Championship Prestige
 
What would you say is the order of Championship Prestige overall? I'm talking all (or most) titles from the big promotions.

So, we'd have (This is off the top of my head):

WWE World
WCW World
NWA World
TNA World
ECW World
WWE Intercontinental
WWE European
WCW/WWE United States
ECW TV
WWE Hardcore
WWE Tag
WCW Tag
ECW Tag
NWA Tag
TNA Tag
WCW/WWE Cruiserweight
WWF Light Heavyweight


I'm sure I missed quite a few (I did omit other promotions purposely, though). Also, for our purposes, some titles have been merged (WCW/WWE Cruiser, etc.)...

Let's actually make this a bit easier (unless you WANT to list all of them) and list your top five/ten.

I refuse to partake in this unless the Million Dollar Belt is added.

KYR 01-23-2008 11:58 PM

Gee...making it tough by throwing in the tag titles as well.

I like a challenge though.

The World Championships:

NWA World Heavyweight Championship
WWE Championship
World Heavyweight Championship
WCW Championship
TNA World Heavyweight Championship
AWA World Heavyweight Championship
ECW Championship
ROH World Championship

The secondary championships:

WWE/WCW United States Championship
WWE Intercontinental Championship
FIP World Heavyweight Championship
ECW Television Championship
ROH Pure Championship

The tag team championships:

World Tag Team Championship
NWA World Tag Team Championship
WWE Tag Team Championship
WCW Tag Team Championship
ROH World Tag Team Championship
ECW Tag Team Championship
TNA World Tag Team Championship

The tertiary championships:

WCW Television Championship
WWE European Championship


The ladies' championships:

TNA Knockout Championship
WWE Women's Championship
NWA Women's Championship
WCW Women's Championship

The weight class championships:

WWE/WCW Cruiserweight Championship
NWA Junior Heavyweight Championship
WWE Light Heavyweight Championship

The hardcore championships:

WWE Hardcore Championship
WCW Hardcore Championship

And I roughly think that is the class order, too. Being a hardcore champion, no matter where it was, does not equate to holding any of the tertiary championships, etc.

EDIT:

Million Dollar Belt
NWA World Heavyweight Championship
WWE Championship
World Heavyweight Championship
WCW Championship

Noid's second list seems about right.

The Lone Wolf 01-24-2008 05:27 PM

Noid seems to have it pretty much accurate

Outsider 01-25-2008 07:13 AM

I would agree with Noid and put the US title over the IC title. The US Champion was frequently refered to as automatically the number one contender, which gave it more of a reason for existance rather than just being a generic belt type thing.

And he missed off the WCW Cruiserweight Tag Titles :shifty:

Mr. JL 01-25-2008 07:56 AM

My fav 5 are:


WWE World
NWA World
WWE Intercontinental
ECW TV
WCW Cruiserweight

The Ravishing One 01-25-2008 07:58 AM

Didn't WCW have 6 man tag belts back in the day??

Mr. JL 01-25-2008 08:07 AM

^^

yeah, i believe so

Sting Fan 01-25-2008 09:31 AM

For a very short amount of time in the early days they had them I think.

And near the end they definatly did, I remember the Filthy animals having something to do with it I think.

Also WCW T.V. and U.S Belts ftw, there was some amazing feuds and matches over those belts.

Goulet 01-25-2008 11:20 AM

Saskatchewan Hardcore International Championship
100 Kilos-and-Under Championship
Canadian Championship
Million Dollar Championship
World Gravy Wrestling Championship

FourFifty 01-25-2008 03:01 PM

Xero's and Noid's are the only posts that I'll take seriously. How can all of you forget the awesomeness that was the European Championship? Can anyone remember the epic match between HBK and HHH for that title? It damn near tore DeGenration X in half! It was the greatest match ever!

I think you're thinking of the WCW Cruiserweight Tag Team titles at the end of WCW's run and the Filthy Animals.

DarKCentaur 01-26-2008 02:47 PM

I think the Sizzleweight Title should be up there.

St. Jimmy 01-26-2008 02:50 PM

They said Big Promotions, so no ROH.

I know it doesn't count in this list.

But the ROH world title is the most important title in the world to me, since Joe had his run.

Gabe books that title as it should be booked, it's not used as a prop to excel storylines, whoever holds it, is treated like a champion.
