Cody had the Ring of Honor ring.
The WWF King of the Ring had a trophy the year Edge won it (and that famous belt Mabel never used).
What are some other titles / championships that were represented by objects other than belts?

Chikara's Young Lions Cup is actually a Cup.
Chikara's King of Trios are medals.

Greatest Royal Rumble title unless they decide to do it again of course but right now it's a one off.

I believe the SMW Beat the Champion Television Title was never formally represented as a belt, which made sense given no champion could hold the title longer than five weeks.

Wasn't WCW's Hardcore Championship a trophy originally? I know it eventually BECAME a belt, but I have this vague recollection of various guys lugging a trophy around.

The Mid-South TV Title was originally a medal. When they transformed into UWF, they did an angle where TV champ Dick Slater tossed it off a bridge into the river below; he was subsequently forced by the company to pay for a new belt, which became the new UWF TV title.

Huh so that’s where they stole it when Austin threw the ic belt to the river.

There was a trophy for winning the Junkyard Battle Royal that Fit Finlay carried around (and possibly defended?) until he got that brutal leg injury being put through a table. However, it is not included in the lineage for the WCW Hardcore title, which began with Normal Smiley winning the inaugural title match at Mayhem 99.

IIRC, The PWG Tag Titles were originally two belts. As in, off the rack black leather belts from Wal Mart.
