Really like these Tier lists, would like to see a Wrestlemania stage designs or just Wrestlemanias in general tier list
Wrestlemania stage design would be an awesome list
Norbert Ridgeback yes! Stage designs
Amazing idea
Wwe ppv stage design tier list sound epic
And the TV show stages? Smackdown fist is at least a high lovely lovely lovely
Please do one on Undertaker’s WrestleMania matches
yes
i’m pretty sure they made a ranked list tho
Kyle Major they did I remember watching it but if they talked about the matches again I wouldn’t mind
Pretty much every one before 2008 will be near the bottom though won't they?
They’ve done a worst to best list already.
Sam: "Women's titles back in the day were tiny because women were small and dainty. That is outdated thinking..."
AEW would like a word.
Now women are more like eggs
AEW’s women’s championship can get in the bin. Why does the men’s title look so much better than the women’s one?
The AEW women’s title is perhaps the worst belt I’ve ever seen.
Natsuki Bugger off with that bollocks.
To be fair, Riho is small and dainty, so it works for her
This is the best time I ever had watching a married couple just talk for 2 hours
They’re married?
@@wyattmack9071 Oh yeah they've been married since the AEW event in Las Vegas.
@@RentedGallows where are their rings then?
Oh my god they actually are married
I absolutely love the big stupid X on the old NXT belt. I dunno, I just love it.
That big goofy X gives me adrenaline 😭😭😭😭
DoctorLazers it’s like a good tacky
I kept mistaking it for the TNA X Division Championship.
Million dollar title can either be first or second tier considering not everyone can wear it but looks gorgeous
I grew up with Cena's title. Its one of my favorites and I will always defend it. I also loved the Big Gold Belt
Early to mid 2000s the "street racing" craze was red hot in video games and movies so it fit for the time. Looking back I can see why people think it's outdated. It's all just tastes though, I feel since these guys aren't from the U.S they instantly threw all the U.S belts in the bin unfairly. John Cenas US title was TRASH though, but they put the one before the john cena one in the bin and it was Alright. Not bad not good.
The Cena WWE Spinner isn’t one of the best not by a long shot but I genuinely don’t think it’s as bad as most people like to say it is
@@Vegeta68041 totally agree. These guys aren't going to ever understand the culture of the early 00's for the US.
Keith Weaver the Cena title is shit fight me on that
dude, same. i think it goes to show that you always love what you grew up with.
Hell, I have to disagree with the WWE Championship Spinner belt. I freaking love it, even if the spinner part was thrown in the bin like 2 years later, and the belt was mostly associated with Cena.
Did it look good on Cena?
Yes.
Did it look good on literally anyone else and look good as the literal World Title?
No.
@@guywhoateallthepizza1031 looked good on punk but thats about it
why?
When Ross said "hit the bloody intro" I just thought of the WTF intro. Lol
1:12:42 to anyone who wants to see the divas champion get put in the bin
It’s a product of its time
SevenFingerDiscount You can't apply today's standards on the diva's championship, I do rhink in 2015 it was time for it to go and I doubt that anyone was thinking it was regressive in 2008 considering "progressive" thinking wasn't really a thing until 2015
SevenFingerDiscount The Women's championship was worse, it was being defended in bra and panties matches and you are saying the diva's championship is gross
GET IN THE BIIIIIIIIIN
MR. FORD Me?
this one really hurt for me i totally get your points but ive always liked silver on titles just as much lmao
I do too.
I like silver on some titles. The original NXT women's title, Ric Flair's big gold from the 80's & the attitude tag titles are the only ones that come to mind for me.
@@atticus5106 i think the current nxt women's title, the womens tag and nxt cruiserweight title all got good looking silver
Silver accents on gold plates look really good (E.g. NXT Women's Championship). The NXT and NXT UK women's championships are, imo the best looking Women's championships going right now
TheGreenShyGuy I do too but the ecw silver championship is shit and I’ll say that until I die
They always say that your favorite wwe championship depends on which one was being used while you were watching as a kid. That’s why my favorite is the Cena one (preferably once they stopped it from spinning) and most people like either the winged eagle or the big eagle, and most kids today will like the big logo one.
I’d watched WWE before Cena debuted this title but not enough to really care. I didn’t even know it had replaced a belt I just thought it was new. And I HATED it as a kid I thought it was the stupidest thing that I’d ever seen.
You guys missed current Smackdown tag team championships, even if its just a recoloured strap.
They did both Universal Titles, so yeah they should have been in there too.
The SmackDown Tag Titles look better than the Raw ones in my opinion.
The Hessen shh shh shh shh it’s ok, it’s in the bin mate 😌
Josh Kaid innit
@@fletcherraymond4498 TBR?
55 mins - Look how big those sideplates are!
You could take one of them off and make an 80s womens title !
