Came across a thread at BeltTalk.com as well as a video at YouTube of the WWE Championship on display at Toysrus in Times Square.... Judging by the photos and videos, its absolutely beautiful when seen up close! The replica just doesn't come close! Photos of the real title that is on display right here >>> www.flickr.com/photos/73428899@N00/sets/72157633016472651/ |

The real one currently has brahma bulls on it, and what are they suppose to pick it up at toysrus when they need it, definatley dont think thats the real one at all, just good marketing on both wwe and toysrus' part

How can you not tell between a replica and the real one? See the video. See the photos. Then go see photos of the replica, including the replica in my signature. Thicker plates with sharper etching, and the leather tooling behind the WWE logo on the main plate clearly proves its the real one. Also the side plates have the WWE logo raised whereas on the replica, the sideplate is almost flat.. And the WWE has more than one of the same title as shown in a photo Dave Millican uploaded at his facebook... Dave Millican is the one who did this title for the WWE.... And he has done at least 2 WWE Championships of the same design with different sideplates... One of which is the one on display at Times Sq >>>>  |

The photo set that Becks posted was taken and uploaded by me this past Saturday. It is, indeed, the real deal on display in Times Square to promote WrestleMania.
You really can't appreciate all the detail that's in this belt until seeing it up close (this coming from a guy who's owned the replica for nearly a month now). The tooling behind the "Big W" makes the WWE logo stand out so much more, the gems truly pop and shine as you move around it, and it's simply just nice to see the title in any capacity, what with the Champion being busy elsewhere.[/CheapRockJab] I give major props to Dave Millican and OCC for the upping the level of craftsmanship on championship belts with this one.

Surprised to see you here Patriot! I didn't realize you are apart of this forum as well! So you have the replica of the new title? You should upload them to Flickr, that place is lacking photos of that replica...hahaha.. |

Much like nameplates, those medallions will be switched when a new champion is crowned; some wrestlers may have personalized medallions, the rest will have the red globe with the WWE logo and crown on top (as seen on the TRU display belt and replicas). Surprised to see you here Patriot! I didn't realize you are apart of this forum as well! So you have the replica of the new title?

It's definitely a real one.
THE real ONE, though, is probably in the Rock's luggage somewhere.
There's more than one.

the quality of the replica seems piss poor. the gap on the w is painted. the leather around the w is plain and the side plates are flat as! it may only be me but the jewels look smaller and not as impressive, the ones on the real belt look like they stick out more

You can say that again... Those flaws is what makes it a replica, not exactly perfect... Can't compare to the real one. The leather can be replaced to look like the real one if you go to a person who does releathering for these belts. I've seen some replicas with good releathering work that has the leather around the W logo tooled out like the real one. Still, by default, it is a good looking replica thats for sure and is probably the closest we can all have to the real one  |

Thats awesome. I really like the new design (moreso without the rocks plates) and it must have been great to see up close to fully appreciate the detail because in poor lighting the belt doesnt have justice done to how cool it actually looks. I like the look of this belt, hope it sticks around for a few years.

Put a blue/geen earth design inplace of the plane black leather behind the W and that belt would look really nice.

Real, replica, spare, it still looks like a turd. Seriously? Why waste time posting if you have nothing of value to contribute? Leave such childish comments elsewhere. Anyway, just FYI guys, here is a couple of photos of the replica and the real one.... Seriously, in my opinion, I think the replica is still well made considering and its nicely detailed, just like the spinner replica before this.... Have fun comparing!

I wish it had the Brahma Bulls on the sideplate so we could all say, "Yeah, it's not like The Rock was using it, so why not drop it off at TRU til Mania..."
