WWE could bring back some of the great belt designs of the past.

The championships in WWE are the ultimate reward for all the competitors. All superstars are hoping to win these belts because of the legacy and pride associated with them.

At present, Vince McMahon's promotion has three brands and roughly five to six titles assigned to each of them. In addition to the hierarchical significance of these titles, their design also plays a vital role in their appeal.

While titles such as the NXT United Kingdom Championship are a work of beauty, a few titles may benefit from a change in design.

If WWE decides to redesign these titles, it does not need to create a new design out of scratch. Instead, the promotion can peek into its past and handpick some of its earlier layouts.

Our article will focus on five such title designs that can be brought back. Which of these do you want to see returning to WWE? Share your opinion with us in the comments.

#5 in our list of WWE title designs that can be brought back- The Undisputed Championship

The current WWE Championship layout has been around for almost a decade now. While it was admired around the globe, the big W can be swapped for something more visually pleasing.

The beautiful design of the WWE Undisputed Championship can be brought back if the promotion ever considers changing the current design.

The Undisputed title has seen many changes in the promotion. Furthermore, the likes of Triple H, Brock Lesnar and Eddie Guerrero had their hands on the title, which makes it prestigious as well.

Even though it is one of the most glorious belts in history, its lifespan was relatively shorter than its counterpart. After being introduced in 2002, it retired after just three years.

Then-champion John Cena replaced the belt with his spinner title. It would be spectacular if the promotion somehow brings the undisputed title design back to its programming. Since the current look of the belt has been around for a long time, the promotion can amend it without fans' backlash.

#4. The World Tag Team Titles were visually stunning

The current versions of the tag team titles were introduced in 2016. However, the championship design could benefit from a more interesting modification.

The promotion does not require excessive brainstorming as it can easily reintroduce the World Tag Titles design. The latter's design was terrific and no less than the singles titles.

It may also help bring attention to the tag-team division, which is somewhat overshadowed by main event wrestling.

#3. The WWE Hardcore title design can be reused for the 24/7 Championship

When WWE introduced the 24/7 Championship in 2019, it received some backlash as fans wanted to see the beloved Hardcore Championship back.

Since the promotion didn't bring the title back, it can instead introduce a modified version of its design for the 24/7 Championship.

The Hardcore title's design truly defined the meaning of hardcore. The fans will always welcome such an interesting design, whether it is the Attitude Era or the Modern Era.

#2. The previous Intercontinental design looked better than the current one

Cody Rhodes introduced the new design of the Intercontinental title in 2011, and it was exceptionally fabulous, to say the least. Interestingly, the title was also a re-introduction of the original IC title. Its structure arguably overshadowed the WWE Championship and looked like a title to fight for.

However, the design was entirely changed when Sami Zayn gifted a new one to Shinsuke Nakamura in 2019. Though the current layout is not awful, it isn't on the same level as the prestigious white belt.

Vince McMahon's promotion could bring back the earlier design for the Intercontinental title because it is more prestigious and more visually pleasing.

#1. There is hardly any design as spectacular as The Big Gold Belt

If there's a title that one can fight for just because of how it looks, it is undoubtedly The Big Gold Belt. With a legacy stretching over several decades and promotions, the prestigious design was introduced in WWE as the World Heavyweight Championship.

The design essentially ruled the Ruthless Aggression Era with some all-time greats such as Edge, Batista, Undertaker, Triple H and John Cena holding it.

If the promotion ever decides to bring back any of its earlier title designs, the Big Gold Belt should be the first in line.
