Dandy 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2008 Decent idea in theory, but what would stop someone else from declaring themselves "Nature Boy?" I think it would just be better to have Flair managing Reid in a few years and if the "Nature Boy" moniker goes to anyone, it's passed on to Reid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exslade ZX 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2008 I'm not so interested in the SD! Womens championship anymore... Finally, something that looks worse than the Spinner belt. The V looks a like a cervix. Fitting for the Divas championship I suppose. The belts ugly, but it's something new/interesting at least. And I think it's something over time, I won't hate. Except when someone who isn't a girly girl has it. Imagine Beth Phoenix carrying that. But I can see McCool with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dandy 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2008 The V makes the antennae of the butterfly design. I showed my girlfriend and she said it was a beautiful belt. Perhaps they want to get a better women demographic watching their shows? I don't see anything wrong with the belt myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

garfieldsnose 0 Report post Posted July 5, 2008 I don't think they were telling themselves "I hope all the males that watch like this belt". It is perfect for a women's design, and it's something that seems state of the art. Totally different from that plain Women's title on RAW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Broward83 0 Report post Posted July 6, 2008 my girlfriend saw the belt just now and said it looks like something that would come as an accessory to some sort of Bratz doll or some other really horrible modern "doll"... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exslade ZX 0 Report post Posted July 6, 2008 my girlfriend saw the belt just now and said it looks like something that would come as an accessory to some sort of Bratz doll or some other really horrible modern "doll"... She's right. Makes me think of the movie "The Game Plan" where the girl 'bedazzled' The Rock's football. Except in this case it's a championship belt. And I don't know why, as it does give it a unique feel, but I don't like when a championship belt has no gold. It defeats the whole 'Going for the Gold' sentiment. Especially in this regard where they've been competing in 'Golden Dream' matches. Sure I'm taking it too literally, but it's just a personal preference.
