It would be a nice gesture to the new Champion, and it would further the storyline with Punk (because the guy who loses the title always gets a rematch).

This sounds good though. Whether it's the Winged Eagle belt or a totally new design, it would be a good way to usher out a belt everyone hates and put over the new champ as "worthy." I really feel like a Punk/Ziggler feud culminating in a real Ziggler title reign would be a great time for this; not only for the reasons that have been covered, but it would fit into Ziggler's "show off" image to have him be like "I'm such an awesome champion I deserve a new belt." You can build the Flair thing into it too; have him demand that Vickie stay away from ringside during the match, have her interfere anyway and nearly cost him the match. Then during his belt presentation have him fire Vickie in the ring and bring out the guy who's been giving him GOOD advice behind the scenes.
