It was hard work curving them. Must be the strongest cheap metal ever. But from what I found out, the metal is brass with a gold finish. |

Only one I still need to get is an attitude era WWF title, one with a WWF logo. I'm bidding on one but probably won't win. So if anyone wants to get rid of one, just shoot a message my way lol. |

do you just put them in a case? do you take them to get autographed? do you participate in an indy fed? do you fake wrestle at home?
I bought ecw belt from wal mart for 10 bucks....I am undefeated against my 2 year old....I plan on having a Hogan-like run with the belt until I job to my son.

I display them, take them to WWE events. I don't carry them all by myself though, that would look silly. Basically though I have them simply because I wanted them. I mean I have several 300 dollar Lions jerseys too, so I'm not afraid to spend money on dumb stuff lol.

Yeah it is funny, I guess I should have said I let my friends hold them, we'll each have one. Good conversation starters to be sure. Silly harmless fun.

So I went ahead and curved the Undisputed version 1. Came out pretty well.   Sadly Figures Inc. sent the wrong nameplate. I asked for an Undertaker nameplate and they sent a blank one, but they are sending me the correct one. And maybe I should take the "Property of WWE" plate off and add this one...  I'm such a dork...but an incredibly handsome one! |

I guess the curve is to match the stomach of the man wearing it, but who wears those belts like that anymore? It's more like an armband these days.
Congrats on the good job, by the way. They look cool.

They look cool. That's true, they don't get worn much, especially the spinner. The thing is though when you first get one of these the main plate is so flat that it looks unrealistic. So I just want them to look as authentic as possible. And thanks for the compliment, it was hard work lol. |

I wish they'd bring back the classic IC and winged eagle world title belts.

Bret Hart was pretty much the first guy (that I remember) to constantly wear it over his shoulder. It looks cool for him, but I kinda side with the "Brain" on wearing the title around the waist. It's a belt for crying out loud.

I have the Attitude Big Eagle belt and the World Heavyweight Championship and I curved both by bending them over my thigh applying even pressure on both sides of the plates.

Sorry to be completely off topic but I've always wondered, what are those little red music note-looking things on the side plates of the Undisputed belt?
