10 Ugliest Wrestling Championship Belts

To be fair, it's really hard to make a decent-looking belt with a tremendous "X" on it - if you don't believe me, just look at the NXT Championship. Over the years, TNA has had a few different designs for the X Division Championship, and while a few are often included amongst "all-time worst" lists, this 2013 redesign takes the cake.

For starters, the belt has a sideways oval for a center plate - like the Attitude Era Intercontinental Title - which is hard to make work. They don't even seem to be trying, though, as there's also a giant "X" that's actually larger than the plate itself. Still, the most notable thing about this championship is the blue trim, which is so out of place that in all of the pictures of the replica titles from ShopTNA.com, they're actually laid on a blue backdrop. This third-party photo shows just how jarring the blue is by itself.

In 2015, TNA redid the belt by changing the blue to green, proving that they don't learn from their mistakes.
