[@sflosi34]

The belts missing on this for me are the Undisputed Championship and the Winged Eagle

[@bash8387]

I was yelling at them to mention the winged eagle belt lol

[@DugoutMugsOfficial]

Yeah idk why those weren't on the list we used (we didn't make it). For the record: Undisputed and Winged Eagle are S tiers

[@sflosi34]

@Lumberlend I thought it was something like that. I agree with the S ranking for both belts. The Winged Eagle belt has so much history attached to it.

[@johnwinning5724]

I maybe the only person but I believe the undisputed title is on the same level of the Big Gold, but the big gold is the greatest belt ever

[@obedvelez3728]

Just about to say that

[@pleaseshutup7053]

Watching this channel slowly transform into a wrestling channel is Fantastic.

[@aaronaldunateterceros3925]

Yep

[@codycrowell3099]

You guys should do another tier list but of the arenas/stages they used. Like the Smackdown Fist and Armageddon for example

[@boofgangblake6461]

facts

[@50.CalFilms]

Money in the bank 2011 was cool

[@Kanders190]

The PPVs would be tough because in the late 90s/early 2000s every PPV was unique

[@DugoutMugsOfficial]

Not a bad idea 👀

[@RacerGRX3]

Twist on the idea: Rate the Wrestlemania stages

[@Magnum_Dong]

I am shocked that the Winged Eagle wasn't on this list. That and Big Gold are everyone's favorites. The Big Eagle is on here even though it's a reshaped Big Eagle. Also, you really should have ranked the NXT UK titles and the North American title cause they're all beautiful belts.

[@RyanConnell5150]

8:53 I think the whole point of the logo being so big is that when WWE gives sports teams custom belts after those teams win championships in their leagues, it's advertising for WWE.

[@geographygreg1091]

When John said 'Early 90's, Attitude Era' my brain died

[@jamesashley6487]

Y’all fr make my day 1000% better, keep up the good work guys. I started by just watching the wresting content every Sunday but now I look for all lumberlend videos now!

[@koxifyrind]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaaliaV8m9-fZpY 1

[@DugoutMugsOfficial]

Love to hear it! Thanks for the support

[@jeffhenry7643]

Really would love to know your guys’ opinion on belts that were designed by only 1 particular wrestler. Stone Cold’s broken skull title, The Rock’s Brahma bull title, Edge’s rated R WWE title and others

[@drchillbear]

Great list, I'm surprised the new United States Championship wasn't brought up, It's not the strongest, but looks pretty cool and more cleaner than the other current belts imo

[@jordanbrierley1255]

It’s the best looking main roster title

[@jueezzzz]

Its better than the old design

[@MarkDemeo]

The classic winged eagle belt should be in there,so much history with it,and clearly has to go S catagory.

[@fuckmelvin6089]

Genuinely don’t know how they dropped the ball so bad. That and the undisputed title.

[@tylerowens2198]

great video! rank past arenas please! i think it would be a sick idea

[@Jitsnapping904]

First NXT championship = C First NXT Womens championship = C 205 Cruiserweight championship = B John cena spinner championship =A Silver ECW championship = C WWF world championship = B Old cruiserweight championship = D White Intercontinental championship = S Divas championship = D ECW world championship = B New NXT championship= A New Raw & SD Tag titles = C SD womens championship = C Raw Womens championship = C Current WWE championship = C Universal Championship = C Mid 2000s Intercontinental championship= B 24/7 Championship = F- worst belt made tbh Hardcore Championship = C World heavyweight championship= A 2000 U.S championship = A Women championship from 2000s = D European championship = D NXT championship = B 2010s Tag team championships = C Womens tag team championship = B New intercontinental championship = B+ Everything else in the vid gets a = C The rocks 2013 Championship = B This is my list of opinions what’s your list looking like?

[@YourAverageFan]

It’s crazy you guys left off the best title design ever with the Winged Eagle.

