I'd love to see more terrible belt reviews. In the words of OSW Review, "State of your belt, mate!" That outer side plate looks like two ghosts trying to wrestle each other.
I'm laughing so hard watching this at work and my coworkers are looking at me like what the hell is he laughing at. This made my day and also hurts me in so many ways being a fan of belts.
A few months back on one of the facebook belt groups, one guy bought a winged eagle boot similar to this and believed he bought the best thing ever made. He said that the maker "hit it out of the ballpark". To each their own I guess
@james Nas MURDERERS DO NOT REST AND DESERVE NO PEACE! FUCK WRESTLING AND THINK ABOUT REAL PEOPLES TRAGEDY. FUCK ANY PERSON WHO COULD MURDER HIS FAMILY BENOIT OJ SIMPSON FUCK THEM!
Thank you for this informative video. I just ordered and received my bootleg wwf tag team belt and was worried that I bought one of poor quality being a belt novice. I followed your description step by step and Thankfully mine checked out as a good quality bootleg! Now I'll know what to look for in the future. Thank you so much!
That replica belt was the worst I think I’ve seen featured on your channel Paul mate, I actually noticed the foam looking backing before you mentioned it, though the Fandu one looked pretty decent You absolutely have to buy one of those and have a look at what is inside them.
You don't have to apologise for the video being too long Paul, this video is hilarious. This video reminded me of Hazardf5's infamous Pakistan Belt Rant. I've been watching your videos now since 2011 and this is one of the best and funniest videos you've ever put up. I also was never a fan of the classic Reggie Tag belt, I much preferred the J-Mar Attitude version, but the actual Fandu of the classic Reggie Tag makes me like it.
Paul thank you so much for bringing this to my attention I have seen these belts on eBay for so long and I have seriously wondered what is the deal with these overseas belts I have turned in several of these marketed belts and eBay and they've actually shut their accounts down and I will continue to turn them in thank you once again Paul for exposing these horrendous wannabe fake belts
Well, I am officially terrified. I just purchased 2 of the exact same tag titles for my best friend and myself. He's got good reviews but now I am very...VERY worried.
I had a bootleg Jeff Hardy TNA Immortal Belt and the foam is to make some space for the nuts and bolts, cause they're so tall it would pretty much puncture the backing
Great video, had a few good laughs too. Thanks for doing this type of video cause it’s needed so people know what to look out for. Do more of these videos plus if you can, so people will know what to look out for, the name of the pages on eBay (if you can) or described with details of what to look out for what you did about the briefcase
dude this is hilarious!!! your reactions sold me to buy this and just see it in person... hahahahhha... couldn't stop laughing from the moment you opened the case until the end...
Hey Paul just wanting to mention incase someone hasn'tthe fandu big golds early on and some early alternate colors have a much much better fake leather strap than compared to what they have now. I have a Andre 87 from them and the type of leather between my andre 87 and big gold is night and day difference. I think the leather changed when they started to offer straps with different backings. The big gold you reviewed is a completely different material then my big nickel.
I buy most of, like 90% of mine from eBay, mainly because one off eBay is generally around $200 AUD, whereas ones off the actual sites cost me upwards of $500AUD, general much more because of shipping, but despite how crappy the quality and obviously up close bad look to them, they still look great for display and unless ones from WWE Shop are down to like, as cheap as eBay, I'll most definitely still buy from eBay and save the actual stores for times I can really spend weeks saving up for them
There's a belt on eBay I'm skeptical of. It's the NWA Classic Championship. This was worn by Buddy Rogers, Gene Kiniski, Dory Funk Jr., and Harley Race before they changed it to the one we have seen Flair wear. I wonder how lousy it is as they want $165 + $25 for S&H. Is it worth it or is it a flop?!
I’ve been on a belt kick this past week and I think it’d be pretty damn awesome if you bought one of these belts and did a video of you taking it apart 💯
The only problem with the Fandu belts is that they make the plates small cause look how much bigger the bootleg main plate is compared to fandu. That's like the main complaint from people buying the big gold belt from fandu.
I bought two belts in these production styles. One is ok and I've done work to it. The other got sent back. For what it is, and if you're skint- then it's ok as a placeholder.
Would love to see you review one of the Jacks Pacific WWE replica belts from Toys R Us (Now can be found in target) //compare it to a higher quality version. I’d love to hear your opinions on it
How much does that thing cost? it looks like something a kid would have gotten back in the 90's a toy. I'm guessing it actually cost a lot more than what a toy would have cost though...
Brilliant Paul as usual. I had two Pakistani bootlegs and one was better that the other and they were both better than that by miles. It just depends on the maker I think! Question though, how come Steve Carrell turned up mid way through on Paul heymans face lol, I thought I was going crazy until I took it back?? Little hidden gem, whole video super funny and you should absolutely do more of these.
I have a winged eagle a lot like this. it was cheap and I bought it full knowing what it was, so I'm not upset at it. I'm happy to send it to you to tear apart
I know it's absolute shite but believe me, this would have been awesome to have back in high school during the 90s... (we had cardboard belts with craft paper and glitter for God sake...)
