Every Major Wrestling Title Ranked From Ugliest To Most Beautiful

7. AEW World Tag Team Championship

An absolutely gorgeous set of title belts, they are shaped, beautifully, à la the old WCW United States Championship.

The detailing is tremendous; the countering complements and does not detract from the sleek, modern design, nor does the splash of blue look garish against the gold, and the boldness of the lettering is as emphatic as AEW's mission statement to do tag team wrestling correctly. The words WORLD and CHAMPION are pronounced. They are the first feature that draw one's attention. They look nothing like a secondary or tertiary title: they are, as it should be, a World Championship just as much as they are a Tag Team Championship.

A neat touch on the side plate: trainer Jerry Lynn's piledriver is commemorated in a touching nod to his influence over the men who toiled to will the belts into existence.
