TNA's new Title Belts

[The One]

So apparently TNA have their new World and Tag Title (as well as possibly a new X Division Title according to some). Does anyone have a pic of any of these new belts?

[IC Champion]

I too would like to see them

[Xero]

I bet they're hexagons.

[Jordan]

They prolly have six sides

[weather vane]

No matter what they look like everyone will complain anyways.

[KayfabeMan]

They're all spinner belts.

It's the wave of the future.

[The One]

Well not every title can be as classy looking as the Spinner Belt.

[IC Champion]

Well not every title can be as classy looking as the Spinner Belt.
Its REAL, its damn REAL.

[6to1]

They're all spinner belts.

It's the wave of the future.
the spinner works little kids love the replaca belts gives them something to do during a boring match.

[apokalypse7]

maybe if the the new belts are shiny, you will tune in that much longer.







seriously, the old belts just look like crap! wait, TNA looks like crap!

[The One]

I'm sorry boy, were you just knocking the NWA World Heavyweight and NWA World Tag Team Championship belts? If so, you and I are going to be having some words...

[Xero]

What ToVo said.

Seriously, the NWA championships are awesome.

[IC Champion]

What ToVo said.

Seriously, the NWA championships are awesome.
100% agreed

[FourFifty]

100% agreed

Yea, what he said.

[Crossrine]

Are they going to pull a Shane Douglas and throw down the NWA belts? How are they going to just transition?

[PepperCarrotMan]

The new ones are made of Cardboard and have Jeff Jarett's pictures pasted on them so the wrestlers always remember who owns those belts...

[apokalypse7]

it was more a shot at TN GAY.

I respect the feel of the original belts. There are very few belts that are done well, I LOVE the WHC, but it's a throwback too....

[The One]

Uh...what?

[Xero]

it was more a shot at TN GAY.
Hope you didn't strain yourself to come up with that one.

[The One]

I look forward to tomorrow when apokalypse7 forgets about this place. :y:

[Mr. Nerfect]

Apparently they're meant to be "jewel belts," whatever that means. Apparently that connects to them being pretty.

They should bring in the new TNA X-Division Championship post-Sacrifice. I expect Jay Lethal to walk away Champion. With Black Machismo as Champion, Chris Sabin can team with Alex Shelley, and pitch some tents. And because you just know TNA wants the attention back on them from ROH's PPV announcement, we'll see TNADD kick in even further. And with Russo behind the book, you know what that means? TITLE CHANGES~!

Seriously, the new X-Division belt should be introduced by Jay Lethal on the first edition of iMpact! that he is Champion.

I have a feeling we're going to see the first TNA World Heavyweight Champion crowned at Slammiversary. I see Kurt Angle winning the NWA World Heavyweight Championship at Sacrifice (scoring the fall against Sting, so Cage can keep his streak), and then claiming he wants to usher in a new era of TNA wrestling, or something. Cue King of the Mountain Match to crown the first TNA Champion.

Introducing the TNA World Tag Team Championship is tricky, but this is how I would do it: At Sacrifice, Scott Steiner and Tomko pin Team 3D to win the NWA World Tag Team Championship. The LAX are pissed because they weren't involved in the fall. Tomko and Steiner won't give them a shot, so Homicide and Hermandez, using the announcement of a new TNA World Heavyweight Championship by Kurt Angle, bring in new tag belts, and claim to be the TNA World Tag Team Champions. Tomko and Steiner take offence, so we get a match signed between the two teams at Slammiverary with both titles on the line. The LAX win, then thrown down the NWA World Tag Team Championship, and continue on as TNA World Tag Team Champs.

[Theo Dious]

I still think that the NWA and Tag champions should just "become" the TNA and TNA Tag champions so that the legacy of their title history isn't interrupted.

[BigDaddyCool]

They will probably look so bizarre.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I still think that the NWA and Tag champions should just "become" the TNA and TNA Tag champions so that the legacy of their title history isn't interrupted.

