Logan paid $5.27 million US for the extremely rare card in a private auction and even went in person to Dubai to collect it. He even wore the slabbed card in a diamond encrusted necklace to the ring at this weekend's Wrestlemania, something he has famously done with his favourite Pokemon cards before.
Pokémon cards started as a childhood craze but for collectors today they are also investments. The Pikachu Illustrator is reportedly numbered to only 39 worldwide and the "perfect" nature of the PSA 10 grade makes this card a one-of-a-kind.
