A look at re designed AEW Title, more details
Added 2023-12-31 20:04:16 +0000 UTC
A new era in All Elite Wrestling is underway, and could see some changes.
One of the big changes we’ve heard that could be on the horizon is the creation of a new or altered AEW World Championship. We haven’t heard if the title will be a new design, but there have been steps taken to make some alterations to it.
Recently and unfortunately Clemson defeated Kentucky in the AEW TaxSlayer bowl and Tony Khan presented Clemson with a customized world title with Clemson side plates. We’re told that there are at the very least side plate options for the upcoming version of the championship. AEW also had plates produced for Kentucky had they won the game, as highlighted in the social media post of the title belt.
The version we've seen also features a black background behind the AEW logo.
Fightful was able to get a look at the title, which you can see here.
They definitely need more AEW logos on it...

please, no side plates. i don't like them in wwe and won't like them in aew. it makes the belt feel gimmicky. aew shouldn't mess too much with their world title belt. it is one of the prettiest i've ever seen

You better believe I’m going to try to get a picture holding that belt the next time I’m in the Clemson football facility

I personally do not like side plates.

I also would prefer without the replaceable side plates but I can learn to live with them I guess.

Hopefully the custom one they gave to Clemson is an indication that they decided against the black backing for the logo. I hate the way that looks. It lookes tacked on like an afterthought. The original looks cohesive.

The logo sticks out in a bad way. It needs to be more integrated into the design of the face rather than looking like they just stuck it on after the fact.

Not a fan. Looks like gorilla tape slapped over the middle.

The original belt was one of the most beautiful belts in wrestling history. This black logo looks like a glue patch from ProWrestlingTees

I'm glad they kept it looking the same. The AEW World Title is one of my favorites. Just get rid of the burnt mustard looking strap.

Side plates are cool, but the rest... nah. That distinct black background for the logo diminished the prestigious look. It's sad, because aew's belt was second to none, ecer since the iwgp title changed.

I love custom side plates. I think it's legitimately cool and loved when WWE did it. I do not like the black logo in the middle. Looks like they taped the logo on the belt rather than it looking like it's built for them. If we have the original center and new side plates, you have a legitimate upgrade to the best looking world title in wrestling

I dislike the black behind the AEW name, looked classier with the all gold front. No need to go the WWE route and make the championship a giant logo.

That black blocky logo kinda pasted onto the middle plate is ugly

Why can’t they just bring back the big gold one they have. I think this is a big downgrade

I like the original better!

They don’t need to go the direction WWE went with the side plates they should try to be an alternative

Yeah not a fan of them using the black logo in the middle of the plate

So they've somehow made a gorgeous title even prettier.
