Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2006 Women's title looks the worst. Also, what's with the love about the Big Gold Belt? I agree that it's a good looking belt, but I don't get the love for it everybody else does. I much prefer the WWE Title over the World Heavyweight Title (Big Goldie).

Not true. Austin lost that belt by being pinned by both Taker and Kane at the same time. The next night on Raw they brought out the red carpet for the ring and Vince was going to award the belt to one of them. They had the old WWF winged eagle belt in display case. This was segment that Austin drove the Zambone out to the ring. They didn't bring back the Attitude era belt until Rock won it at Survivor Series 98. Why do I remember this? Because I was marking out thinking that they realized how ugly the new WWF title was, came to their senses and decided to go back to the real WWF title. Another thing I hated about the beginning of the Attitude era was that all the belts were colored. The WWF title was blue (late made balck with a blue back when Rock won it), the IC was purple, the Euro was green, and the back of the Tag belts were red. Come to think of it WWE has not come out with a good looking title in years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Come to think of it WWE has not come out with a good looking title in years. I loved the idea of multi-colored belts. It helped distinguish them from the standard "black leather belt with gold plates" deal. I seem to remember there also being a red-strapped European belt as well. When exactly did all the titles go back to the plain black straps? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bigm350 Report post Posted January 17, 2006 I always thought the different colored straps for the old school IC belt, held by HBK and the Warrior looked cool. Even the multicolored straps for the Winged Eagle when the Warrior held it, looked cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2006 I always thought the different colored straps for the old school IC belt, held by HBK and the Warrior looked cool. Even the multicolored straps for the Winged Eagle when the Warrior held it, looked cool. I had a similar thing with a character in an E-Fed. The guy is a super-patriot...like early-days Kurt Angle...and so, when he won a title, he'd change the strap so, when the belt is worn properly, the strap would have one half of it blue with white stars, and the other half of it red and white alternating stripes. Oh, and for the topic? Well, don't know about the UGLIEST, but the best IMO was this one: The block logo, IMO, will always be more professional looking than the scratch logo. Plus, it still has the shape of the Attitude belt that everyone loves. The only thing that I might change is the strap color from blue to black. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Perfxion 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2006 Big Gold belt love is from the fact that everyone had small titles in 87 until that Giant came out right around the time of the Great American Bash tour. Best looking title of all time = WWF Title from WM4 to WM14 Worst looking title of all time = WWE IC title from night after WM14 to what Ric Flair is carrying.

haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted January 18, 2006 This is non-WWE, but Im going to have to say this is one of the most uniquely designed center plates for a belt I have ever seen. I'll have to do some looking for the "Tower" belt. I've mentioned it a few other times on this board, but the center plate was a feudal-era japanese tower that looked to be a good foot and a half, maybe 2-foot tall. Would've been pretty impractical to wear over a shoulder, but would've been....different....around someone's waist. Oh and before I forget, much love for Champagne Chris Kanyon's "Hollywood Heavyweight Championship". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bigm350 Report post Posted January 18, 2006 Again off topic, but I'd say the best current belt out there is the new IWGP belt, that Brock is sporting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless you meant that you liked it, which I still stand by as being a hideous belt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can appreciate the history of the old NWA Domed Globe belt. That, in itself, makes it one of my favorite belts, but I'll be honest, its physical appearance looks like a license plate.

Scroby 0 Report post Posted January 18, 2006 The two for me is the current WWE U.S. Title. It's one the worst designs for a title I have ever seen. It doesn't even look like an actual championship belt, it looks like a leater belt with a huge belt buckle on it. The other is Cena's spinner title. It looks like a fucking toy.
