Most wrestling and boxing championships are represented by a championship belt. In wrestling championships, wrestlers wear the championship belts around their waists or carry them over their shoulders upon winning the title. In professional wrestling championships, the title belt is the recognition of a wrestler's promotion. Wrestlers who draw the greatest fan response will compete with the current champion for the title belt.
Professional wrestling championship belts originated from the championship belts in boxing. Wrestling belts are made of well-designed gold plates. The name of the title and the wrestling promotion are printed on a leather strap with a gold design on the belt. The color and design of wrestling belts vary with each title and promotion. In 2002, all major world wrestling entertainment titles included a nameplate with the current titleholder's name on the bottom of the main faceplate. Recently, World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and World Championship Wrestling (WCW) merged into the World Wrestling Entertainment Undisputed Championship. Since then, a nameplate has been added to the design of the new WWE championship belt.
High-quality leather is used in the production of wrestling belts. The leather has good abrasion and flame resistance. The tensile and bending properties of wrestling belt leather are better than that of any other leather. They are also finely polished to give a shiny look. Wrestling belts are usually designed by the best designers in the world. The title belt for different wrestling championships varies with the design of the nameplate. Wrestling belts have larger thickness and width compared to other belts. The length of wrestling belts can be adjusted to suit the wrestler.
Both amateur and professional wrestling championships give wrestling belts as the title reward. A good wrestler can sustain a large fan following over a period of time. Wrestling championships usually generate fan interest in terms of event attendance and TV viewer ship.
