Posted March 29, 200619 yr comment_4728592 I found this pic on a beltmaker site, it's someone's collection of NWA title belts: From top to bottom: NWA World Title held by Dan Severn in the mid 90s NWA "Globe Dome" World title used from the 70s-1986 and from about 1995 on.

March 30, 200619 yr comment_4733465 I'm a beltmark, and that's an awesome pic. I know the guy who happens to own those belts, and he's a great guy. His name's Superdave; and he posts over at a Beltmarks site. Also, even though I truly love wrestling belts, I don't think there's any way I could spend that much money on belts. The Figures Inc replica belts work just fine for me.
March 30, 200619 yr comment_4734146 For some reason I have a feeling this guy isn't married.Yeah, he actually is married. I think he owns a small supermarket of some sort. That is, if its the guy I think it is. BTW, would you guys be willing to shell out the kind of money it costs to buy a real belt? I've been a wrestling fan all my life, and a wrestling belt fan for quite some time, but I don't think I'd ever spend 2 grand on a WWF logoed Winged Eagle belt, which is my alltime favorite belt.
March 31, 200619 yr comment_4736661 I can think of about a zillion things I'd rather buy than a championship belt. I think if you buy one for yourself...not an autographed one, or one that actually belonged to somebody...I mean if you buy a duplicate belt just because you wanted to have one...you need to sit down and have a serious look at your life. You either have money to burn...or another more serious problem. Like, time to legally change your name to Lou Zer. I was once in line at an ECW show in Buffalo, and Balls Mahoney and Axl Rotten were working the tables. Balls was selling that chair that he smashed over Steve Corino's head, the one that was shown on the clip at the start of ECW on TNN every week. They were selling it for 100 bucks...and for about one second I considered buying it. Then I said..."What the HELL am I thinking?" I have a piece of smashed table autographed by Sabu. I have a Funk U T-Shirt that Terry himself sold me at an indie show. I have a ticket stub from the last show the Road Warriors ever worked before Hawk died, and it's autographed by Ted DiBiase. That's as far as I go with memorabilia.
March 31, 200619 yr Author comment_4736694 I'd buy one of those Figures Inc belts, but as much as I mark for wrestling belts I wouldn't pay over a grand for one.
March 31, 200619 yr comment_4738380 I think Sek knows good and damned well how big a belt mark I am. The belts pictured are all from my all-time favorite era of wrestling and I'd be hard pressed to pick an absolute favorite. A more interesting question would be: what wrestler(s) do you all most readily associate with each title? "Globe" World Title: Harley Race, Ric Flair US Title: for some strange reason, Lex Luger TV Title: Tully Blanchard and to a lesser extent, Arn Anderson 6-Man Tag: Dusty Rhodes and the Road Warriors US Tag: Midnight Express World Tag: Rock N Roll Express Western States Heritage: Barry Windham
March 31, 200619 yr Author comment_4738554 When did Severn use the top belt? He was champ from 2-24-95 to 3-14-99.
