Wrestling belts, designs and reigns.

Some people really like this version of the eagle belt. I personally didn’t. I just always found it to be really flat compared to the previous design, along with the belt that replaced the previous IC belt.

I really like that version but the previous WWF Championship reigns supreme like the classic WWF Intercontinental Championship over the replacement. Thank God a tweaked version returned via Cody Rhodes at Hell in a Cell 2011. That was the highlight of the show.

But do you remember the first retro IC belt that Cody had, that looked really cheap, tiny, and a weirdly shaped?

Which might’ve looked like a knockoff for copyright reasons.

Here’s the belt we have today.*

If I recall the story,  when they switched off the oval IC, they went with someone that made a real bad knockoff of the 80/90 belt.  Parks got pissy and just made the real one with the updated logo and it ended up getting WWE and Parks doing business again before Reggie retired.

If I remember correctly, the original incorrect version of the White IC that Cody brought back was made by Wildcat Belts.

The IWGP Heavyweight Championship is the best looking belt in wrestling today, felt that way for some time.

The IWGP Intercontinental Championship also looks great. NJPW hosts the best world title and secondary title designs in wrestling.
