END THE SPINNER!
 

If Cena's not gonna hold the title, which is all fine and dandy by me - yes I really just used the phrase "fine and dandy" - then they shouldn't be using a spinner for the champion. The only other person it worked for was Edge, but that was because he customized it Rated R style.

Even Austin's smoking skull belt didn't last this long.... jeez.

Sheamus walking around with a spinner looks stupid.
Orton walking around with a spinner looks stupid.
HHH walking around with a spinner looks stupid.

You get the idea.

You know it does not spin anymore, right?

It doesn't stay centered, that's for damn sure.

It still looks fucking stupid...

It looks stupid, and no matter who has that Belt, it always makes u think of Cena...

...which is probably what the WWE wants anyway.

WORKS JUST FINE.

You know what, I probably wouldn't mind Cena all that much if I weren't reminded of him every second.

It's like, even when he's not the Champion, he is.

Agreed. Remember when they gave the belts different leather backings. Stone Cold had the WWE belt with blue leather and Rock had the IC title with purple leather.

I could live with something like that.... but not a diamond encrusted belt.

...problem is that kids love the spinner belt, so...WWE being kid-friendly...I think it'll be a while before we see a change.

The spinner belt has had a longer run than the Attitude belt.

This is so true, it's depressing.

I wonder if WWE keeps it around because kids continue to purchase it?

But, they do need to change it that's for sure.

What doesn't belong?

The one in the middle. I see an "F", get the "F" OUT!

1 could make a case for any of the three.

I wonder what people think of John Cena?

Sorry, I thought we were asking things that everyone already knew.

If they're gonna keep the spinner belt, they should have custom center plates for the variuos champs. It;'d be allow kids to spend even more cash.

Though the Triple H "Swastika Plate" might be too controversial.

Just wait until they finish the real version of this one:

But yeah, this topic has been done to death. Just about everyone here hates it but it sells.

Personally, I wouldn't have AS MUCH of a problem with it if EVERY champion got a custom center plate. Either way it's an ugly piece of shit that belongs in some backyard hip hop promotion and not the largest company in the world.

If they're so hell-bent on keeping it they may as well make similar style belts for all the titles. If this one sells, surely other, similar ones would. They could start by bringing back Cena's US title.

Which, to be entirely honest, isn't as bad as the WWE Championship. It's still ridiculous, but it's better.

That US Title looks like a belt Elvis Presley would've worn in the 60's.

The spinner belt doesn't annoy me as much as most. The only thing that really annoys me is that it says "Champ" instead of champion or championship.

Hmm...makes u think that in THAT ASPECT, WCW kinda dropped the ball, in that they didn't make a NWO Heavyweight Championship, they just stuck with spray painting the WCW Belt, and that was it.

It served its purpose and looked pretty awesome.

WWE put out an nWo replica a few years back. The WCW title with "nWo" painted on it.

I guess in retrospect it was better, like u said, served its purpose...the whole spray painting really gave it an "invasion" look...

Yes, it does. Though that's not really the point at all. The point is that it's a flashy disgrace to the WWE Championship.

I would love if they went back to the winged eagle, but it would sort of feel wrong if Cena held that title. Cena might look good with the WWF Attitude Era title, but I'd rather him not be the champion.

The non-spinner looks good on Sheamus though, and it looked good on Orton's shoulder.

I wouldn't mind if Cena had the spinner when he was champion. That's what I figured they were going to do.

i don't really mind the spinner. i agree the "champ" thing is wrong but other than that it's fine with me.

and also i don't think that it's kept around solely for sales purposes because even if they replaced it with a diff one kids would still buy spinner belts or would but whatever current belt is being sported by the whomever is holding it

I do wish that they would change the belt. Especially now that it doesn't even seem to fit Cena's character. I've been hoping that Nexus would actually destroy the belt or something, giving cause for a new one.

Actually, if the logo is on its way out, maybe the look of the belt will be changing too.

I think Vince has kept it to appeal to the Blacks. Because we all know how black people like diamond encrusted Spinning things.
:nono::roll:

It's been around so long now that if a heel were to destroy or banish it would pretty much turn them face in an instant well that's my theory and I'm stucking to it cuz there's no other reason to keep that POS around.

We need JBL. And an oil barrel. And some explosives.

Why not have Rhyno burn it like he did with that one ECW title we were never going to see on Impact when WWECW was getting started. Because you know Rhyno was with the company since day one and all and he carried the whole company the way he made it sound.

I think one part of it not looking so hot is because it's completely flat, to allow for the centerpiece to properly spin.
All other belts have a slight curve to the plate, for being worn around the waist.

Obviously that's not the only reason, but it's a big one. The fact that it doesn't actually spin anymore and the WWE logo stays still pleases me.

Im surprised they haven't changed the color of the belt strap to white for Sheamus, or would that look too TNA'ish?

Wait until Jeff Hardy wins the TNA belt and they make it glow under his blacklight entrance like his face paint does.
