I love how Cody Rhodes has started using a design based upon (because it's obviously a replica, hence the WWE logos) the early 1990's (the cover changed from white to black Intercontinental Championship belt.
It's a nice touch and will no doubt help Cody's character development. I wonder though, if this was the big pay off for the fans complaining about the WWE Championship belt? Perhaps this was WWE's way of saying "No we won't change the WWE Championship belt because it makes too much money, but we'll change one of the other title belts with a classic design in mind as a consolation prize"?