[@adnaanjeetoo]

Please guys can you do a gear tier. Love your videos. Can’t wait for next👌🏽

[@TheJStale]

Just out of curiosity, I'd love to know where you'd rank the old SmackDown Tag Team title and the new US title since both were not included on here.

[@BobbyJr_]

The new US title looks better than the old one imo. It's the one design they got right.

[@KingJadInfiniteHope]

the old US belt is better than the new one, same with the old tag belts if you mean the ones from the 2000’s.

[@bryguy4446]

The old Smackdown tag team belts (officially the WWE Tag Team Championship during the Ruthless Aggression era) were beautiful. The World Tag Team Championship belts also were great.

[@Hardy1298]

I came here to post the same thing. Those are the ones stephanie introduced back in her GM days.

[@Mr_Leo_DS]

@@BobbyJr_ definitively, the old title looks goofy, but it should have been silver instead of gold

[@RacerGRX3]

Great video, guys. I really enjoyed it..."to be honest with you" ;-)

[@BoydBronco11]

I’m consistent getting earlier to each Lumberlend wresting video - couldn’t be more proud.

[@koxifyrind]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaaliaV8m9-fZpY 3

[@kane.scales]

Video ideas: - guess the wrestlemania - guess the year - guess the ppv - read an iconic quote from a promo and guess who said it - guess the catchphrase/tagline (could be too easy not sure) - list 3 facts about a wrestler (e.g height, weight and hometown) and guess the wrestler - guess the previous gimmick (not my idea someone else in comments suggested it so shoutout to you) - more tier lists

[@thejking5338]

Hardcore Title as a C? Nah S, it was amazing with the people (Kane,Raven,Hardcore/Crash Holly, Rvd,) and the whole 24/7 was actually done, not this backstage it was full on Circus’s, Hotels,Arcade and all, (My opinion that title is way better then the Nxt womens,Nxt mens (now). Story wise and look wise)

[@jljl7]

Great video!

[@koxifyrind]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaaliaV8m9-fZpY 1

[@DugoutMugsOfficial]

Thanks!

[@FiendFyreNyx]

minus all of the new belts looking the same, sd and raw womens, wwe and universal, i like that there are the custom sideplates that can add a personal touch to whoever is the title belt holder at the time. however that is something they can do while also making the belt look different from the others.

[@DugoutMugsOfficial]

true that is a cool part of the new designs

[@ToxicBanana]

If you guys do this in the future you should think about linking the tier list in the description or something so we can do it along with you! I tried finding this list so I could do it and see where our opinions match up but I wasn't able to, unfortunately.

[@DTLSinger]

First replica/commemorative belt I bought was the white strap IC belt. That one and the Attitude Era IC belt are my favorites. I also have the black strap WWE title replica, and the WCW big Gold.

[@lukeblackman6508]

I know the spinner belt gets a lot of flank but dang it is what I grew up with when I really watched wrestling

[@rickharrison1397]

It’s amazing don’t let anyone else tell you otherwise

[@stoiatv]

Plz give us more quizzes! I look forward to them

[@andrewboudreau5279]

I agreed with the majority of your decisions. Good stuff!

[@koxifyrind]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaaliaV8m9-fZpY 1

[@noir853]

you guys should do wrestler entrance by tier next. From the entrance song, the pyro, the lighting, the wrestler antics itself

[@Spectral_wolf97]

Wrestling Video idea: Guess the WWE wrestler by their nickname. Ex: brock Lesnar (the beast) Roman reigns (the big dog) Etc.

[@DugoutMugsOfficial]

Not a bad idea!

[@gizmomypet4359]

"I think we made a perfect list" whilst missing one of the most recognisable and legendary belts in the history of the WWF/E. You guys realise the 80s+90s exists?

