New Title Belt
 
New Belt..... I'm leaning towards nay.....not sure yet.

Tazz Dan 02-19-2013 12:11 AM

Undecided. I hated it when I saw pictures months ago, but it grew on me a bit when Rock was holding it. I'll need to wait and see how it looks with someone wearing around their waist before I cast final judgement.

Also, spoiler.

Mike the Metal Ed 02-19-2013 12:12 AM

Right now, I think it's a horrible design, but not necessarily worse than the old one. I'll wait to see if it grows on me

dronepool 02-19-2013 12:14 AM

It's better because it's something new. As long as the bulls are customizable, it's not bad.

Heisenberg 02-19-2013 12:14 AM

Not really on the subject, but I was a big supporter of the Rated R WWE Championship.

Cool King 02-19-2013 12:19 AM

I like it.

It looks more prestigious than the previous design, while also appearing stylish for the current times.

I'm sure The Brahma Bull side plates will change when The Rock is no longer champion and the current design will be filed under as The Rock's "custom design". The side plates will probably be replaced with plates with the WWE logo on them.

slik 02-19-2013 12:21 AM

I think it's an improvement over the spinner.

I like the idea of the side plates being interchangeable.

Is it perfect, no. But it sure isn't as bad as the tag belts.

Poit 02-19-2013 12:28 AM

I think it's a bit worse than the spinner. This new belt just looks like a giant logo.

Cool King 02-19-2013 12:33 AM

I'll just leave this here so people can have a good look at it.

Better than the spinner one, so its yay.

Skippord 02-19-2013 12:38 AM

I'll like it once the bulls are gone probably

h8 custom titles except the Rated R Championship

Vastardikai 02-19-2013 12:46 AM

It doesn't say "Champ," so I'm cool with it.

You didn't like the Smokin' Skull Championship? I thought it was cool.

Edge's championship was supposed to be something different than that, but it was a last second change to make it a spinning R.

Juan 02-19-2013 01:31 AM

They should have worked in an eagle on the main plate somewhere since all of the past incarnations have had one on there, i think

Droford 02-19-2013 01:35 AM

I think WWE gave Aaron Rodgers a WWE Championship he didn't buy it.

Tom Guycott 02-19-2013 01:42 AM

I personally dislike the lack of a nameplate, but the flipside is that eliminates the cries of picky bitches who whine about the name not being changed IMMEDIATELY whenever X wins the title then gets pictures taken.

Krimzon7 02-19-2013 01:47 AM

it does look like a Superbowl/Championship Ring. I think that's why I like it. Dont like the idea of static side plates after the Rock's reign.

Krimzon7 02-19-2013 01:48 AM

The US Title, the IC title and the WHC Belts are all decent right now. This makes the WWE Title decent. Only if we could fix the damned tag team titles and that Divas shit

Droford 02-19-2013 01:50 AM

I wonder if they'll mess with the whc...

Krimzon7 02-19-2013 01:53 AM

HIGHLY HIGHLY DOUBTFUL...

Krimzon7 02-19-2013 01:53 AM

So...we'll probably see it revamped tomorrow night

James Steele 02-19-2013 02:33 AM

Yeah, it seems they wanted to make it look like a championship ring kind of but it still doesn't look like something people will look back on in 20 years and go "Wow, that looks awesome." The Winged Eagle, Attitude Era, and Undisputed designs are timeless. I really don't like that center plate shape though. The US Championship has that same style, and it just looks weird. Rounded corners looks better.

James Steele 02-19-2013 02:33 AM

Poor Rock had to sell the shit out of that belt. I imagine they might change it since it got shat on and probably will going forward.

Tazz Dan 02-19-2013 02:34 AM

Like the tag titles?

Tazz Dan 02-19-2013 02:35 AM

On a more serious note, I never liked the undisputed belt that much.

The belts would look better if they weren't copper and had giant spartan helmets on them. Here are some examples of excellent rounded/round edged championship belts:

James Steele 02-19-2013 02:58 AM

Considering he was the first guy to hold it, it angers me that that is the only good picture I could find of HHH with the Undisputed design.

Also, here is picture I didn't know existed:

You clearly can't see where he edited his post. Apart from the fact it's clear as day of course. Maybe, just maybe, he added that picture in..... Food for thought there buddy.

James Steele 02-19-2013 03:01 AM

Yeah, I've been updating that post for awhile now. I never want to be accused of spamming Triple H propaganda.

SlickyTrickyDamon 02-19-2013 03:13 AM

Thought he only edited in the IC title at the time.

Whatever the Undisputed title is awesome. It's the belt that Eddie Guerrero won and JBL was awesome with for a year.

