WWE Universal Championship Design Leaked?

Can we expect a bit more colour to come with the gold?

Best to take this one with a pinch of salt, but a user on Reddit has posted what they claim to be a linked draft design of the yet-to-be-unveiled WWE Universal Championship.

As many have assumed, the belt has a red background with the WWE Championship taking on a blue equivalent, indicating the brands the title are exclusive too.

Whilst this isn't the most official of sources, the user has frequently posted title belt leaks in the past. His name is also 'Da Belt Guy', and if that isn't reason enough to believe the source then I don't know what is.

If this is indeed legitimate then it captures the belt in a very early stage of the design, clearly seen by the text on both belts. The belt also brings a consistency in design across the board, with the WWE World, Universal and Women's Championship following the same lines.

If these belts were being introduced for the very first time, I would be in favour of the designs. However, as it requires changing the WWE Championship I have my doubts, as there is a sense that it devalues the title somewhat. We'll have to wait and see.