[@johnbenson8670]

Would love to see tier list of other wrestling or a combination of other wrestling company’s

[@cheffrully6512]

ngl there’s not a single belt in wwe today that i like, big gold will never be topped

[@RyanConnell5150]

Continuing the brand specific colored strap conversation, since the Universal title is the one that is colored, when they put up the digital belt graphic before WWE World Heavyweight Championship matches, the belt's strap briefly flashes the color of its brand. When it was on SmackDown it briefly flashed blue, now that it's on Raw it briefly flashes red.

[@jacksonbassett1990]

Yeah and?

[@xthevortexknightx6356]

The Winged Eagle and NWA titles are some of my favorite title belts. I feel like WWE nowadays needs to take more inspiration from the past. Thats what I liked about the bull rope spot in HIAC this year, it harkoned back to the old days of wrestling, and in a day and age where some old stuff is still better, maybe WWE needs to dig through its back catalog to make some pretty stellar title designs.

[@FullSender420]

these boys are carrying this channel 😂

[@kingcarter8969]

2000s Intercontinental being B tier hurt my soul thoughts for sure A loved that belt with Jeff Hardy

[@Mr_Leo_DS]

Man, never seen someone hating the purple Cruiserweight title, I think it looks extremely unique, also the justification of "just the logo on the center" could easily apply to the spinner belt

[@RyanConnell5150]

8:53 my biggest problem besides the big logo on the WWE World Heavyweight Championship belt is when they dropped "World Heavyweight" from the name but kept it at the bottom of the belt. The whole point of it was that it merged the 2 belts Lesnar held last, into one belt. And since they removed the World Heavyweight from the name, the title match graphics that include a digital version of the belt have been inconsistent. Sometimes they black out the bottom of the belt. Sometimes they make it say "WWE Champion" sometimes they make it say "WWE World Champion" lately I've noticed them putting the original wording on it. The whole point of the original design was that the big WWE logo in the middle represents the "WWE" part of the title name, then the "World Heavyweight Champion" at the bottom represents that part of the name. So it would be "WWE WWE Champion" if they put WWE Champion at the bottom. Like how people will say "I'm the greatest in *the WWE* like they'd say *the WWF* back in the day, only back then it was a shortening of saying *the World Wrestling Federation* and today it would be *the World Wrestling Entertainment*

[@bloonsfamguy]

The positive about the new wwe titles is that if they are shown on a red carpet, an event or talk show people know where it's from unlike other wrestling companies

[@ryanmcneill7908]

This duo is undefeated

[@xGambit13]

You should do this again but with all belts from most/all major promotions and see how they stack up against each other.

[@RyanConnell5150]

10:48 RVD, Jericho, Orton, Kane, Triple H, Christian, Booker T, Edge, Ric Flair, Kofi, Punk, Mysterio, McIntyre, Ziggler, Wade Barrett all held that version of the belt.

[@Kswizzy15]

You guys should definitely do a theme/attire tier and a tier of wrestlers

[@koxifyrind]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaaliaV8m9-fZpY 3

[@monfe5532]

I haven't watched wrestling since 2011 or 2012 so I'm not familiar with a lot of these. I really like that nxt women's champion belt though. I'd probably put that in A tier. The silver makes it pop a lot more from the other one. Then I'd probably put the first nxt belt in C tier. It's not bad imo but it looks a little goofy and I don't like the 6 plates on the sides of the strap. Have 4 at most

[@christorres3374]

You should do a tier list on custom belts like the Rated R spinner, smoking skull, the fiend belt etc.

[@kyraa2581]

You guys should do a theme songs tier list!!

[@DugoutMugsOfficial]

Not a bad idea 👀

[@Mr.DontOverThinkIt]

I love watching this in the future where the IC title has become relevant and the World title has come back

[@sardalf2971]

The three I would have liked to have seen as well are the Winged Eagle, the WWF Heavyweight title before the Winged Eagle, and the WWF Tag Team titles (the ones held by the Hart Foundation and the British Bulldogs, among other teams).

