Throughout the years, more-so in the past decade really, we've seen the WWF/E Championship belt change repeatedly.
I recall it starting with Stone Cold winning the classic Eagle Spread-Wing belt, which was redesigned after he captured it and the new belt was introduced on his shoulder the following night (blue leather, still eagle, but not spread-wing anymore). The Eagle Spread-Wing would eventually resurface in the WWF/E as the Hardcore Championship, smashed and broken
. The Smoking Skull belt became his representative title during his championship reign(s).
Then we had that belt merged with the WCW World Heavyweight Championship belt, only to introduce the Undisputed Championship. That belt would eventually become recognized as the WWE Championship, and a smaller, refined version of the WCW strap would be introduced as the World Heavyweight Championship currently used today.
For the WWE Championship, guys are rumored to still be given the choice to tote the other strap, but now we've got John Cena's WWE Championship belt in rotation (spinner locked now).
What is your favorite belt of these, and could any of them resurface?
In my own personal opinion, the original WCW World Heavyweight Championship was the finest looking. It was bulky as hell, but something about it was just more spectacular than other championships.
I'd like to see the Eagle Belt resurface somehow.
