Edge & Christian posted:That would have been a few years before Ted became the Million Dollar Man, but it does remind me that it's a shame that the timelines also never lined up for a trios team of Tommy Young, Tommy Rich, and Tommy Dangerous. Add Tommy Dreamer and you'd have a Tommy-themed version of The Four Horsemen

I always forget how ugly the NWA belt was(/is?) but the likes of Flair and Race still looked great holding it.

The story goes that it quickly became stained and discolored from sweat, so without bothering to tell the NWA, champion Jack Brisco paid out of his own pocket to have the belt re-leathered, creating the look that it's famous for.

The Big Gold Belt was an upgrade in every way, but WWE owns that design now, and the NWA is primarily driven by nostalgia, so they won't ever change it.

The AEW title is very clearly inspired by the Big Gold Belt (at least in the sense of being A) quite large and B) quite gold.)

There are so many old wrestler photos of guys with their fists up who look like they're thinking 'ok yay I got my dukes up, I'm ready to fight...just like every other wrestler who has gotten their picture taken in this era...sigh."

The design of the AEW title is far better than that TNA nonsense but Big Gold will always be the best I feel like the AEW championship took its design inspiration from japanese titles but I could be wrong

I was never a fan of the Big Gold Belt because I could never make out any of the detail unless it's a close-up picture like the ones posted above. Then again, I'm colorblind, so it may be easier for other people.

Then again, I'm colorblind, so it may be easier for other people. Wasn't really that much detail to look at in the Big Gold. The words "World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion", a small Earth, a small crown, a small pair of wrestlers grappling. The rest was just a whole lot of swirls.

we're ranking belts??? #1: iwgp current generation belt. tons of intricate little details, four layered which makes it very heavy but gives it a lot of visual depth (the problem with a lot of modern wrestling championships is they're usually only double layered at most which gives off a very flat and light on definition appearance) the nameplates of all the prior holders of it is such a cool touch that no other company seems to have replicated. #2 wwf winged eagle because thats the one bret held #3 aew belt, its big dumb and glitzy as hell. it seems mostly inspired by the wwe spinner to me. #4 big gold belt aka the wrestling convention attender belt #5 the ecw television championship belt that was used in the mid 90s. for reasons why see list option 2

The TNA title is so worthless Sting once basically gave up in a match so AJ Styles could get a shot at it. The AEW title is so valuable an elaborate conspiracy to steal it was hatched within hours of the first champion being crowned.