[@jacob47329]

the nxt north american championship should’ve been ranked. unique, gorgeous, and HUGE.

[@Brandon-zk7sy]

The new wwe championship isn’t even that bad, it just gets over looked by all the clones

[@NBABasketballOperations]

The Undertaker with that World Heavyweight Title 🐐 Peak WWE

[@jacksonbassett1990]

Edge* but I feel ya

[@austinalvarez3124]

yo this was dope

[@aniketprasad3128]

The whole argument of logo in middle is kinda what wwe wanted. Given that they frequently gift that belt as promotion. Thus logo helps

[@DeathStorm6990]

Imo the only s belts are the big gold (world heavyweight) belt and the winged eagle belt (mid 90s, Hart, hbk Sid taker Austin)

[@zeospark9715]

Now I wonder what they would think of the new title? Sure it's still another one slapped with the WWE logo in the middle, but at least it's made much smaller where the gold overtakes it. It's like a reference to the big gold belt. I'd put it in B personally lol

[@tomunsworth2401]

watching it today with what is said at 12:50 .... lmao, they literally called it perfectly ahaha

[@Squidward_Tennisballs]

Is a PPV tier list a possibility? Based on era ofc, as pretty much prior to the PG era MOST of the PPVs stayed roughly the same in each era give or take a couple here and there.

[@zorth35]

Was there not an option for the winged eagle? That one is a close second behind big gold.

[@jordandavies1255]

The Spinner belt has to be S TIER, one of the best ever!

[@claytonjames1558]

I think you should do a superstar tier list. I think 95-05 would be a cool time. I know you weren't watching then so a 2000-2010 or 2010-current would be sick.

[@snikers4eto]

the list is almost perfect, it just needed the winged eagle belt on the S category

[@zazabean4397]

You should do a tier of which wrestler was the best version of themselves. For example: Triple H. (King of kings, Dx, or corporate).

[@RyanConnell5150]

14:28 they announced it ahead of time, obviously, to set up the match, but they didn't show it until right before the match. They should have revealed it after the match. Also the finish to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship match at WM 35 was spoiled for everyone at home when they showed the pedestal where Daniel Bryan was gonna have his Planet's Champion sit on during the match BEFORE the belt was set on the pedestal. You could clearly see there was a WWE Championship shaped object under the velvet cloth. THEN the Planet's Championship was put on top of that covered object. THEN the match happened. THEN New Day got rid of the Planet's Champion belt and lifted the cloth to reveal the previous version of the belt. They either shouldn't have shown the pedestal prior to Bryan's belt being put on it, or had the box Woods & E brought to the ring contain the previous version of the belt.

[@jasonalmeida8400]

This content is goated

[@maxwellgatuachi3274]

Good list it's perfect literraly

[@Briansgate]

holy crap, i actually agree with your ranking.

[@brennenhumphrey6300]

I had the intercontinental champ belt with the white strap and it was clean and the big gold world heavyweight championship

[@benjaminbrywczynski6308]

When I look at the "new" ECW belt I think of Kane. I think it's a shame he held it for such a small time. It fit his look so well

[@daxmoney5011]

They brought back big gold recently and I think it looks sick yeah it has the logo in the middle but it’s not as bad as the universal belt

[@skylacrakcnell9510]

Nice this was good

[@koxifyrind]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaaliaV8m9-fZpY 1

[@BoricuaBoy88]

Missing the WWE Undisputed title, the new US title, the Winged Eagle WWE title, the Light Heavyweight title, the attitude era tag team titles, and the WWE tag team titles from Smackdown.

[@houndofjustice5]

I miss so much titantrons enterance videos with music

[@legendkillz4020]

Do Wrestler tier list with past and present superstars/women from multiple companies or just WWE.

[@fernandomanriquez6485]

Upset you guys didn’t do the NXT NA or the UK both my fav belts right now!