Tom Guycott 02-19-2013 03:17 AM

All this hate over the tag team belts (which I don't believe look as bad as everyone says) would be negated if somone like TPWW girl-of-the-moment Katlyn did this to them:


Also, if they make a legit division and keep them relevant instead of spamming teams to do jack shit then disbanding all of them in a never ending cycle would help out as well.

I can see how the stark COPPER look is a bit offputting, but I think the spartan helmet design looks cool.

James Steele 02-19-2013 03:19 AM

http://www.wwe.com/f/styles/photo_la...8/15448774.jpg

That will never look good. It looks like something you'd win for eating the most gyros in 30 minutes.

SlickyTrickyDamon 02-19-2013 03:22 AM

It's fitting that the tag team titles are bronze since it's a 3rd place prize for not being over enough to be on your own to have a World or secondary title.

Juan 02-19-2013 03:24 AM

Aren't they copper?

James Steele 02-19-2013 03:36 AM

They are made of recycled decommissioned pennies.

Black Widow 02-19-2013 04:59 AM

As long as the "spinner" title is finally gone I'm happy. It only made sense when cena had the belt.



James Steele 02-19-2013 05:10 AM

It still looked fucking stupid to anyone who isn't borderline retarded and is obsessed with shiny things that spin.

So, you think Cena brings the spinner belt back after he beats the Rock?

Tazz Dan 02-19-2013 05:29 AM

He/She didn't say that. He/She said it only made sense when Cena had it, not that the belt needs to come back if Cena's champion.

Big Vic 02-19-2013 09:47 AM

"AJ Lee's dog" is right.


I wish there was more to the belt than just a giant logo.

The side logo should definitely be the main logo.


Something about the oversized WWE logo just doesn't do it for me. We know it is WWE's Championship

Savio 02-19-2013 10:16 AM

If they made the W smaller and put earth behind it it could be cool.

It's funny you should say that because when the belt was unveiled, it did look a bit familiar to me but I didn't know where I had seen it before.

Then today I remembered that I had seen something like it before in a dream I had a few years ago. I remember that I mentioned it here and it took me a while to find the post but I eventually did. It was from 2010 and I said this....

It was a similar shape to the previous WWE Championship but the middle was the image from the achievement from SvR11 when you win a World Championship with a Created Wrestler. The WWE Logo was raised a little bit from the front plate of the belt and the gold was the same shade of gold that's on the achievement image.

Behind the WWE Logo and what I'm guessing is an explosion behind the logo was a wireframe sphere, like what is on the previous WWE Championship, so I'm assuming it was the world but it was only visible around the edge of the front plate as the explosion covered the majority of the front plate, with the raised WWE Logo in the centre.

http://slamzilla.ca/wp-content/uploa...9/10/10133.jpghttp://img69.imageshack.us/img69/944...xoeglltwtv.jpg

No sign of any eagles though, but I honestly thought the belt looked pretty cool.

It turns out that my dream was pretty close to what we have now, only with a few things out of place, which is both pretty cool and weird at the same time.

It sucks that one of the images doesn't work now though, but you saying that the side plates design should be the centre design is what was in my dream but I do agree with you. The side plates design would look better as the centre plate design. I still like the design the way it is though.

Triple Naitch 02-19-2013 11:10 AM

I like it. Glad they got rid of CHAMP and put it back to Champion.

Josh Reddick got his from Triple H.

MoFo 02-19-2013 11:41 AM

Looks like a more blingy US Title.

Do not want.

stultiloquy 02-19-2013 11:51 AM

Yay because anything is better than the awful spinner belt.

Nay because it's still a bit too full of gaudy bling all over the place...and the exposed leather behind the logo bugs me.

That said, I do like the angular 'shield' shaped motif for the central plate, but overall this belt doesn't have an aura of prestige like some of the previous titles did.

Savio 02-19-2013 11:55 AM

Its like a red wine stain or a pizza sauce stain, yeah they are different but I wouldn't want to wear either of them.

Arrogance 02-19-2013 12:17 PM

It's better than the spinner. Though personally I don't like that there's no name-plate...surely they could have had one rather than just slapping "CHAMPION" on it in giant letters, as if people wouldn't fucking know that.

Every time this comes up it becomes apparent that the only way to really make the titles mean anything is to unify them. Blah blah, yeah I know.

Haze 02-19-2013 12:29 PM

Yay over it's immediate predecessor, but it still very much resembles a toy rather than the WWF/WWE titles of the past.

drave 02-19-2013 12:56 PM

New belt is worse than the spinner I think. It's just a big ass logo and kinda... empty otherwise.

