Hate that display method, they should have the belt either completely flat, or completely closed, not flopping awkwardly like that.

I wish they would've just gone back to using all the old style belts like they did with the IC title - just make some like the WE slightly bigger, and make the plates slightly thicker on them. Those tag titles look AMAZING on all the teams, I miss having belts that looked like they had some meaning and were respectable.

Agreed. It makes the belts a little different, and brings forward the concept of two people working together as a tag team.

I loving hate the custom side plates. I loving hate custom belts of any kind, including the smoking skull belt. The title should be bigger and more important than any one wrestler, and adding anything custom to it just diminishes the importance of the title itself, in my opinion. I just wanted to rant about this and I felt this was he best place because we are doing belt talk.

It would have been the most cartoonish belt ever, with no possible middle ground between the best belt ever and the worst belt ever.

They're really bad and look like giant pennies. Copper is not a good belt color.

What's the story here? I don't remember Jindrak ever being on TV as part of Evolution, so was it just a planned thing that never materialized? Anyone know anything else about that?

I sent this to my buddy, and he said he just watched the new HHH documentary and HHH talks about how much he hated Jindrak.

I can't imagine HHH talking about Mark Jindrak in 2013 but here we are! Here comes the shovel indeed.

I looked at the "Seven Special Titles" article, and I guess I missed LayCool cutting the Women's Belt in two. Also, Moolah's Women's Championship is the ultimate tribute to megalomaniacal Championships (fitting for Moolah).

I never understood why the Intercontinental title has Africa and Europe on it. It's "intercontinental" because it's supposed to represent North and South America, hence why the supposed tournament where Pat Patterson won it was in Brazil.

And technically it does represent Europe now too, ever since it was merged with the Euro title. But yeah, has it ever even been defended in Africa?
