It's not great but could be much worse.

It's decent, and different, but I'm not a fan of the side plates. I'd have kept the centre plate as is but had more square or rectangular shaped sides.

Strongly like.
Not my favorite ever, but it looks prestigious and miles better than WWE's Mattel-approved logos-on-a-strap.

It's pretty nice, although not particularly chipper about it.

Gaudy but not horrible. Definitely see them using the original BGB and rodeo buckle designs for inspiration. Love the flow from center plate out, where it looks like it could have been one giant plate if not for the curves.

Not in love with it. I think that it needs some work. Could be much worse still however.

Ehh reminds me too much of the IWGP title which I was never a fan of. I don’t hate it but it could use some color.

I’m not a fan of belts with centerplates that have ridges and edges like that. Not a huge fan of the color either.
Certainly not the worst belt out there, but not one that I would have come up with.

I don't like the AEW logo, it looks tacked on but the belt is cool. To me belts need to be very basic, old fashioned and smart looking or huge gaudy ludicrous things dripping with bling (preferably the latter, it's why I loved the non spinner spinner belth for example) and this is close enough to the latter to be appealing.

It looks good. I think I'd like it more if the AEW logo stood out a bit more. Maybe add some white in the letters, I don't know. Still a solid design.

It looks like a knockoff of the IWGP world title to me. The WWE and TNA titles look horrible these days so by comparison it’s ok. It’s not even close to being up there with classics like the winged eagle, the big gold or the IC title to me if you’re looking for overall comparisons.

It's a good belt. When I saw it last night, I didn't think I liked the big AEW logo just right in the middle, sticking out like that, but when I saw the picture in the OP, I realized it's designed exactly like how the IWGP title is designed.
I've always liked bigger main plates, but the sectioned part isn't bad at all. I seriously can't wait until they start selling replicas. This might be the first belt I shell out money for. Hopefully they won't be 2 grand like the replica IWGP belt was at WM Weekend.

The more I look at it the less I like it. I started out "eh it's ok" but yeah. The colouring and edging makes it look like a cheap IWGP knockoff (Plus I will always prefer proper gold belts), the logo feels a bit TNA/Impact-y slapped in the middle so prominently, and the wavy side plates remind me of the Divas Title, creating the overall impression of a slightly cheap/low-rent and messy belt. I think just changing it to gold and shifting the logo to either be plain metal or smaller and at the top would make a big big difference.

It'd look great around my waist.

After seeing the closer look at it in the latest BTE, I officially change my vote from Like To Love. It's really beautiful up close.

Yeah that's way better looking in that lighting.
I do like how it already looks a bit beat up.

Okay, yeah, that's WAY better than it appeared in that lighting. That's amazing.
