#2 The intricate details of the new belt

The brand new US title

The brand new WWE United States title belt that MVP introduced on a recent episode of WWE RAW is an incredibly fine piece of art. Although there's a part of the WWE Universe that still prefers the old US title, many are hoping that the new belt replaces it.

The new title belt consists of three plates, with the one on the center shaped like a heptagon. On the topmost part of the plate, you can see the WWE logo, along with white stars on the background, which is in gold.

The middle part of the plate features the words "United States Champion", with the last taking up most of the space. An eagle is featured on the bottom of these three words, with its wings spread out across the shiny late.

The bottom-most part of the plate features the red & white stripes of the US flag. Finally, we have the side plates, that features the WWE logo that's slapped over a globe.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