Sam’s love for the blue Universal title is like Tom’s love for Boa
I mean Brad Maddox’s seed being spilt on it probably doesn’t help a title’s prestige
Universal title deserves to go in the bin
So does the first NXT championship, my god that thing is hideous. It has 6 side plates with the WWE logo and a big X in the middle, it has no creativity.
Darker Blue >>>>>> Bright Red
Why does it have to be a red/blue copy of the WWE title? Same goes with both women's titles. Why can't these championships have their own identity?
polsdofer Also it always looked it dirty all the time
Tommy Dreamer's no. plate hardcore title was actually a European belt
The European is one of my favorite belts, and for it to be downgraded like that hurts me on the inside.
Gotta admit, I actually really like the US Title spinner belt. Though that might just be because it didn't overstay its welcome like the WWE Title spinner belt did, so it was only around for a few months at best. At least when Cena dropped the US Title to Orlando Jordan they brought the old belt back pretty much immediately.
@@ChristopherJames1993 I honestly completely forgot Miz had a "custom" title and now I'm just reminded that he stole the upside down WWE logo shtick from V.1 era Matt Hardy. lol.
Actually edge spent a week between shows drawing up a design for his custom title. He brought it to WWE and they told him they just made that little disc for the spinner.
34:00 LMFAO at the fact Sam thought Ross was hating on the entire country of Greece :'D
Rip van Winkle hey
@@nathanwhite1498 Aye
Oh, wait, those flat rectangular plates on the European title. That protruding WWF logo!
Yo, the Liscense plate Hardcore title is a literally recycled European championship belt!
I haven't watched the vid yet, but I'm going to guess the "Winged Eagle" belt will be in the top tier. The guys should of used pictures from pro wrestling wiki, they have way better pics then where used in the vid.
Also, fun fact:
The New York License Plate Hardcore Title was literally just a replica WWE European Title with the license plate on it. The change was made because the old WWF/E Hardcore Title was so damaged from years of wear-and-tear and ring usage.
It's funny how they keep saying that silver's shit, when every WCPW title except the tag titles were silver
Ronan Langford they had no hand in designing those belts, probably. They were basically indentured servants to *name redacted*
@@iamdavejohnson they were literally running the whole show. I doubt that they didn't design them.
@@TheJimys7 they were running the whole Show on camera. we don't know how much saying they had on anything. i think it is like a triple h, vince thing. cultaholic is triple h they decide and do things but in the end everything is going to vince(name redacted) and whatever vince says happens
We didn't design the titles. Only love RT xo
I understand, but any title that isn't the world title is just fighting for 2nd place.
Maybe it’s because it’s when I started watching but I actually really liked the spinner belt, not really so much when it spun but I just think it was a good design. Not great but not terrible, me personally I would’ve put it in alright.
right it’s really not that bad lol
I feel the same way, but I also feel like it worked depending on who was holding it. Like to me looked the best when Cena or Edge was holding it, but if it was Orton or Triple H it just seemed awkward to me
I like it. I know I shouldn't... but OTT bollocks like that every once-in-a-while works for me.
Just about bearable for me
I respect your opinion but no. That belt was hideous and only worked with Cena
Cultaholic: we made a new tier list video
Me: That's... Good... SHIITTT
@@heldert DON'T QUESTION THE BOSS, or I'll put you in a jobber team with Dolph Ziggler!
Are you the Vince McMahon puppet?
Personally I absolutely loved the spinner belts with WWE being one of my all time favourites but that could be cause I grew up with it and John Cena is my favourite wrestler
Brandon TEX9 Dont worry, there’s ones here that are only high cause these guys are nostalgic
I know what you mean, I feel like a lot of people including myself like the spinner belts because it was the first version of the wwe title that a lot of us were introduced to
Caden L it was my introduction as well, i still hated it. looked too much like a kids toy
*see's vid title* oh cool! this'll be interesting
*see's length of vid* oh.... you literally meant ALL OF THE TITLES!!!
Idk how you put the universal above the spinner smh
Maybe it's just because I grew up with it, but I loved the spinning belt. I was surprised when I found out how many people hated it
If no other title looked like the universal championship, I'd probably like it. It's just too much for me.
I grew up with the spinner belt and it physically pained me to see that monstrosity. I HATED the spinner belt. The only person it looked decent on was Cena. It doesn’t look like a championship it’s not glamorous nor dignified (I know it’s WWE but still have some dignity) it just looked moronic.
It's because the Universal title is a lazy rehash, but The Spinner is utter garbage of a belt.
The NXT UK championship belt is beautiful
It's always good to see a married couple collaboration ❤
Why does Sam keep bringing up lineage in a "Design" discussion.
Thanks.
“That’s just a big X, don’t like it” Sam says as he’s sat two and a half feet away from a big C belt lmao
And then he defends the current wwe championship and universal championships. Which are both just big Ws
I can’t lie John Cenas spinner is a top 10 belt for me I just love it.