[@koxifyrind]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaaliaV8m9-fZpY 3

[@thesamaffliction1572]

On appearance I almost entirely agree. The Divas’ title is such a stupid and disrespectful name, all to promote their reality show. But the World Tag Title and the mid 2000s intercontinental title are my favourites by far. Purely because the nostalgia of seeing Jeff hardy carry them both the day I met him in London

[@clicquotboyz9243]

Big Gold, Winged Eagle, the first Undisputed, Smoking Skulls and the new heavyweight title.. top 5 in that order..

[@christophermeyers]

The WCW heavyweight title and the winged eagle (92, Jack Tunney era) are the only ones deserving to be at the highest level. Cena spinner belt needs to be at the lowest level.

[@koxifyrind]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaaliaV8m9-fZpY 3

[@Dmararar6]

Nah the spinner isn’t that bad. I’d say b rank

[@juicepouch1]

Big Gold is goated. The dude holding Big Gold looks like the champ over any of the other world titles

[@spinking458]

1. Winged Eagle. 2. Big Gold (WCW) 3. Late 90's Rounded WWF Championship. And outside of the top belts, I always loved the Intercontinental Championship from the mid 2000's I don't really know why, I just do. I picture Christian & Jericho with that belt personally. Love it.

[@enom720]

Missing the NXT UK Belts, which today are the most beautiful in WWE

[@joshpotts8669]

Have you ever thought about doing your own wrestling theme mashups

[@Hanson511]

I thought I was the only one who had the same thought on the OG Cruiserweight championship. Although I have always been a big IC/US and tag team guy, the OG Cruiserweight belt is my fave for looks on the mid card level

[@koxifyrind]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaaliaV8m9-fZpY 3

[@RyanConnell5150]

14:02 When it was on Raw I called it the Unishittal Title. Now that it's on SmackDown I call it the Bluniversal Championship

[@royrivas836]

need more wrestling tier lists

[@stuffingtonjfluffypantsiii]

My two favorite non WWE Belts are the OG TNA X Division belt and the OG TNA Knockout's Championship

[@shutts67]

The old NXT tag belts are so cool. The symmetrical coloring, I love it

[@koxifyrind]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaaliaV8m9-fZpY 3

[@fultzy5696]

Yall could do one where they say the wrestlemania and say where the location or stadium was. Or the other way around

[@drewc8892]

Missing the Undisputed Championship. Super clean design. That one and the Big Gold are my all time favorite titles.

[@SinCitysOnly]

Tier List Idea: One Off Pay-Per-View Events

[@spencerlapointe3404]

You guys should do game where you have to name the members of a tag team or vice versa and name the tag team a superstar was part of

[@forrestsmith4426]

Wrestler's Old Theme Songs up next as a suggestion

[@RyanConnell5150]

12:35 fans expecting Big Gold to be brought back when the WWE Championship still has "World Heavyweight Champion" on the bottom set their expectations too high.

[@ricardoventura4211]

i agree with everything, i think! Maybe just put old nxt title in A but its ok, its just bacause i love the title

[@CmdrUD87]

12:22 and Taker. And Edge. SD had a real solid title scene around 2007-'08

[@RFrost734]

big gold - WCW heavyweight title.. the branding for it is on the top. the iconic white IC title is for sure S tier. the one that you guys said was the "old" tag titles early in the video is not the old one. if you look up the tag titles, the old one is the best tag title belt they have came up with.

[@s.m.a8182]

The IC white strap title is my favorite

[@Chris-cx5qk]

Missed one of the coolest belts made (skull belt) by austin

[@NatixLoudxBoi]

WWE did exactly what he said they would do. They brung back big gold and slapped a big W in the middle

[@BriggTheRig]

Could you tier list rumble winners or elimination chamber winners?

[@chriswilson9661]

I actually really like the new United States champion. Looked great on Bobby lashley

[@johnnyc0882]

With the Universal name they used the name that World Wrestling Council (based out of Puerto Rico) has used for their main championship for decades
