It took the Boss to knock Adele’s unstoppable “21” out of the top spot on Billboard’s Top 200.

Bruce Springsteen scored his 10th No. 1 debut with his latest opus, “Wrecking Ball,” pushing 196,000 copies last week, according to Nielsen SoundScan, barely nudging the Grammy-winning powerhouse out of her plum position on top. Adele held the top spot for 23 consecutive weeks.
