Wow... Let's show everyone what we think of the Diva's and ECW Titles by not making them gold, gold-plated, or some Technicolor HSN bullshit gold-tone. Way to go VinnyMac!

Is it me, or does the new ECW belt look a lot like the IWGP 3rd Championship belt?
In case people don't know, it was the one New Japan made for Brock Lesnar's run.
That aside, I'd say it's a pretty good looking belt.
Posted By: scipio2009 (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 12:53 AM
Ok it's officially official....the only surviving entity of ECW being the original ECW championship is gone and therefore ECW as we know it is officially DEAD! Well....once Tommy Dreamer leaves....probably in the next 3 months then ECW as we know and love it will be extinct. There I said it!

Reminds me of the WCW TV title.
Posted By: dee76 (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 01:04 AM
Not bad from that picture. Has an oldschool look to it. But nothing is as oldschool as the original belt.
I was hoping for a secondary belt on ECW. Even tho WWE has 10000000 belts already, ECW really needs a secondary belt. They should have kept the Smackdown title. But thats gone.
Anyways....there goes another bit of the old ECW.
Posted By: Guest#4342 (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 01:06 AM
Wow.. maybe i'll be the only one who thinks so, but thats a sweet ass belt..

I don't know why everyone hates it not being gold. Gold looks tacky as hell. This belt is sexy.
Posted By: Michelle (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 01:18 AM
I think it looks good. From the pic it looks huge, like a silver version of the Big Gold Belt.
Sidenote: Silver belt for a silverback?

platinum belts now?
Posted By: houston's finest (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 01:22 AM
It's a nice enough looking belt. Just doesn't have the presence that a World Championship should have. Looks like a secondary belt. But I suppose that's what it is really.
Posted By: Angry Hoolio (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 01:25 AM
MUCH better than the old belt, I'm loving the newer looking belts SD/ECW has, I'm not really liking the gold, old style belts Raw has.
FYI, the spinner belt isn't a spinner
Hopefully this belt is a start in a new direction of ECW

Nothing is too sliver for the Silverback, Mark Henry.

Posted By: Jones (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 01:32 AM
I think it's awesome, It differentiates the ECW belt from the others and it seperates the new ECW from the old. The old ecw is dead, and the title is dead with it.
Posted By: Rocky (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 01:40 AM
I am just thankful it doesn't spin. And who the hell are you all kidding, if someone handed you that thing you know you'd put it on. Or at least sling it over your shoulder and stare in the mirror a lot.

Posted By: timmy (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 02:11 AM
I prefer Gold, but Platinum is not bad, assuming that is Platinum. The "winged" eagle is a pretty good nod to the old belt. better than that winged butterfly.
Posted By: Booker T (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 02:21 AM
I like it. I think it's a nice looking belt. I like what appears to be a phoenix on it. The background design is interesting, though the similarities to Iron Crosses on it makes me think Triple H may have had a hand in the design. I actually don't care that it's not gold. Personally, I think silver or platinum can look nice too. Plus, and let's be honest, the ECW World Title isn't given the importance the WWE or World Heavyweight Titles are. It's very much like the WCW TV Title. Which is OK. ECW is a one hour show with mostly third tier talent and a few vets. It's been held by some great guys like RVD and Big Show, as well as Kane, but it's also been held by Chavo Guerrero and John Morrison. It's basically a mid-card title, which is the reason why ECW doesn't need a mid-card title. It's a mid-card show.

Nice big World Wrestling Entertainment banner right above the ECW logo, and the WWE logos on the sides. They may as well call it Entertainment Championship Wrestling.
Well, it's still better than the Diva's Title.

I like it better then the old one, which, mind you, I have never liked. I still think that the ECW Tag Titles were the best belt(s) that ECW ever had. But, in my opinion, this belt is rad. All retro and stuff.
Posted By: Screw you guys! (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 02:38 AM
i think the belt looks kinda nice. ECW is supposed to be all about hardcore, so a belt that's not all gold and shiny sets it apart.
Posted By: Guest#3512 (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 02:38 AM
Am I seeing this correctly, or does it say World Wrestling Entertainment on top? Then to top it off it says, WWE on the side of the belt. Wow, ECW has officially died! Where have you gone Paul E.!!!!
Posted By: Phantasm (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 02:46 AM
All that title needs is the spinning face of Mark Henry on it. TOP NOTCH!!
Posted By: Hull (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 02:57 AM
I'm sick to my stomach! what the hell is that! some kind of sick joke!
No offense, but that's the most femenine championship belt I've ever seen.
Naming that the ECW championship, is spitting on the legacy of ECW. Once again that doesn't even look like a male's championship belt. As if loosing CM Punk to raw wasn't enough of an excuse to not watch ECW anymore, this is joke of a championship belt is the straw that broke the camels' back.
ECW is officially in life support, one more punch and we can declare it dead.