I have had the same passing idea. I don't think it's a bad one, at all.

Checking TNA's title history, you'll see they start the NWA World Heavyweight Title history with Ken Shamrock, who officially crowned the first Champion of the TNA era. I think just changing the names of the belts, and only dating the history back that far is acceptable.

[chrisat928]

I always thought wrestlers went to TNA to win the NWA Worldheavyweight Title. If that title is no longer there, what the hell's the point?
The King of the Mountain match is another stupid match from TNA. You have to pin someone before climbing a ladder and putting the title on a hook. What the hell?

[Xero]

I always thought wrestlers went to TNA to win the NWA Worldheavyweight Title.
Translation:
IT'S STILL REAL TO ME, DAMMIT!

[owenbrown]

They will probably announced as THE GREATEST BELTS IN THE HISTORY OF OUR SPORT! :shifty:

Now if only the NWA titles could somehow regain some meaning and prestige again, then I'd be satisfied.

How long before there's a thread to microsoft paint the new TNA belt?

My God, is there anything you can't do?

Maybe it's just me, but that belt actually looks pretty damn good. I'd much prefer it than the John Cena Championship on RAW.

[Xero]

Well, I can't make Val Venis win the championship, or main event WrestleMania...

Oh, wait a minute, yes I can.

:eek: ***Bows before the greatness that is Xero Limit***

[Xero]

And I consider that one of my worst...

Well, in terms of small details anyway...

[Outsider]

Val Venis on a programme other than HeAt would just confuse me. If that happened then up would become down and cows would start eating people.


.....John Cena would still be champ in the alternative universe as well though.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Well, I tried to give it a fix, but since I don't know how to use Photoshop, I just did a quick MS Paint job.:y:

[Theo Dious]

What you need to do is repace the spinning WWE logo with a schlong.

[Xero]

See, I kept it in Alienoid's vision.

[Theo Dious]

If it had been Alienoid's true vision London and Kendrick would be in the background with the WWE tag titles around their waist, the World Tag titles around their necks, and the ECW tag titles around their right thighs.

[Theo Dious]

Photoshop THAT, bitch!

[IC Champion]

ECW has tag team titles?

[Theo Dious]

Well they did, and they've discussed introducing them into the current product.

[Skippord]

Well, I can't make Val Venis win the championship, or main event WrestleMania...

Oh, wait a minute, yes I can.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g122/sandman3g/Wrestling/valchamp.jpg
Val Venis finds the old WWE title and defends it before Wrestlemania on Heat?

[Xero]

If it had been Alienoid's true vision London and Kendrick would be in the background with the WWE tag titles around their waist, the World Tag titles around their necks, and the ECW tag titles around their right thighs.
Actually, pretty sure his EXACT vision is...

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g122/sandman3g/Wrestling/stableofchampionslol.jpg

[Theo Dious]

So London is actually a 1-man tag champion?

In any case, bravo sir.

[Xero]

Nah, Kendrick's holding his title, it's mostly hidden by the trash can.

[Blitz]

Wait, why do they need a new X Division title? That's not a NWA belt.

[Xero]

Apparently it had "NWA" on it. I would imagine it'll be the same belt without the "NWA" letters/name.

[Xero]

I've heard the world title is similar to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

[James Steele]

Wait, why do they need a new X Division title? That's not a NWA belt.

Technically no, but the original belt does have NWA-TNA on it.

[James Steele]

Also, the X-Title looks stupid. I can't take a belt seriously that has a big red X on it.

[James Steele]

http://www.psdprotocol.com/1.5/thumbs_full/w4lgfx.3105tna.x-division.title-01_DaZZ.png

[KayfabeMan]

They should put the WWE logo behind the big red X on their title.

That'll teach WWE.

[UmbrellaCorporation]

ROFL

[Jeritron]

This is probably why they put the strap on Angle pretty abruptly

[Theo Dious]

Meh, they probably just wanted to be able to call Angle a "former NWA champion" while they still could.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Well, I can't make Val Venis win the championship, or main event WrestleMania...

