why did they do this
Yes.
>>18821812To let you know it was inferior to the actual world titles in WWE. Always hated that era of belts and Vince color coding them to their level of importance. The WWECW and Divas titles were silver plated because they meant less than all the other gold plated titles. And of course nothing meant less than the copper plated penny looking tag titles
I thought it looked good desu
>>18821812god forbid they try something new>>18821843Penny tag team titles had a nice design with the helmets but that fucking color
I thought it looked cool; the phoenix motiff completely fits the ECW vibe of rising from the ashes of NWA. I think of Christian when I see it.
>>18821817Humiliation ritual.>>18821928Change is only good when it improves.
I don't get why people hate this title so much.
>>18821891>>18821952>>18821998yikes
>>18822009You want to offer an option on the topic at hand there, jackass?
>>18821812Affliction aesthetic was in at the timeThe belt was essentially made for Mark Henry. It's HUGE.ECW became a prototype NXT around 2008I like that belt
>>18821843ECW was platinum, not silver. It was basically a custom Mark Henry belt that they just kept for everyone after him.
>>18821812it would have been nice to see guys like Christian, Dreamer, and Hardy with the old design
>>18821812They changed it because by that point, the WWE ECW brand had dropped any nostalgia for the original ECW, and the blood and barbed wire design didn't fit the brand identity anymore. They rarely even did Extreme Rules matches, it was just another WWE show.
