You watch. This is going to end up being the most logically booked title WWE has ever had.

Then John Cena will start dating the champion and add a spinner to it.

You guys act like the WWE markets toward you guys.
The belt is fine. When I saw it, I actually thought it looked cool. Sexist as it may sound, it's a WOMEN'S BELT, and it's OK to be flashy and girly and gaudy. It's a goddamn Diva Championship, for crying out loud. Let it go and complain about the non-spinning spinner belt. |

I understand where the WWE is coming from with this. A traditional belt would clash with te Women's Championship, and just blend right in. They needed to do something different with it, to make the belt appear like it is worth holding, and not just a Women's Championship-lite.
Making the belt silver was of course a possibility, but with that, you have it being looked at as "second rate," as silver is generally second to gold in rankings. Pink was probably chosen because it's not a traditional belt colour, and can help the title stand-out, as well as making it seem different, without necessarily making it look worse than the Women's Championship (a lot of you don't like it, but at least the belts are not interchangeable). It's a separate beast, so at least there won't be any confusion. I'm sure the idea of a coloured strap went through their minds, too, but that would simply have mimicked the TNA Knockout Championship. If I were to guess, I think the minds behind it would have thought "White strap? Nah, we can't do that. Pink strap? Hmm, it'd look weird, but why not a modern-age pink title? Hey, that's pretty different!" |

Also, Candice Michelle should never be Women's Champion again. At least, not until she improves a whole lot more than what she already has.

Noid has a good point. At least you can't confuse the Women's Title with the Divas Title (I guess the official name is plural). They're distinctively different belts, and with different looks come different connotations. The WC is more toned-down, although it still has that crazy wave/sawtooth pattern on it, so it connotates more of a wrestling background. The DC is more gaudy and Hello-Kittyish and as such brings with it an image of girls slapping each other around for a shot to hold the cute title.

Didn't the old women's title have a pink strap? I mean when Alundra Blaze and Bull Nakano were fighting for it in the early 90's?
Also, since this is a belt thread, has anyone heard the rumour and is there any truth that the World title be have been redesigned so part of it will spin in the near future? (source: tha O show) Back on topic: that belt isn't too bad. I wouldn't want it, but then, I'm not a diva. |

Just noticing - the nameplate is TINY compared to other nameplates, as though there's only room for the first name. Doesn't bode well for anyone who uses two names, such as Michelle McCool.

All Divas will eventually be known by two names, as they always are.
Maria There's something scary about a Diva having a surname, I suppose. |

I thought someone put a belt strap on one of Rey Misterio's masks...