Rhino burned the real one on Impact so why not?
Posted By: D (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 03:06 AM
I like it. And for everyone who keeps saying the spinner belt doesn\'t spin we realize that. It\'s just what people call it. I bet the million dollar belt wasn\'t worth a million dollars, but people will still call it the million dollar belt. It is just a referance point now calling it the spinner belt. Everyone knows what you are talking about when you say that.
Posted By: Jay (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 03:11 AM
To me it just looks like te made a bigger belt to fit mark henry since the ECW belt was small
Posted By: Hooded Angel (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 03:17 AM
Wait wait wait wait wait. Woah. Wait. Woah. So while the WWE Championship has been represented by that spinner belt even though John Cena hasn't held it in ages, they go ahead and decide to change a belt that didn't NEED changing, while keeping one that seriously NEEDS changing the same?
Bull to the s***. Priorities, Vince, priorities.
Posted By: Guest#9310 (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 03:30 AM
It looks like the ECW wrestlers will have to hunt for championship silver!
Anyways, I like the logo because the old one looked like junk, however, it makes the title look secondary. Just like how silver is 2nd and gold is 1st in the Olympics. I'm okay with the change because it looks.....okay!
Posted By: Chris (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 03:32 AM
Why doesnt it say wwe on top, gay!
Atleast it isnt missleading by saying hardcore wrestling or world heavyweight championship couse it clearly doesnt represent either.

kinda looks like the US title (shape)
Posted By: JK (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 04:47 AM
Gold belts are so, like me, 90s. Platinum/Silver looking ones are in. It may not be the best looking belt out there, but it is far better looking than the original one.

News flash, marks:
PAUL HEYMAN was the one who killed ECW deader than a preacher's dick a loooong time ago.
The old belt and using a "worker" like Tommy Dreamer as anything more than a mid-card jobber as symbols of Heyman's flash-in-the-pan show belong buried in the past.
This belt actually LOOKS like a wrestling belt and not something made at the local bowling alley trophy shop.

As for the tacky looking leather, they'll likely replace the strap sooner or later, or wait for it to wear in properly. I like it either way.

The belt looks really nice. The only thing is the heavy presence of silver, which makes it look second-rate. Idealistically, the belt should be treated as a World Championship. At least throw a little gold on there.

I actually really like the new strap. I mean lets be honest this isn't the old ECW anymore ,so why not a new Belt?
I like its old school quality. I think they should've added some Gold to it, just to give it a little more class. But hey, who knows? They might claim its made of platnium lol. Its bigger then the old strap which gives it a little more respect in my eyes. Now what they have to do is change that horrible spinner belt that Triple H has on smackdown.
Posted By: Nick Price (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 10:40 AM
i don't know why they had to change the belt the one they had was good,this title
sucks and why silver, anyway they should just end ecw all together its not the same. what also they should do is bring back and other wwe title, cena don't have the belt and it does not spin no more so why have it.

Posted By: Guest#1837 (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 11:24 AM
I guess I'm in the minority, I don't like that it's not gold. Platinum? Platinum is about twice as expensive as gold, do you think they would use platinum for their C show belt? It is silver, it looks like it should be some regional secondary title. The champ should be in gold. The design itself it nice, but the color is just wrong. And I liked the old ECW belt.
And we all know the "spinner" belt doesn't spin, that is just the easiest way to describe the belt.
3 world titles:
Big gold belt
Spinner belt
Silver belt

Posted By: cough (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 11:38 AM
Ya, know change is always met with resistance especially by us wrestling fans, but this belt does not suck. Sure I hate that ECW, the entity, that really rejuvinated my passion for this industry is dead, but truthfully it was before and never was reborn. At best the WWECW brand has been like a evil twin if you will allow me to steal a concept from soap operas. But the way I have decided to look at this belt is, if it was 10 years ago and Paul Heyman was presenting this belt to Taz with one Z, I would think it looks cool, so that is how I have to judge it.
Posted By: T-Phunk (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 12:14 PM

Posted By: jt (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 01:20 PM
Ok here is the problem if there is one. The leather is stitched together with the backing. The leather has no tooling. That is the only bad thing. No one mocks the ROH belts. They are all nickel.

