I just spent $200 on a replica White IC Title

[Skynet]

So now I'll have both IC title and I already own the WCW title.

I don't even really watch wrestling anymore. I should probably stop, although I do like the winged eagle title...

Nice. Was it $20 postage to Australia?

I picked the delivery with the shortest delivery window. It came out to about $205AU total. The best way to buy from the WWE store is set it to deliver to AU but in US pricing. When it changes to AU pricing the overall price goes up about $20-$30

So I think it came to about US$156 or so with AU shipping.

EDIT:
Item Subtotal: USD 129.99
Shipping: USD 26.94
Total: USD 156.93

Yea, it's probably the most popular belt. The replica one now from WWEshop will have the W logo on it instead of WF on the original.

I found one here with the OG WF logo plate, however it's not an officially licensed one:

So I now have the belt. It feels like much better quality than the WCW title I have. Both are commemorative too, so you can really see the differences. The pictures are a bit blurry but here are some pics of the IC title and then a comparison shot with the WCW title.

[Big Boss Man]

Looks like the Undisputed/Raw heavyweight title with the WWE logo on it. The WcW version doesn't have a logo, it was the one Ric took to the WWF and was introduced in 1986 to take over from the old NWA domed belt. It's referred to as the Big Gold.



They both share the same design though so it could be a WWE branded WCW belt maybe.

[Skynet]

Yeah it was just the WWE branded one. It was marketed as WCW title when I bought it.

[Big Boss Man]

OK cool. It does definitely share the same design as the WCW Big Gold, WWE brand their WCW, ECW etc merchandise with their logo so it could be the WCW belt just they added a WWE logo to it for trademark purposes or something. Speaking of belts, WCW had to have this one for a while when Ric Flair took the other belt to the WWF as WCW/Jim Crockett Promotions owed him $25,000. They eventually phased that one out and brought back the Big Gold again which along with the Winged Eagle is one of my favorite pro-wrestling belts. I also like the Smokin' Skull belt that Stonecold had

[Skynet]

I think once/if I get the winged eagle, my collection for what I want will be complete. Those 3 belts (big gold, white IC, winged eagle) are what I think of when I think wrestling. I know there were others like the one Sting's holding, but I liked big gold better.

[Big Boss Man]

Yea me too. For me the big 3 are Winged Eagle, Big Gold and the NWA World belt (the one Flair, Race, Funk et AL) held. I think that encompasses the most important Pro Wrestling championships. NWA belt goes to back to the 40s so it has a real history. It was the belt Shane Douglas threw down in 1994 to turn Eastern into Extreme Championship Wrestling and it's still around today. The IC Belt would have to be #4, I liked the different color backgrounds that Warrior had. Surprised Honky didn't have a Blue Suede belt background when he was Intercontinental champ.

The way I see it is it's part of my childhood and has a nostalgia factor there. So I'm happy with that.

That's what most of my non bare essential spending is on.
(essential is food, alcohol, smokes and tech)
