Miro's sinister, delusions-of-grandeur 'Redeemer' gimmick is already among wrestling's best-ever reinventions, and his new TNT Title is glorious. The white strap has a rich history of upper midcard excellence, and the green nameplate is an in-character, regionalised choice that also happens to look gorgeous in itself.

Every TNT Champion has worn a different design in what feels like a deliberate and fascinating choice with huge potential to build its lineage.

MJF with a Burberry strap; Orange Cassidy with a careless, upside down front plate; Eddie Kingston with a barbed wire design: there are real possibilities here for customisation that may visualise just how vibrant and distinct these characters are.
