This is legitimately one of the ugliest fucking world title belts I've ever seen in my whole life. Fucking TNA has a more prestigious-looking title than this. I'd even rather have the spinner belt back over this piece of shit. What were they thinking?
>>1412224
I agree.
>>1412224
I actually agree. It looks like a toy
needs more gold
Post your favorite belts
I'll start with one of the wackiest belts. I really like the Gift of the Gods belt from LU.
>>1412262
>>1412262
>literally only looks good on cena
GOAT
>>1412272
Currently, IWGP HW belt and IC belt are the two best looking belts.
My favorite was always this one.
It doesn't look as bad as the winged eagle though
>>1412403
Man stfu
You know what really ruins it? All that black dead space. It immediately makes your mind regurgitate. The lack of gold utterly disqualifies it as legitimate and accentuates the predetermined nature of rasslin'. I agree with the notion that it looks like a toy, an unfinished one at that.
>>1412224
Every belt they have now looks designed by an 11 year old
>>1412274
Because it was literally MADE for Cena. On anybody else it looks ridiculous.
GOAT coming through
>>1412425
It looked good on punk
>inb4 "Hi Phil!"
>>1412425
The rated r one looked good on edge
If we're talking about belts that look good on certain guys, new Suitsaro would have looked fucking amazing walking to the ring in a full suit, then unbuttoning it to reveal the IC proudly around his waist.
>>1412274
>CM Punk didn't rock that shit
I'm posting this again, but this was one of the final concepts for the WHC, they ended up with the previous alteration of OPs image.
And the remaining are here.

>>1412581
>>1412404
It's stf now actually
>>1412277
Agreed on all points.
I actually really like the current title, but this will always be my favorite design.
>>1412640
JBL looked based with that belt
>>1412277
Yes thank you. This will always be the best belt
>>1412640
This one was too small. Replaced the two best belts in history with something too small. However, I feel like they redesigned it larger and didn't say anything when they gave it to Brock lesnar. Compare how big it looks on Lesnar with how it looks on HHH and Undertaker
>>1412640
Taker, JBL, Angle, Big Show, Lesnar, Eddie all looked bad ass with this belt.
>>1412224
This belt is innovative, I really like how the plates on the sides get replaced based on the current champion. I guess WWE wants their branding to be the highlight and it kind of works.
However, the sides have too much going on while the middle looks plain.
>>1412274
I was fine with this being Cena's belt. When Punk won it I expected a new one. For like 10 years that was THE belt. Fuck Cena so much.
>>1412262
Got a shot of it with all the medallions in it?
>>1412457
Hi Phil. Are you going to get """"injured""""" again before your """"""fight""""""
>>1412224
They got butthurt over people buying their belts, stripping them, and jury rigging their own titles onto them instead of buying one custom legitimately from a trophy shop. Yes, they made their belts that way as a failsafe against people BUYING THEIR MERCHANDISE.
>>1412224
It's the black background of the W. It should be gold.
>>1412584
Looks like game of thrones meets WWE. Get this faggot shit out of my face niggers
>>1412810
I'm not sure this is the actual belt but here you go
>>1412640
Yep, this is the one.
>>1412272
The GOAT
>>1412224
They gotta promote wwe and the network. What better way to do that than with a big fucking logo and a black background for contrast
>>1412277
This was the belt of my youth
Rock on anon
>>1412640
Suited Eddie and Lesnar well
Reminder that this belt is the GOAT of GOATS.
>>1413024
Wcw version looked 10x better. The flatter one that was more silver and way bigger
>>1413029
>>1413029
I was thinking about posting that instead of the WWE one, but I didn't feel like it. Also patrician taste.
>>1412274
I feel like Punker and Edge wore it well too
>>1412262
On the topic of LU.
I'm glad Cage killed the first belt
>>1413058
To be fair anything looks better than cena holding another championship
>>1413010
this is a good belt
>>1413081
UPVOTE! XDD
>>1413086
Maybe if you watched for more than 2 months you'd see how tiring him with that was
>>1412698
Agreed, I always had the same opinion about the nwa belt
>>1412640
This was shit which is why it was replaced so quickly.
Current IC title is one of the best in the bizz, shit is beauitufl
>>1412452
I really love that they don't clean the dirt medal.
I have this dumb idea that a World Title should be FUCKING massive, not just large, but thick too, it should look like it weights a ton (it doesn't NECESSARILY has to, obviously) so you can see whoever has it is a big fucking deal just because he's carrying it around. Also, that would finally make spots where a wrestler hits the other with a title make sense.
>>1413164
So... The wcw big gold?
>>1413166
The WCW belt is a really thin metal plate, though.
:-)
>>1412224
It is indeed terrible. Way too "bling bling nigger".
>>1413215
They really wanted to keep meth Hardy so much
Don't these modern WWE belts need to be collaborated with Mattel? It makes sense why they look like toys in that regard.
>>1413215
ANOTHER ME IS WHAT THERE'LL NEVER BE
>>1413151
This one is cool as crap.
>>1413151
A literal fucking toy
>>1413151
Can anyone explain the concept of an IC belt, isn't someone who is a champion of all the continents just the world champion?