I've had a few boot makers on Instagram dm ask me to teach them how to do leather work and or do it for them I always decline I feel your pain man on the plates and the leather work itself that backing reminds me of a pillow lol
Him: "Critiqes some pretty small things"
My broke ass: *"ill take twenty"*
This reminded me of Chef Gordon Ramsay talking about shitty food
Ikr
I'd love to see more terrible belt reviews. In the words of OSW Review, "State of your belt, mate!"
That outer side plate looks like two ghosts trying to wrestle each other.
RC99 Productions it looks more like one of them is getting raped
Lol!
I can hear V1 saying that. I wish that OSW would do a badly made replica belts stream. They would have a ball.
I'm laughing so hard watching this at work and my coworkers are looking at me like what the hell is he laughing at. This made my day and also hurts me in so many ways being a fan of belts.
PLEASE make more videos like this! They could be very informative for those looking for replicas (particularly ones at a reasonable price.)
A few months back on one of the facebook belt groups, one guy bought a winged eagle boot similar to this and believed he bought the best thing ever made. He said that the maker "hit it out of the ballpark". To each their own I guess
It looks like two ghost wrestling
These have been on eBay for years. They are terrible thank you Paul for exposing them
God, please review more horrible bootlegs, this was amazing.
Picture of Eddie and Chris behind him is amazing, RIP both legends
Rip eddie fuck benoit
@james Nas so u glorify a man who murdered his wife and child cuz he wrestled good??? Get ur priorities straight mark
james Nas bruh you are really defending a killer smh
@james Nas MURDERERS DO NOT REST AND DESERVE NO PEACE! FUCK WRESTLING AND THINK ABOUT REAL PEOPLES TRAGEDY. FUCK ANY PERSON WHO COULD MURDER HIS FAMILY BENOIT OJ SIMPSON FUCK THEM!
Nah, screw Benoit.
Lmao the cartoon ghost wrestling on side plate 😂
3:13 "That's what she said" - Michael Scott
"the (Fandu) straps are really poor, which I'm ok with, just send them to me to re-leather" haha, classic!

This has been your most entertaining video xD
Please do more terrible belt reviews and tear downs!

The Back of the Belt reminds me of those Padded Mats you used to sleep on as a little kid at Nap-Time in Pre-K!
Its as thick as the mats that WWE used back in the day
@@aztecwrrior1997 yeah those too i was going to mention them aswell!
It does remind of school lol
Those "wrestler" plates look like Casper ghosts. 👻 The Tag Team Wrestling Champions lettering gave it away as a fake. The lettering is to plain text.
I cant lie man, the guy in a headlock plate makes this belt seem like a good addition to my collection just for the comic relief
I always see those on ebay. I'm happy I never bought one 🤣
They are good for wall decorations. Nothing more
You never saw when Gumby & Pokey won the tagteam titles against the Blockheads?? 🤣
This is the greatest video in TH-cam history please do more of these 😂😂😂
I legit LOL's when you pointed out the gumby side plates! I kinda want my own now haha!
Just out of genuine curiosity, would you re leather a decent bootleg?
Great video, had a few good laughs too. Thanks for doing this type of video cause it’s needed so people know what to look out for. Do more of these videos plus if you can, so people will know what to look out for, the name of the pages on eBay (if you can) or described with details of what to look out for what you did about the briefcase
By far your best video yet 😂😂😂 please do more like this when you can 😂😂
Looks like Gumby spooning some other guy on the side plate
Sideplates made my day!!
That side plate was hilarious lmao. Gumby wtf was that
I want this belt! The padding on the back is more comfortable and I’d only be wearing it to live events...
youll get cooked for taking this belt Lmfao
I've releathered one of those belts with the padding on the back 😂
I would love to see more videos on bootlegs its hard to find good ones
He's going so overboard with putting the belt down that it's backfiring to where now this attrocious belt is now "over." Now, I want one too.
Damn I was hoping you'd pull a Madusa on Nitro with it
The back padding has a hole in the center 😂
Can you tell me where to find this please and what to search to find it
One of the best videos behind your vid of my custom Taker belt. Deffo 1 of the funniest too 🤣🤣
dude this is hilarious!!! your reactions sold me to buy this and just see it in person... hahahahhha... couldn't stop laughing from the moment you opened the case until the end...
Omg that belt is hilarious, I think its only a baby belt tho as the back of the strap looks like it's filled with nappy padding, hahahahaha.
That side plate chronicles the Gumby vs. Meeseeks feud.
Derek Messimer I audibly laughed when I read this 😂👏🏻 bravo
4:55 THAT'S MR MESEEKS!
I was looking at this belt on eBay. Good thing I came across this video. Thank you!
"I paid a quarter of the price and expected HIGH QUALITY! "
I mean I did explain in the video I didn’t pay anything for this belt...
Anyone else notice that at 7:39 the Heyman pic in the background turns into Michael Scott? lol
Hahaha. You're right! 😂
That backing looks like the belt is actually a giant whoopie cushion 😂
Hey Paul just wanting to mention incase someone hasn'tthe fandu big golds early on and some early alternate colors have a much much better fake leather strap than compared to what they have now. I have a Andre 87 from them and the type of leather between my andre 87 and big gold is night and day difference. I think the leather changed when they started to offer straps with different backings. The big gold you reviewed is a completely different material then my big nickel.
