TNA Wrestling, Ring of Honor, New Japan Pro Wrestling, Chikara Pro, CZW, Women of Wrestling, NWA, World Championship Wrestling. Another note, wish I can find someone that can restore my replicas that I have. They definitely need a good do over since it's been so many years of owning the few I got, lol.

It was an ego thing...that list has shortened when Vince left but some words still remain due to the established branding that was created... although there have been instances where wrestlers have let it slip out but it was mostly to establish the new management and stick it to Vince cause they are no longer reprimanded for saying it like before.

    Honesty tin? If not gold they should at least be silver then gold plated. I mean I get the symbolism but they should hold monetary value as well. If not, all you really have is a hunk of worthless metal. I know the UFC belts are made with two pounds of pure gold. Not that you would, but in theory that belt melt value would be roughly $60,000.00 alone… now that’s something worth fighting for!

    Idk if your speaking for a specific company or all. But wwe and alot of other companys makes their titles out of aluminum. They switched to this to lighten the belts weight. They dont use tin. Theres a few things you got wrong. Google isnt always right. 😂