What gets me is that there are more WWE logos on that belt than there are ECW. Vince just WANTS everyone to know ECW is his company. BTW - what is supposed to make the ECW title different that any other belt in the WWE? it's not like there are different rules in ECW.
Besides that, it's not bad. Now if Smackdown can get a new World title it would be cool.
Posted By: Rollie (Guest) on July 23, 2008 at 05:10 PM

honestly , i hate the ecw brand all together that belt , since its under wwe promotions its like calling saying "welcome to WWE ECW!" since its a brand like "WWE SMACKDOWN"
it all sounds and looks lame. ECW isn't what it used to be, you might has well call it Eastern championship wrestling again cus there is no extreme in the show anymore. no hardcore matches such as barbwire , table ,NOTHINGG
cus ECW sucks, always did ,always will!
good looking belt tho. could have taken the wwe stuff off it , to make it more appropriate for some shread that paul freakin heymen carried straight to bankruptcy!

hello? isn't the ecw 2007 make of the title a remake of the original title just a duller gold and changed the lettering from purple to red? for goodness sake the tile is only a year old and why do they need a new one? afterall, the new title is dammned nicer than the old remakes. good for you ecw it's about dammned time for a new title and a new look instead of a title that looked shitty in the first place. i llok forward to seeing no competitors vying for the new prestigious gold! good luck to all in the future! that is if you can get by the world strongest man first, hahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is much better than the old ECW title belt --i dont know y u people r sayin it sux---cuz all the other belts are all gold...y is it wrong for them to finally make a belt thats not gold for once?? The black and silver color is perfect for ECW-the old belt looked like crap cuz it had an ugly shape, and the letters on it were bloody scribbled letters! Anf this new platinum belt has normal letters..

for those of u who weren't sure, yes u are correct, it is platinum, and not silver. "apparently", the divas belt is as well. not too sure myself bout that one, but the new ECW title is definately platinum. and i agree with some of u, the new ECW is not the original ECW, and as much as i loved the old school ecw belt design, i'm liking this new one. it suits this particular 'new ECW' product better. and the belt design could have been much much worse. personally i love the design, very old school wrestling, and it will look good around the waists of people like matt hardy, evan bourne, and some other younger ECW wrestlers.

Well, why not, since the true ECW's been dead and buried for a long time, anyways? This is like spitting on it's grave, so I'm not really surprised. WWE would do this, and it's apply appropriate.
And I seriously doubt WWE would use a high-calibur metal like Platinum on a belt that's barely on the level of the United States title. I'll be damned if that is Platinum.

I hear that the wwe title is getting remade soon, I don't know if it's a complete redesign or jmar will just change the raw side plate back to the smackdown plate.
Anyway wwe needs to stop designing their own belts and go back to letting jmar design them for them. The new ECW title doesn’t look that bad but the new divas does, it reminds of when jmar refused to make the WCW hardcore title back in 99.

i imagine (and this is just a theory) that the reason the spinner belt has been around longer than what we all thought is because in some higher up person at WWE's opinion that this particular design looks better on some of the younger wrestlers who have held it, so WWE may be heading towards the next generation of wrestlers to lead the way (look at most of the current champs now). obviously it looked good on cena. but edge, RVD, orton? it looked really good on them, too. i think it does. HHH, of course, doesn't suit the belt, but when u've held it 6 times who gives a stuff. i think there's probably more people who think the spinner belt's cool than there are who dont.

The spinner belt is still being used because it is the top selling replica of Figs Inc "the wwe world heavyweight is becoming a close second". Also they say that the reason that the RAW side plate with the lock design, and the CHAMP plate was never changed was to keep from messing up the replicas. Figs INC has been known in the past to get ill with JMAR for changing paint colors and such, and Figs INC are sacred that they will get stuck with a bunch of belts that nobody wants like when WWE changed the Undisputed ver 1 to ver 2.
It has also been the top requested item from the Make A Wish Foundation for a couple of years now and I can’t remember since the smoking skull, and the original big gold belt first appeared people in the mainstream talking about a wrestling belt.

I honestly like the look of the belt, but I'm a much bigger fan of the belt they were using before hand (the old ECW title that they modified by basically just coloring in some black on it and making the ECW logo red). In all honestly though, the ECW brand should be decommissioned. It's nothing but a glorified sunday night heat with it's own world title. It's a slap in the face to the original promotion, PERIOD.

has anyone thought that it might be white gold or platinum? just a thought. its probably not though in reality but hey i'm sure the gold belts aren't expensive gold either, just cheap crap.

i was never huge on the original Eastern Championship Wrestling or Extreme Championship Wrestling. The old school ECW titles were pretty shocking, they updated the last oringial ECW title design but changed the logo and put World Wrestling Entertainment on it somewhere. This however is absolutely hideous, why is it silver (it's clearly not about gold anymore thats fo sure) Nothing remotely interesting about this design, i hate to say it but the designs are really bad, firstly the Diva's championship....why not allow the women to compete on all brands? Te WWE title looks crap and the World Heavyweight Title is a reminder of WCW. I thought WWE were supposed to be moving on? All WWE Titles need revamping and SOON!!!! VINCE SORT IT OUT MATE YEAH????!!!!!???

Belt looks like a toy belt. Sure could have done something better with that "plastic looking strap". Dual-toned would have been better than all silver. looks a lot like the DIVAS title. NOT IMPRESSED.

I dunno.. The belt looks good (clean, burnished "platinum", no-nonsense). But the strap looks like it's made in China from REALLY cheap PVC.