You were funny as hell in this video. If this is your reaction to bad belts;make more.
Those side plates.... hahahaha
I buy most of, like 90% of mine from eBay, mainly because one off eBay is generally around $200 AUD, whereas ones off the actual sites cost me upwards of $500AUD, general much more because of shipping, but despite how crappy the quality and obviously up close bad look to them, they still look great for display and unless ones from WWE Shop are down to like, as cheap as eBay, I'll most definitely still buy from eBay and save the actual stores for times I can really spend weeks saving up for them
One of my favourite youtube videos ever.
I just bought a belt from Pakistan 1986 Hulk Hogan replica WWF belt I hope it's not that bad I will post a video when I get it
Legend has it he's still trying to figure out the belt 😂😂
These were a great alternative to decorate my sports bar. You can hang em on a corner and not break your bank account 😂
Use it for backyard wrestling, bring back the underground wrestling circuit
There's a belt on eBay I'm skeptical of. It's the NWA Classic Championship.

These videos are great. Real learning experience. Thanks for doing these.
I’ve been on a belt kick this past week and I think it’d be pretty damn awesome if you bought one of these belts and did a video of you taking it apart 💯
Did you ever find out whatvin the back of the strap?
The only problem with the Fandu belts is that they make the plates small cause look how much bigger the bootleg main plate is compared to fandu. That's like the main complaint from people buying the big gold belt from fandu.
love the pillow backing. nice and soft on the belly.
NOOOO!!!! THE WINGED EAGLE!!
You’re reaction to this crap belt is priceless lmao
The reason the back is that way is to cover the long bolts that are on the back of the main plate.
Paul Martin is the Gordon Ramsay version of wrestling belts
It’s like a low budget horror film that’s so bad, it’s actually good!
So what do I search for on ebay for the good belts. And how spot the bad ones?
Does it matter it's fake? The people who buy it happily watch fake, fixed "sport entertainment"
Oh ok then 😂
What maker was this from so I won’t order
id buy that. its better than my $15 amazon toy belt.
I would love to see the owner of that belt reaction to this video... LOL
How much does a re-leather job cost? I just ordered a Fandu Big Gold Luxe duel plated and would like to have a nice leather strap for it.
I need some help because I'm looking for a WCW TBS Television title but only see them on EBay....
Bro ... i seen a universe belt , the plates were sheet metal with plastic stones ... with the padding on back
Hey Paul, question about the Fandu's. Is it me, or, are they smaller than most?
My two tag belts might be just as bad as that faulty one. How much is it to re-leather two WWF tag belts to a better/stronger/properly sized leather?
I bought two belts in these production styles. One is ok and I've done work to it. The other got sent back. For what it is, and if you're skint- then it's ok as a placeholder.
These are $100 belts, the seller obv was trying to scam by saying its Fandu. However you can't knock it for it's purpose of being a cheap belt.
9:27 TOOK you long enough to notice the wings 😂... I noticed that when you was showing how bad the leather was cut around the plate 😝
Took him long enough to even describe the belt, click bait, did not enjoy this video
Would love to see you review one of the Jacks Pacific WWE replica belts from Toys R Us (Now can be found in target) //compare it to a higher quality version. I’d love to hear your opinions on it
When you showed the side plates I cackled
What's the ebay seller name?
I don't know Gumby but i think those Blockheads are selling bootleg belts online
How much does that thing cost?
it looks like something a kid would have gotten back in the 90's a toy. I'm guessing it actually cost a lot more than what a toy would have cost though...
Would like to see a video on your bootleg collection
Edit: you should buy a fake shitty belt and make as many improvements as possible
Brilliant Paul as usual. I had two Pakistani bootlegs and one was better that the other and they were both better than that by miles. It just depends on the maker I think! Question though, how come Steve Carrell turned up mid way through on Paul heymans face lol, I thought I was going crazy until I took it back?? Little hidden gem, whole video super funny and you should absolutely do more of these.
What maker did you get the better belt from ?
Is it really that bigger deal if you just want a belt to hang on your wall that’s not €400?
How did you end up with the Impact Wrestling Heavyweight Title Belt? What tradh can did you dig it out of?
That belt looks nuts will you ever cut one open
Plz do a series of bootleg belts plz🙏🏾
I have a winged eagle a lot like this. it was cheap and I bought it full knowing what it was, so I'm not upset at it. I'm happy to send it to you to tear apart
Please make this a series
who is the best person to buy a belt from? i want a winged eagle belt but i dont wanna get the one from wwe shop cause it doenst have the WWF logo
Sometimes those bootlegs are just fun to get a hold of , maybe trash them its already junk .
I know it's absolute shite but believe me, this would have been awesome to have back in high school during the 90s... (we had cardboard belts with craft paper and glitter for God sake...)
so wait did you like the belt
I've had a few boot makers on Instagram dm ask me to teach them how to do leather work and or do it for them I always decline I feel your pain man on the plates and the leather work itself that backing reminds me of a pillow lol
