This is damn near perfection to me, I'd prefer the WWE logo and crown to swap places, but it's great, by far my favorite WWE title design lately.

Didn't they just unveil different new tag belts the other day?

[-] BowserBasher@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Those were the World Tag Titles (formerly Raw Tag Titles) these are the WWE Tag Titles (formerly Smackdown Tag Titles). They have now changed all title names to WWE Title or World Title.

It says "undisputed" on the graphic?

Lazy graphics department lol. The belts were the "Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship" for the last 2 years, so they titled the graphic after that name. They technically should have titled the graphic "WWE Tag Team Championship" which is what the name now is with the reveal of these new belts and them being split.

For the life of me, I do not understand why there are 2 of each title. If they go with brand-specific titles, drafts cause stupid things like title swaps. If they go with “WWE” and “World” you end up with unequal championships. Seth and Priest already have the lesser world title. The only tier that doesn’t seem to have this problem is IC and US, but arguably the US title SHOULD be lower.

They just spent months having Seth, Cody, Rock, and Roman appearing on both shows. We just went through a period where the tag champs were unified and appearing everywhere.

Triple H is supposed to care about wrestling. This is screwing with title lineages and storylines and the overall product. Since this is supposed to be a new WWE, I suppose I’ll give it a try. But, this has never worked out in the past. Can’t see why this will be different.

Users are expected to be civil and inclusive towards one another at all times. Remember the person on the other side of the screen. Hate speech, racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia and other inflammatory language is prohibited.

2. Keep content related to wrestling.

Any content posted should at least be related to pro wrestling somehow.

3. Spoilers.

Do not spoil events for people. If an event is going on, please keep discussion contained to the/a discussion thread for 24h after the event. Do not post spoilers in titles during this period. Use the spoiler function when you need to, it's there for a reason.

4. Vague/Editorialized Title.

Please keep the titles of any articles you post clear, understandable, and indicative of what the article states within. It's ok to alter the title if the original is clickbait and confusing, or contains a spoiler like a debut that just occurred that day, but do not add your own thoughts to it.

5. Sexualized Content/'Plot'.

Please do not post any pornographic, 'creep shot', or similar adult-related material to the community (regardless of connection to wrestling). Wrestling content that involves sexualized content (in storylines/matches/promos) is fine, as well as photo's wrestlers post to their own social medias. Butt-shots you take with your cell phone at a house show aren't.