Oh, wait a minute, yes I can.

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g122/sandman3g/Wrestling/valchamp.jpg

See...doesn't it just look right? :love:

[Mr. Nerfect]

Actually, pretty sure his EXACT vision is...

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g122/sandman3g/Wrestling/stableofchampionslol.jpg

Holy shit! That would be a nigh perfect world.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Only London wouldn't look dead.

[dude extreme]

Does anyone have the new photos?

[Theo Dious]

I've heard the world title is similar to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

So basically, yet ANOTHER way in which they're not even hiding how bad they want to be WCW.

[CSL]

<font color=white>They're gonna be 'unveiled' on TNA today...today.</font>

[Xero]

Here's a video with the title, about 3 minutes in.

<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/YRiXuRIDFzY"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/YRiXuRIDFzY" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

Looks like a mix between the Big Gold Belt and the Winged WWF belt.

[Kane Knight]

They prolly have six sides

THAT IS SO BIZARRE!

[Mr. Aristocrat]

In case you don't want your first glimpse of it being held by Jeremy Borasch.

[XL]

I like it

[Xero]

Looks like chocolate...

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

I like it.

[UmbrellaCorporation]

I like it. Gotta admit I liked the older one a bit better though.

[James Steele]

It looks fucking horrible.

[JT]

WORLD: I don't think it looks too bad...could be nicer.
<img src="http://www.sescoops.com/tnabelts/world1.jpg">

TAG TEAM: Looks a bit like the old ECW, so kind of filly to the Dudley Boyz
<img src="http://www.sescoops.com/tnabelts/tag2.jpg">

X DIVISION: Not bad either.
<img src="http://www.sescoops.com/tnabelts/x.jpg">

[Xero]

The best of the three is definitely the tag titles.

In fact, if they made it a bit bigger I think that would have been better than what they chose for the world title. It's not a BAD looking title, but I'm not crazy about it being completely void of any color besides gold.

[James Steele]

Those shots make them look better.

[JT]

The question now are the titles starting from new with 3D and Angle as the first champions, or will that start from the people who held the NWA Championships when TNA Started (Shamrock and whoever the Tag Champs were).

[CSL]

<font color=white>Gotta say, sweet belts right there.</font>

[Mercury Bullet]

Helluva lot better than I expected.

[Jordan]

Niccccce

[Dorkchop]

They all look pretty good! The heavyweight looks pretty nice!

[Mr. Nerfect]

The World Heavyweight Title looks fucking sweet. I love it. A World Title doesn't need to look colourful. I prefer the mostly gold look for a World Title. To be perfectly honest, though, I do love the IWGP World Heavyweight Title. That is a fucking sexy belt.

My first reaction when I saw the Tag Team Titles was "Ew." Just looked very plain and blocky. They're growing on me, though. I think it was mainly the font saying "World Tag Team Wrestling Champion." They are nice belts, though.

The X-Division Title is hot. I love the way they made it look like it could be a World Title, however the colour scheme (silver and red) is what stops it from potentially overshadowing the TNA World Title.

I am also curious about the histories. The X-Division Championship should keep its history. I think it would be wise to start the World and Tag Team Titles from scratch, though. Wikipedia (and I know that's not the most reliable site) claims Christian Cage and Kurt Angle to be the only guys to be TNA World Heavyweight Champion. I guess that makes Cage a three-time World Champion, and Kurt Angle a seven-time Champ. They also recognise Team 3D as the first-ever TNA World Tag Team Champions. That takes their number of World Tag Title reigns up to 20.

[Theo Dious]

World: Very nice, but could have gone with a bit more distinction in the details.

Tag: Best of the three, reminds me a bit of the classic IC style, crossed with the NWA World belt.

X: Best improvement for sure; the X is incorporated much better, it looks more like a respectible belt now, and doesn't scream "spot monkey champion of the world!"