Exactly thx for saying this because I thought I was the only one who loved this belt😅
Spinner belt looks far more interesting than most of the other belts.
But it just doesn't fit as a world title, it just fits cena and his rapper gimmick but everyone else looks like they're holding a toy
@@heyiamnick4144 yeah I would have had it quite low but I don't know about it being in the bin, considering it was something different, same with the Cena U.S title. If they put the mahogany puke fest of a belt in top tier then Cenas belts at least deserve to be a spot higher.
Silver ECW Title was nice looking. One of my favorites actually.
I wore my replica WWE championship to my sisters wedding.
It was on Halloween and she told everyone to wear a costume so I came as Kevin Owens.
Now that sounds like my kinda wedding
The big gold belt should be at the top of “the best” category not at the bottom my good sir’s.
Big Gold is my all time favorite, it just looks so good around certain guys. I’m actually a fan of the current WWE Championship and The Winged Eagle/ Attitude Era belt
The Big Gold looked great on every person who held it. Triple H all the way to Randy Orton, man.
The Big Gold Belt was, in a word, sublime.
Best tier list yet! I havent laughed this much in ages. Ross and Sam debating together is just the funniest.
Long live the tier list.
I enjoyed the visceral reaction Sam had to the spinner belt.
I feel like the IC title was changed due to the fact that we now associate white straps with women's championships. There was nothing wrong with it, but definitely something I can see McMahon having a pet peeve over
"were gonna go on aesthetic alone"
puts the uk womens and uk mens in alright and the best even though theyre essentially the same belt
it might be a reskin but its a reskin of the best title in wwe today
should AT LEAST be lovely, if not right below the mens in the best
The Spinner Belt wasn't that bad. Get over it.
The US one sucked though. I'll give you that.
It was utter fucking dog shit
Josh Kaid exactly
46:04 that belt is just gorgeous. The Undisputed Championship was great and it looked great on Triple H, Brock Lesnar and the Undertaker
The UD belt looked great on anyway, really. Pisses me off that Cena’s custom belt became the baseline championship after he won it.
I'd love to see a list for Hardcore Champions. I can only imagine how much of a cluster that would be!
40+ personnes in the bin
I actually really like the spinner belt it looked good with cena, edge, orton, hhh
I only thought it looked right with Cena since it was 'his' belt, Edge's variation was okay but the inside design didn't really fit with the outside
It looked good with Cena and Orton, I'll give ya that. And Edge's design for the belt was top. They should've done stuff like that more often like when the Miz won it.
But it looked uber gaudy on Triple H. Though maybe that's because I can only imagine the World Heavyweight Belt around his waist.
Not only do I have the Attitude Era belt, it's signed by half of the men who held it - The Undertaker, Kurt Angle, The Big Show, Mankind and Chris Jericho.
Would love to see a WWE PPV tier list, so grouping all of the same PPVs and pairing them against the others
Just know boys, the cultaholic belt looks like the 24/7 belt ...
I think the US spinner would’ve been cool if it didn’t say “word life” on it. I always liked it as a kid.
47:41 - John Cena's WWE Spinner Belt
55:06 - ^Fixed Center Plate Version
1:01:31 - John Cena's US Spinner Belt
1:11:32 - Edge's Rated-R Spinner Belt
1:22:18 - The Fiend's Universal Belt
This is the first Tier episode I watched because this is a great topic. This was a ton of fun!!
When I seen the new Intercontinental title, I thought that’d make a great Universal title at Summerslam 2016 instead of the strawberry jam piece of crap
I would Love to see you guys do a Tier list on non WWE Belts like IWGP,AAA,IMPACT,ROH and CMLL
the cruiserweight title is still purple, it is just extremely dark, i noticed when Devlin won the title, you catch it in certain lighting and you can see the slight tint of purple but it is a really nice effect
(Any belt has the tiniest bit of red on it.)
Sam and Ross: THE BEST!!!!!!!!
Have to say when I was a kid I had an Intercontinental Championship replica and I took that everywhere with me lol
I dont get the hate for silver. Yeah in sport it means 2nd place, but silver is so much better looking than gold in my opinion. And how it looks is the main criteria according to you.
I loved the "old" IWGP Heavyweight Championship belt, when it looked more like silver. Now in its restored and polished gold form it just looks way worse.
I usually like these tier lists but this list needs to get in the bin.
The 24/7 Championship is basically the belt design equivalent of the Mendoza Line.
Bonus points to any Brit that knows what I'm talking about without googling it.
The Winged Eagle Championship was my first Championship I ever purchased; I love it with all my heart; it was the Belt held by HBK, Bret Hart, Undertaker.
It’s so classic and timeless.
