The Rock Has Held a Lot of Belts

The Big Eagle, the Smoking Skull, the Brahma Bull, the Undisputed Title, the Spinner Belt, and now the Big Logo, or whatever you want to call it. The Rock has held more iterations of the WWE Championship than anyone in history.

+ The ECW Championship That Never Was
Personally, I was a fan of the big silver belt. The old ECW title was an abomination and the big gold belt is perhaps the best looking belt ever made, so why not take after it when rebooting ECW? I really liked the firey eagle and how it was incorporated into the intro of the show. Maybe it’s a good thing they stuck with the silver before abandoning the ECW brand and title altogether (along with final champion Ezekiel Jackson), but I like this colorful red and gold fan design.

+ WCW Light Heavyweight Championship Custom Replica
As it would turn out, the WCW Light Heavyweight Championship only had four champions hold the title over the course of nine months. In that short period of time, Brian Pillman held it twice, Jushin Liger had it once, Scotty Flamingo (Raven) had it for fifteen days, and Brad Armstrong was the last to hold it before having the title stripped from him due to an injury. There was supposed to be a tournament to crown a new WCW Light Heavyweight Champion in late 1993, but that never occurred and the championship would eventually be brought back as the WCW Cruiserweight Championship close to four years later.
