According to the usually reliable Dan Beltzer, WWE could soon be about to introduce a new United States Championship belt.

Beltzer, who runs Belts by Dan and has previously made several belts for WWE, took to Twitter to reveal that WWE has received a new United States Championship belt that could debut any day now.

After defeating AJ Styles during an episode of Raw last month, Rey Mysterio is the current United States Champion – with Rey Rey confirmed to defend the title against Seth Rollins on next week’s Raw broadcast.

Back in November, Dan also revealed that WWE is reportedly sitting on new SmackDown Tag Team Titles. In fact, if Beltzer is once more on the money, the company has actually been in possession of these new belts for over six months.

One other newsworthy piece of information from all of this, is that Wildcat Championship Belts is now responsible for designing for majority of new WWE titles these days – including the recently debuted Intercontinental Championship currently held by Shinsuke Nakamura.

Previously, UK outfit Leather Rebels had been designing belts for WWE. Well, that was until sexual misconduct claims were made earlier this year by some of the models who had worked with Leather Rebels.