The last WWF title before the undisputed title and triple Hs’ WHC are the best looking imo
I've seen paige use that belt in a very naughty way
Haven't we all?
LOL A WOMAN DID THE SEX GUYS LOL WHOA
I've always wanted the big gold belt. Maybe with my tax return. ;)
Check out Fandu's big gold!
Yeah... I hoped they'd bring it back, instead of the Universal title
Tier lists are my favorite Cultaholic videos
Undisputed is the best they've ever had for me; considering they replaced the attitude eagle and big gold, and it's still looked back on so fondly, that shows just how bloody good it is
I've just realised looking at these:
The NXT North American title should be the WWE US title
The WWE Intercontinental title should be the NXT Secondary title
The old Cody Intercontinental title should just come back
I don't really care about this particular tier list, I'm just here because I love the banter from all the lads here at Cultaholic :D
I know this might be a tall order but I would like to see a tier list of the major pro wrestling promotions as of today.
Did they miss the new smackdown tag titles? Or am I just blind?
"whys it so small"
"different time wasn't it"
AEW womens title glances awkwardly....
The raw women's title is imo the most slept on title in a long time. That on Ronda Rousey was beautiful, with her red and black attire
Where was the Million Dollar Championship :(
I didn't expect this video to be that long especially when it's every single title
I'd love to see some tier lists that aren't company specific. You could do a tier list of belts from all major companies
Haven't watched yet, but undisputed title, big gold belt and winged eagle must be in the best *at bare minimum*
This was great! But I feel the Big Gold Belt needed a bit more love!
When I was a kid I thought the spinner belt was the COOLEST shit lmao.
Like nostalgia makes me think jts lovely lmao.
I’d love to see a tier list of wrestling managers
My favorite was the 02-03 era Undisputed Title. It looked so regal and illustrious, definitely championship material.
Do they provide public links to their versions of the TierMaker pages?
I think Spinner belt is like top 5 but ONLY if Cena is holding it. Always loved custom designs, wish they did them WAY more often. Daniel Brian's was cool as well.
You put my favorite in the best category so I have no complaints
Can we just take a minute to appreciate the spinner title. I hate the later iterations of it shafting it of the side plate with the either Smackdown Fist or Raw Locket in place of having the champion sideplate on both sides. Then you have the crowned eagle above the spinner instead of it being under the globe, it's been placed prominently above the circular WWE logo. Then you have the gems and stones that might have been influenced by the Undisputed title. It's like it borrows bits and pieces of the previous titles and they all come together with the title's own unique aspects to be a very unique and beautiful title....On Cena....until it stopped spinning....then it just looked awkward....
y’all slept on the old raw tag team tittles. my favorite tag team championships ever and they looked amazing on rated rko and the hardy’s
I never noticed the 24 7 title side plates. I cant believe they didnt put anything on them.
they have the little marks on the corners but that's it
@@derek-64 yea might as well be nothing lol. That's just lazy
@@snegsbegs their choices of designs for championship belts has been very hit or miss over the past few years. hardly a belt in the company that looks decent.
Another great tier list guys! Maybe a few too many Intercontinental Championship variants though haha
Whichever titles you grew up seeing are the ones you’re gonna like.....other than white strap intercontinental that’s just pure beauty right there!
I miss the 2010-2016 Copper Tag Team Titles At least they looked good on the Tag Team rather than having Red and Blue Straps it looks ridiculous
Nah the 2000s tag belts were my favorites. I appreciated how the Raw and SmackDown belts looked completely different from one another.
Naomi had that custom belt that had lights. I loved that thing.
The theory is the belt of Tommy Dreamers hardcore title is a version of the European belt
Also having reached the end one of the biggest omissions of the list is the Hogan World title from like 86-87. One of the more iconic titles.
I’m honestly shocked they left out the 86 and 87 WWF championship. That it is sheer neglect .
When you take your belts to shows and need to pee, you put it around your neck like John Cena
just bought the 2002 smackdown belts absolutely love them
Logo tier lists for raw/smackdown/wrestlemania would be fun
Edge said on the E&C Pod of Awesomeness he designed himself a title he really liked and then got handed the R Spinner and fucking hated it
47:42
Not gonna lie, I'm surprised this ended up in the bin. I get why, like when you say it, it makes perfect sense, but at the same time, it just looked heavy and semi-elegant with all the details. It was a perfect alt to the World Heavyweight Championship at the time and it just stood out. I would've put it in "alright", but I guess that's just me lmao.
Arcien that belt sucked!! I agree with them 💯
@@MrWicked17 and that's fine, I semi-agree too, I just think binning it was harsh, seeing how it was a perfect alt to the WHC, specially now that we're in a time, where all belts more or less look alike.
Don’t care what anyone says, the John Cena WWE Spinner Belt is one of my all time favorite belt designs, I grew up with it and I loved everything about it and I still love it lol
