Storming near the top of the list mostly as a result of what we know now about the Hulkster’s legendary self-regard, this is as hilarious as it is a traditional, timeless powerhouse of a design.
Not even a masturbatory heel on the level of Rick Rude would have dared to bear his own, smug face on a WWF Championship belt—and there’s Hogan, beaming away, reflecting his own stranglehold on it.
Unlike Hogan, this didn’t last long—and the Immortal One didn’t need to stamp his face on the classic winged eagle to become synonymous with it. That is the mark of a true Champion.
This technically was, too, but it looked weird as sh*t.
