Only one title is commonly known by two words, Winged Eagle.

Ever since I decided to do this article, there's been one constant as far as which title would have the number one spot and that title is the WWF Championship, "winged eagle" edition.
There's yet to be a more beautiful, carefully designed and elegantly placed belt. When a superstar held this title, his presence commanded reverence. There was no question, that person was THE guy. Period. With the overflowing eagle that it's infamously remembered for, this title also had crisp, gold detail, along with the classic black leather strap. However, there have been variant colored straps, such as the yellow one worn by The Ultimate Warrior. There's no question which title is worthy of the top spot, the legendary winged eagle.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