[Theo Dious]

<img src="http://www.sescoops.com/tnabelts/x.jpg">

What is he holding, a parking ticket? :?:

[Disturbed316]

World is not very nice, Tag is good, X division is ok.

[The Fugitive]

Yeah, I'm digging the Tag Team titles. World is okay looking. X Division... meh.

[KingofOldSchool]

The World title looks like ass, the X title doesn't look too bad, and the tag titles look like a hybrid of the mid 80's WWF title, the old school IC title, and WWF Tag titles.

[Mr. JL]

I really love the way all three of their new titles look like.:y:

[El Fangel]

World is decent, Tag looks blocky as said before, x = :drool:

[KayfabeMan]

Nice belts. :y:

TNA did a good job on that at least.

[KayfabeMan]

X Division is somewhat blah to me, but like I said, the other ones are really nice. TNA Replica Belts, coming soon.

[Lara Emily]

None of them look distinct, they all look pretty generic. Blah to them all.

Well except the X divsion title, it has a distinct look it's just too bad it's ugly as hell.

[Lara Emily]

I've heard the world title is similar to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.


It`s the big gold belt only not big.

:n:

[El Fangel]

It`s the big gold belt only not big.

[Rammsteinmad]

I like. :yes:

[James Steele]

I found even better pics of the new belts:

[James Steele]

If it wasn't for the fact I think "X-Division" is a stupid name, I'd like that belt a hell of a lot more than the World title. (Seriously, add more gold and replace the big red X and shit with "WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT WRESTLING" and make the belt a bit bigger and you have a pretty good World title.) The World title doesn't look like complete shit, but the eagle's wings are a bit much. (Also, the font they used looks fucking cheesy.) The Tag Title looks the best,IMO.

[Mr. JL]

Fuck, I love the way the TNA World Heavyweight Championship belt looks

[James Steele]

It does have somewhat of an old-school look to it though.

[Theo Dious]

It does have somewhat of an old-school look to it though.

That's not a bad thing... that's a good thing. :y:

[blake639raw]

Damn, the world title looks nice.

[Disturbed316]

It just reminds me of one of the PPV poster logos.

Sabin: So THIS is how they're paying for this shit!?!

[Bull Horn Mike]

The new TNA title looks like the old WCW US belt. That was a great title.

http://www.100megsfree4.com/wiawrestling/graphics/WCWUSBLT.jpg

The TNA strap is awesome ftr.

[BigDaddyCool]

Meh, they are ok, not great. If they didn't have TNA on them, they would look better.

[chrisat928]

That picture makes the World Title look ok, but seeing it on TV, it looks horrible.
Oh, and Kurt calling it the most prestigious title in all of pro-wrestling made it lose all credibility.

[James Steele]

The tag title looks the best, IMO.

[Lara Emily]

The TNA logo absolutely kills the World belt, though even then it's a really busy centre plate.

I still say they look like shit

[Mr. Nerfect]

I think anyone hating on these belts is just refusing to admit that TNA did something good for a change. They are damn nice belts. Way better than any the WWE has come up with recently.

[diothoir]

Tag and X division belts are good, definite improvement, not as sure about the world belt, but it's not bad.

[Theo Dious]

Oh, and Kurt calling it the most prestigious title in all of pro-wrestling made it lose all credibility.

Anything Kurt says anymore makes what he's talking about lose all credibility. If he were to become Pope, Christianity would vanish in three days. And not resurrect.

[Theo Dious]

Sabin: So THIS is how they're paying for this shit!?!

"I'm the X-division champion, I can park wherever the hell I want!"

[Lara Emily]

I think anyone hating on these belts is just refusing to admit that TNA did something good for a change. They are damn nice belts. Way better than any the WWE has come up with recently.

Or ya know they have different tastes than you.

[Erebus]

Does the world title with the eagle on it and all not kinda remind people of the WWF title?

Or is it just me?
