An absolutely gorgeous design, it looks all the better for it being such a departure from the WWE norm - not that it needs the help.

An inspired hybrid of two traditions - the colour and shape of the leather is a boxing belt, and the regional design of the plate is pure old school territory stuff - the combined effect is that of legitimacy and prestige.

It's a bit busy-looking, but its allures more than it distracts, and it fits the remit beautifully too: it arrived as the brand entered the highest stratosphere of critical acclaim, and is known exclusively as an achievement of excellence.
