Hi Matt! Another superb belt review, the Winged Eagle you have looks the business and very accurate. I would say it beats the official replica hands down but then again, a lot of the independent beltmakers versions of the classic WWF belts are much better than the WWE Shop versions. Definitely find it jarring to see a Winged or Big Eagle with the WWE logo as to me, they are and always have been WWF belts in my mind Thanks so much and I look forward to seeing more belt reviews in the near future Best Wishes Chris
I just purchased a WWE Custom belt from him with two different side plates & a winged eagle. Spent quite a bit on them getting the best of the best stuff so we will see how they turn out.
I have a version of this belt that was made in Pakistan. I don’t remember the name of the person who made it, but it is so far from any stretch of TV accuracy. I wish that I could post a picture of it just so everyone can see what I am about to type. This is going to be quite lengthy, but I will do as much condensing while still being as detailed as possible. For starters the leather is not real at all. It looks kind of like pleather almost. Between the layers of that is something that feels like cotton, in which all of the bolts for the plates are concealed into. There is almost an inch of leather between the edge of said leather, and the plates, the wings on the center plate don’t even go past it, and the leather is finished off with the fancy looking tooling around the edges. All of the plates are one millimeter thick, the side bars on the center plate are welded on the very noticeably terribly, and are formed in such a way that they look like they were slightly twisted in their formation. The belt tip is only on the front of the belt. And to finish it off: the plates(belt tip included are secured to the leather material with a layer of plastic between them. Had I known that the belt would arrive like this, I would have taken my business elsewhere. Even the pictures of the belt were misleading because the belt in the pictures on the website looked very close to TV accurate. I want to send it to someone who does belt review videos but that currently isn’t possible for me to do right now. So it will continue to sit in the bottom of my closet until that does become possible.
From Pakistan. It depends on whether it's in stock or whether it has to be made. In stock belts take about 4-5 days. Otherwise, it could be a few months.
the real reggie parks belt costs $2,100. $1000 of that is actually to use the WWF logo as that is what Vince charges Midwest for the rights. But yeah, this was a decent belt
@@kldbv982 Wasn't aware about the logo deal ending but I was aware that midwest do have a 10-year wait. Hazardf5 ordered the oval IC from Dave and had to wait 5 years before he got it. It infuriates so many people so much, I've seen people that usually hate bootlegs actively encourage people to boot Midwest belts as a result because of the long wait times. Plus if you're a bigger company, you can pay a "VIP Charge" and basically get your belt done quicker at the front of the line. Dave needs to fix his website about the logo though. He still advertises that he can use it but with the $1,000 added to the bill.
@@ImLonelyLinda he told me the same thing and I’ve been waiting on a winged eagle and custom wwe belt on American leather for 9 months… I ordered back in December.
@@ChiTownBearCub2387 If you would've ordered the winged eagle on its own you would've received it by now. I'm presuming you contact him on a regular basis asking for updates?
@@ImLonelyLinda yes, he finally just whipped the winged eagle and within 1 day it says “returned to sender”. It’s been an absolute nightmare experience.
That's an amazing made belt. Fclub's work is up there with ORM and C.S. in terms of T.V. accuracy but for a way cheaper price. I'm probably gonna save up money to get a Scratch logo Big eagle either from Fclubvk or Fight nite belts, another good Pakistan based belt maker that charges a reasonable price as well. There's also a guy named Nawaz who makes phenomenal belts, but is dealing with a virus at the moment. Not dissing ORM or Classic shields, but their prices are far too high for "bootlegs." Oh, and I've heard not so great things about their customer service.
Nawaz makes some fantastic stuff. I got a V1 undisputed from him and was blown away by the etching and leather. He has just finished a winged Eagle for me so I should have that soon
Not everyone wants to buy bootleg belts from shady sellers. I could honestly careless about the WWE shop belts having WWE instead of WWF. It doesn't bother me one bit
Joe, you’re a huge mark for a middleman for a Pakistani belt bootlegger. There are better people to choose for idols. Smarten up, kid. Mian belts are below average at best. Their middleman is a joke. FACTS.
Joe Vitanza , I’m someone who doesn’t worship con men. We know who you are. You’re a shill who buys whatever the con men feed you. Keep giving all your money to them though. Real smart. 😂😂😂😂
The Winged Eagle looks so classy
The bars sticking out is actually accurate. It looked that way on tv when held like that. The official looks like trash in comparison.
That's what I was thinking, the bars were not attached in many old videos
Thank you for the very detailed, informed review, well done!

