No, I'm not talking about the spinner, I'm talking about this one. Not like the current one is great (or even good, really) but man, it's so much better than this eyesore. That awful blocky zig-zag line, the gaudy-ass CHAMPION (not that the WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION on the current belt is perfect, but at least it's much less obtrusive), the way the WW bleeds slightly onto the frame, damn I'm glad this belt didn't last long.

I think people were so relieved to get rid of that damn spinner belt that they would've accepted a leather strap with a literal dog turd on it.

That's the short-lived one from 2013/2014, right? Yeah, the asymmetry idea did NOT work.

The scratch logo just was just not going to look good being put on the main plate of a title like that. it was meant to be gritty, so having it spelled out in gems with a gold trim just doesn't work.
Also, why the hell did they need to put a copyright symbol on the main plate?

The Scratch logo does not lend itself to being made out of jewels. That top W looks atrocious.

Also, why the hell did they need to put a copyright symbol on the main plate? I didn't even notice that, what the hell? That makes even less sense than the current one for some reason having the logo indented on both sides of the strap in a way that almost never actually shows on TV.

I like the CHAMPION aspect, but that's about it. The current title is definitely an improvement.

I believe the belt in the OP's photo is a replica.

It looks like it's broken, because the font of the W is so uneven. This is fundamentally poor design, there's no symmetry.
That front piece is the last dying gasp of Attitude branding.

Didn't they have the Orange county chopper guys design that? Man that was ugly.

I actually really liked this belt and prefer it to the current version.

I miss when the WWE title looked great and was not just a giant piece of marketing material so when sports teams win championships, there is somehow a WWE logo in the parade because a player is wearing the belt

Yep. From the awesome Eagle belt, to the awesome Attitude belt, to the awesome Undisputed belt. Then the garbage spinner to the garbage class ring to the garbage Universal belt.
The main focus should be an eagle or a globe. Not a giant company logo.

Honestly, my thought? I wonder how this version or even the current children of this design (WWE, Universal, both Women's) would look if instead of scratch or network logos, it used this:

I wonder how this version or even the current children of this design (WWE, Universal, both Women's) would look if instead of scratch or network logos, it used this: The big thing here would be the increase in the amount of stones using a wider logo. You'd probably end up with it resembling the Million Dollar Title, which make for too gaudy of a look for a non-vanity championship.