>>1412262
IS NOT BELT
IS CHAMPIONSHIP
DELET THIS
>>1412585
Jej
>>1413151
That's not even the best IC belt, let alone the best title belt
I'd only shell out 350 for this, thing of beauty
I think it looks decent in certain angles/lighting but other times it does look like crap, it should have more gold
>>1413151
That is by far their best looking current title. And that's sad
>>1413460
The diamonds in it makes up for the lack of gold.
>>1413098
Honestly, so much this. Rewatching old PPVs because I missed most of like 03-09 and the long period of times where Cena just wins every match clean is fucking brutal.
>>1413302
>The WWE Intercontinental Championship was originally known as the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship. Following the title's introduction in 1979, Pat Patterson became the inaugural champion on September 15. The title's creation came as a result of Patterson defeating Ted DiBiase to win the WWF North American Heavyweight Championship, and defending his title in a tournament to be unified with a South American Heavyweight Championship in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The title later became known as the WWF Intercontinental Championship.
Who do we blame for this? Who is in charge of this design and its approval?
>>1413721
>>1413736
That one looked good though
>>1413302
The Intercontinental Champion is champion of only the continents. The WORLD Champion is also champion of the oceans.
>>1412471
That's Jason Statham, you idiot.
>>1413215
But that fit him perfectly, though. If this were used like the spinner belt and became the standard for everyone, then there'd be a problem.
>>1413302
It means Champion of the continent you belong to.
For e.g. Rusev would be the champion of Europe not Bulgaria
Khali would be champion of Asia instead of India.
Roman Reigns would be champion of North America instead of United States.
Alberto Del Rio would Be champ of North America instead of Mexico.
Kevin Ownes same as last two instead of Canada.
>>1412991
I don't watch LU. What's the concept of this? Seems like it's King of the ring or something.
Very brand centric and oot. Vince knows how to make people recognize
>>1414073
It's like Money in the Bank.
The wrestlers wrestle for 7 medallions. Once all 7 medallions are in wrestlers hands then theres a match between those wrestlers to decide who is going to get all 7 medallions.
Before the match theres a ceremony where they put those medallions in that belt. Whomever wins the match get the belt with all the medallions and can cash in whenever he wants BUT he has to talk with the promoter first because the promoter wants to promote said match.
>>1414120
That's a superb concept.
Anytime/place rule does not apply? I'm talking more in lines of how the Non-Cena MITB is cashed in usually.
>>1414138
They do not apply.
You HAVE to talk with the Promoter and the Promoter has one week to promote your match.
What could happen in theory is that the gift of the belt champion hears that the Lucha Underground Champion is defending the belt next week and he goes to Dario(the promoter) and say that he wants to cash in the Gift of the Gods next week after the match has happened. Dario could then either make it a three way or make it so the winner goes against the GotG Champion right after.
I say that in theory because nobody tried to do that so who knows.
>>1414145
>>1414138
Also just like the MITB if the beltholder doesn't cash in for too long then someone can challenge him for it.
The first part of this season was mostly Fenix and King Cuerno fighting for this belt so they could challenge Mil Muertes.
After a cash, then the 7 medallions go away and the wrestlers have to fight for it again.
>>1413024
>having to scroll this far to find Big Gold
I fucking swear I'm the only cunt here that isn't a teenager.
Am I the only one who thinks this design of the IC title is the best?
>>1412224
Hey it isn't as ugly as the previous one, the logo didn't even fucking fit.
>side plates for the other belts when?
>>1414166
I always liked that design as well, but when they retired it and brought it back, the new one was way too big. It was fine the size it was.
Go find a pic of Lance Storm or Angle or Benoit as IC champ and then look at CM Punk or Shelton Benjamin if you don't think there's a size difference.
>>1414166
just looking at that belt fills me with nostalgia. really was a GOAT belt. Y2J wore it best
forever the best championship
>>1413460
The belt made for Andre the Giant looked great
>>1413460
red stripe should be thick stones like the white in the w, otherwise it looks like cheap enamel
4 corner stones of the nameplate should be red
>>1412262
>Not posting the GOAT LU title belt.
The Aztec Gods should curse you.
>>1414958
kek, this belt was just there for cage to destroy it
>>1414958
>goat LU Belt
>posts the one ripped in half like cardboard by the FUCKING MACHINE
>>1412274
>>literally only looks good on cena before he became hogan 2.0
FTFY
>>1414958
>Dario introduces this one
>eh it looks cheap
>Cage rips it in half
>oh boy here we go.jpg
>mfw >>1414963 was introduced
Good shit
>>1413001
so if it's not made from the pieces of the old world title why did they even make it look like it was?
>>1413215
>Brother Nero championship
>>1413460
It would look better if not for all that negative space behind the wwe symbol.
>>1412254
Yeah, just add more flair to replace the black areas, and remove the red streak underneath the W and it should be fine tee bee aitch.
>>1416391
>No clue why they didn't drop it the first time he lost it.
Gotta make Cena relevant, even when he's not the champ
>>1416538
Which made no sense. It would have been like keeping the Smoking Skull belt as the official title years after Austin dropped it.
>>1412640
this nigga knows
>>1416560
>People look at the belt
>"oh yeah that's JAHN CENA'S belt"
Keeping him relevant
>>1412277
do they still sell this one?
>>1412640
This.
Lesnar never looked more beast than with this belt
