Actually the "classic winged eagle belt" was first used at WM IV when Macho Man won the Tournament.

I hate the spinner belt, but it can't be as bad a Jeff Hardy's purple piece of shit in TNA.

no it wasn't, it debuted during the 2nd Hogan/Andre match on SNME. In Hogan's promo before the match he has the old belt, when he makes his entrance, he's wearing the new one. I remember thinking it was some kind of "continuity error" when I saw it for the first time but I assume they'd have mentioned it at some point in the build up or whatever.

Phoenix. Not eagle.

Was this disputing what somebody else said? Or just a standard DLVH post?

Yep! It's a phoenix alright.

What is this? Are you trying to be sarcastic?

No :shifty:

It's a phoenix, alright.

Actually, it was on The Main Event, which aired on a Friday night only five times between 1988 and 1991, and it was a half-hour shorter than SNME.

I was complaining when that belt was revealed

The only time the spinner belt fit anybody else other than Cena was RVD... cause it spins.

Other than that... it doesn't fit anybody and looks very out of place when anybody holds it.

Bring back the Undisputed title. It's a nice lookin belt.

The spinner belt fit Edge's character.

I think it actually fits ADR pretty well. It's a huge chunk of gold. It's "loud". Fits perfectly for a guy that likes to flaunt his wealth.

...The question read: Is it time to re-design the WWE Championship?

And the answer is YES.

Thank you.