The Eagle belt is the best design they have had for a while (custom belts notwithstanding). Attitude Era was decent too, but Eagles still beat that out I think.

The more I see The Rock with it, the more I like it.

http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...47695305_n.jpg

I think until we all get used to the new design, the title is going to be one of those things where on it's own, it's not that great to look at, but when it's around someones waist or over their shoulder, then it looks really good.

CSL 02-19-2013 01:17 PM

really quite like it. Looks much better in proper promotional pics and I dare say in person as opposed to screen captures

CSL 02-19-2013 01:18 PM

can't help but think of a blinged up version of the classic NWA title when I see it and that's hardly a bad thing

Xero 02-19-2013 01:46 PM

The black void behind the logo and the general size of the logo ruin it for me. As suggested, if they made the logo smaller and maybe did the eagle/world gimmick behind it it'd look better. But I honestly prefer the spinner's design (when locked) to this. More compact. Honestly the title looks like more of a toy than the locked spinner to me. Like something a child would create out of cardboard for backyard wrestling, only real.

Supreme Olajuwon 02-19-2013 02:48 PM

Too much black but other than that I like it.

Also that pic with the belt over Rock's shoulders is photoshopped right?

Cool King 02-19-2013 03:06 PM

Nope, it's a real photo that was uploaded to The Rock's Facebook account today.

Supreme Olajuwon 02-19-2013 03:10 PM

Unless the Rock has the stickiest shoulders ever, there's no way that heavy ass belt could hang by just a little bit of the strap.

Poit 02-19-2013 03:10 PM

I assumed he was holding the belt between his back and the wall.

Supreme Olajuwon 02-19-2013 03:11 PM

Maybe it could. I don't know. We're getting off topic.

Droford 02-19-2013 03:18 PM

All the fake diamond things should be led lights

Supreme Olajuwon 02-19-2013 03:27 PM

and scented too

they should be scented

Supreme Olajuwon 02-19-2013 03:27 PM

cherry scented for the red

maybe strawberry

Supreme Olajuwon 02-19-2013 03:28 PM

def not licorice scented

gross

Emperor Smeat 02-19-2013 03:29 PM

I like it and seems like the Big Gold belt somewhat influenced the design.

Had Punk not complained a few times about the belt, it would have debuted during his reign.

Tazz Dan 02-19-2013 05:12 PM

I like the black behind the logo, looks much better than the gold background in the photo that leaked last year.

Tazz Dan 02-19-2013 05:14 PM

Then again, it could have just been a template. But still, I thing the final design looks better.

Anybody Thrilla 02-19-2013 05:29 PM

I voted 'nay' not thinking that the side plates would be interchangeable, but now I'd say 'yay'.

Droford 02-19-2013 05:34 PM

The bulls on the side are clearly held on with screws

It'll be interesting how they customize that for different people

Poit 02-19-2013 05:36 PM

I'm thinking that once The Rock loses the title, the side plates will change to the generic stuff that's on the replica belt. If the side plates were going to be customizable, then WWE would totally be selling the custom side plates along with the replica belt. There's no way they'd miss an opportunity to get more money like that.

Emperor Smeat 02-19-2013 05:45 PM

I would bet if they start making them, the new champion would still have the old logos from the past champion for a while. If they make them too early or in batches, it would give away who becomes the next champion(s) since its very likely those would be leaked online.

Savio 02-19-2013 05:47 PM

Will punk get pepsi logos on the side?

Did pictures ever leak of the Nameplates for new champs before they won? I assume it'd be the same deal with the panels.

DaVe 02-20-2013 03:29 PM

doesn't spin, doesn't have a bright toy look, says 'champion'. good enough for me.

XL 02-21-2013 06:25 PM

I've decided I'm not a fan.

Is it better than the Spinner? Absolutely.

XCaliber 02-21-2013 07:21 PM

The main plate could have been more traditional it kinda looks more like a brass ring design but i'll gladly take it over that crap spinner belt any day.

Is it perfect, no. But it sure isn't as bad as the tag belts.

On WWE Shop.com you can see what the belt will look like when The Rock loses it. The two side plates look pretty generic.

dingdongyo 02-27-2013 09:21 PM

meh. it looks bedazzled.

mike adamle 02-28-2013 09:50 PM

I've already forgot what the belt looks like. How many hours of TV does WWE have a week? Even a satellite promo from The Rock shoved into Raw and SmackDown (and maybe even Main Event) wouldn't be a terrible idea.

Droford 02-28-2013 10:09 PM

He's too busy to even bring it via satellite
