(FOUR) WCW TELEVISION TITLE
This belt just looked really heavy. It was a thick hunk of gold. WCW had “big goldie” at the time and it was impressive, but the TV Title was always cooler. When WCW went into the WWE Universe, they recycled a lot of WCW stuff. One thing they didn’t use and should have was the WCW TV Title. That’s the type of belt that if you got hit in the head with it you’d get busted open the hardway.
(THREE) ECW TELEVISION TITLE
The ECW TV Title was cooler than the ECW World Title. Not just because RVD was an awesome champion at the time but because the belt just looked awesome. It had a cool shape to it, cooler fonts, and it actually had some color on it.
(TWO) WWF 1990’s INTERCONTENTIAL TITLE
The two best belts of all time were WWF’s straps from the 90’s. Maybe it was just the fact that this time period was what I grew up with, but these belts were great. The Intercontential Championship was prestigious back in the day and to most people a better belt because of the better matches. Who wouldn’t want this belt? It’s the belt Shawn Michaels and Razor Ramon were reaching for in those Ladder Matches! Amazing.
(ONE) WWF 1990’s WINGED EAGLE WORLD TITLE
To be honest, I could have switched these last two belts. This is me being respectful though. While both belts are great, you have to show proper respect to the old school winged eagle WWF title. It wasn’t a huge gaudy belt, but it was perfect for the times. What it represented was greatness. The design was simple in theory, but pulled off in one of the most majestic displayed of carved metal I have ever seen. This is art.