Thanks for feedback. Great Review!
Thank you for the great belt. Looking forward to working with you again.
I purchased a belt based on this review! Thanks. Can't wait to get my belt.
How much for the Winged Eagle?
@@LTMM_ $400
@@fcvkchampionshipbeltsrevie6741 Seeing this video,makes me
Wish I had $400 to buy it😭
I purchased a Pakistan belt and was pretty happy with how it looks, I wanted my belt to have the old school WWF logo

Hey, is this considered a real belt? Its hand crafted so, It's more legit then a replica?

What's the biggest widest size they come in?
That’s a quality belt. Austin has the real one in his vault
Could you type in the link to the eBay store. Thx
How long did it take for the belt to come in?? Where did it ship from??? Thanks!!!
From Pakistan.
It depends on whether it's in stock or whether it has to be made.
In stock belts take about 4-5 days.
Otherwise, it could be a few months.
Is this for sale?

Fair point.
Can’t use the WWF logo anymore. License deal ran out a couple of years ago. It’s WWE or nothing if ordering from Midwest. And about a 10 year wait...

@SJW'S Ruin Everything! yes, the NWA charges $250 I believe.
Which one do you recommend
The bootleg.
I bought one today. I hope to be as pleased as you are.
COVID lockdowns are causing big delays at the moment.
@@PomeloRetro I told him I need it by xmas. He told me that he will send it by dec 1st...
Do you now where these are manufactured?
I've just ordered one myself and see that he lives in the US, did you have to pay import duty?
It may say US, but it’s definitely Pakistan. I've been waiting on another for quite a long time - lockdown has had a big impact on timescales.
@@PomeloRetro He said it will be a 30 to 40 day wait but I'm expecting it to be longer. Thanks for the response pal, great review 👍

I know right

I'm looking at an FClub belt soon. I've got a custom belt from Fight Nite and Sami's work is legit.
Can you give me the ebay link ?
Pomelo Retro how much is the bootleg belt and where did it come from nice video and very informative
There's a link on the description:)
@@PomeloRetro thanks are the belts from Pakistan
Is this the Brass or Zinc Fclub offering?
Zinc
IS this one 4MM plates?
Steve Bragg Yes, they both are.
I made my own hardcore belt. Are you in any of the Facebook belt forums?
Yes, Brothers of the Belt, Championship Belt Brothers and EHOWB
Wwe killed it on the Eddie signature Undisputed Championship.
Good video
Your a chanpion man.
Could you send me his ebay store link please?
You are the New Hazard f5!! Lol
Ha! I take that as a great compliment.
No disrespect.. Hazard is still the best!!!
@@villaej I would agree.
Nah Hazard is too much of a 'real' belt snob to even consider buying a boot 😉
Dual plated is the only way to go
stunning belt beats the wwe official replica hands down.
Not everyone wants to buy bootleg belts from shady sellers.
I could honestly careless about the WWE shop belts having WWE instead of WWF. It doesn't bother me one bit
LoL the official merch looks more bootleg than the bootleg
I dint think his name is "wack-ass nazeer" its probably "Wa-qass"
Saying that the Mian Belts Winged eagle is not as high quality as the one you got is laughable
I can only go off what I've seen. I'm looking forward to the new version of Mian's Winged Eagle.
Joe, you’re a huge mark for a middleman for a Pakistani belt bootlegger. There are better people to choose for idols. Smarten up, kid. Mian belts are below average at best. Their middleman is a joke. FACTS.
Who are you again thats right nobody 🤣
Joe Vitanza , I’m someone who doesn’t worship con men. We know who you are. You’re a shill who buys whatever the con men feed you. Keep giving all your money to them though. Real smart. 😂😂😂😂
Look at this a little bitch talking tough I dont have time for your little comments you dont matter to me your a nobody to me.
I wouldn’t pay 200 bux for the wwe version my god it looks like a dollar store item. I’d definitely rather have the boot leg.
The retail price of the Hogan version is $500.
