What do you think of it? How does it compare to past designs?

Not a fan compared to the previous incarnations. Looks kind of generic, once you remove the logos. As I understand it, this was more of a forced change than anything else, as the guy who designed the previous one is suing them over replicas of his design being sold without his permission (that's why the whole "ring instead of a belt" thing happened in recent months). This new one is definitely my least favorite of the bunch. Yeah, the first one was just a copy of the old UWF belt, but there's something to be said about a championship belt with history behind it being the most important thing. The title reigns of guys like Samoa Joe, Bryan Danielson, etc. made that design something of value in its own right, overshadowing the UWF design association. The guy who made this new one is the same person who made the below version of the TNA belt. I've always hated how the silver elements of his belts aren't very reflective and shiny. It makes it seem very plastic looking. The same is true with how he did the ROH logos on this new belt.

I like it. Way better than the Rocco belt.
I'll rank the ROH world Title belts as such: UWF style > This current one > HD net era (looks like a midcard title) > Rocco. (because it looks Rocco from Rocco's modern life and can't take it seriously)
And I won't bother ranking that belt that was brought in for the Samoa Joe-Homicide feud.

At least Rocco is wearing a crown

To me the real ROH belt is the original design but this one looks cool though.

Pretty good, hope Ring of Honor actually planned ahead this time so they don't have to change it again.

Yeah, the UWF design is my favorite, the Steen belt at two and then this one. I cannot stand the one Tyler Black held. That one was hideous.
This one reminds me of the WWE Undisputed Title that Brock had which I loved

It's alright. My favorite is still the second version, I like the art-deco vibe.

i like it. the original belt will always be king, but its better than the last one which was ruined for me when someone pointed out it looks like Rocco (which was about fifteen minutes after it was unveiled), and once you see it you can't unsee it

I like the design, but I need to see some people with it to see if I really like it. Guys like Adam Cole, Jay Lethal, and yes, even Cody looked like a million dollars with the last gen belt.

Shit,now I can't unsee Rocco in the Steen belt. Dammit. It's messed up enough the All Japan Triple Crown belt looks like Filburt. They basically share the same plate modeling. It's just that particular plate looks like a Joe Murray character.

Yeah, I can definitely see the resemblance to TNA's Medium Gold Belt

I like it, but it seems kinda unnecessary. I loved the most recent one, it was just a great looking belt and - objectively - the finest belt ROH has ever produced (although, even though I'll admit it's stylistically weaker, the original is my favourite). This one does look nice but like I said I don't get why they needed to change it.
P.S. The Police Badge Belt sucked.

Interesting that the nameplate says “Cody Rhodes,” what with him not being able to use that name and all.
