I love Cena, and I liked the spinner. But why was it used till 2013? I know Cena’s top guy run was a long ass time but there was a period of time when he was in a different BRAND than the spinner and was carrying the big gold belt, and not changing it at all. There was also the year and a half long Punk reign which could or should of changed things.

Bingo. The kid's version sold like gangbusters, no way they were getting rid of it until they absolutely had to. |

it was probably around longer without the spinning part than when it did spin ... someone check the dates  I miss the spinner belt cause it looked like something and it's overly gaudy like a title belt... the current giant belt buckle is just boring |

Title was replaced in 2013 |

I actually liked the look of the belt when it stopped spinning vs the original, but did think it fit RVD when he won it.

To sell toys and the belt was seldom that long from a return to Cena anyway.

The weirdest part is when they did change the title design, Cena won it back like a month later lol

Same, though wish they just went ahead and elongated the 'CHAMP' on the front to the full 'CHAMPION.' It might've gone some way to casting doubt on the sense the title was only being kept warm for Cena. |

I always thought it was funny how they made it spin again on its last night just so Rock could riff on it.

Because it was a great f***ing belt and I'm sick of everyone knocking it. I'll take both Cena Spinners over the boring ass Undisputed title any day.

I unironically liked the spinner belt. It just had a lot of personality that's lacking in the current belts.

Literally my least favorite title belt ever. Wanted to throw a party when they changed it. Looked hideous and looked like a toy. I'll take the bland titles now over it any day.
