “First UD” stamped cards, similar to the “1st Bowman” stamps seen in some Topps branded products to indicate the first time an individual has been included in the brand. Unlike the NHL flagship, this release does offer a decent chance at an autograph hit, with autograph and relic parallels of the base set being offered, as well as a  couple standalone auto inserts. Hobby boxes offer 1 hit each, as well as various inserts or parallels. A full breakdown of the checklist will be available at Breakninja.com.

Matt’s Opinion: While I have never watched AEW, (I quit watching WWE years ago), I must say that this is an interesting set. There does seem to be decent value, and the inclusion of autos in a flagship UD release makes me happy. I don’t think the “First UD” stamp is necessary though.
