haVoc 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2003 I saw Bret Hart do it once. When he returned to enter the ring in over time at WM12. He threw the belt on the ground, jumped in the ring and did the job for Shawn. Bret wasn't a happy camper that night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EdwardKnoxII 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2003 QUOTE (Fook @ Dec 9 2003, 02:16 PM) I always hated when Austin or Rock would just drag it behind them like it was a piece of trash. It was even worse when they would chuck it down to the ground before getting in the ring. You never saw Flair or Bret doing that. Austin I can understand it for. It's part of his character. Rock I have no idea why he did that though. I really hated it when Rock would be on the turnbuckle to hold up the belt and it would be backwards. In other words instead of him showing off the gold he would be showing off that leather strap behind it. That always pissed me off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also...what about when a wrestler wears a title belt upside-down on his waist? It's rare, but it's happend. Regal at WMX8, for example, with the IC title.

Guest Fook Report post Posted December 9, 2003 I saw Bret Hart do it once. When he returned to enter the ring in over time at WM12. He threw the belt on the ground, jumped in the ring and did the job for Shawn. Bret wasn't a happy camper that night. That was probably to show how pissed he was that the match had to continue. As for the other ways, I fucking hate the around the neck way of holding the belt. It only makes the wrestler look like a putz, not a champ. I haven't really seen the around the arm other than with Big Show and the hardcore title, and I don't think anyone really cared about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EdwardKnoxII 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2003 I liked the way Rick Steiner wore the tag belt during his tag team days. He would either wear it backwards or sometimes upside down. Which totally fit with his character. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ligerbomb03 Report post Posted December 9, 2003 How about when wrestlers have too many belts to wear on their body? Okay, I will stop posting pictures now. Sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2003 The two belts on his right, our left, both look like the NWA World Title! And the hidden one on his left, our right, looks kinda like the pre-Attitude IC title... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I saw that happen in a match from Japan, actually, all the belts were carried to the ring not by the wrestler, but by young women Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2003 Those are the same belts Ultimo Dragon carried around in WCW Ah, then one of them...I think the top middle one...is the old WWF Light Heavyweight Championship. THe one that they just kept in Mexico and Japan, never mentioned on TV, Benoit won as Pegasus Kid, and was abolished for the more recent one where Taka won it first.

notJames 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2003 I loathe how Buh Buh Ray heaves his title belt into the ring when he makes his entrance. It's a sacrilege to the great teams who have worn that belt with honour. Same goes for all the other monkeys who don't wear the belt around the waists like they're supposed to. They're belts! Duh! So you'd boo Yokozuna then since he didn't wear the belt around his waist? Of course. He was a heel! Seriously, if you're too big to wear the belt, they should tie the ends together with shoelaces or something. Or have an XXXL belt handy just in case big fatties like Vader or Rikishi or Stephanie win the championship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
