If this figure is based off WM6 then why not the yellow IC belt, instead of the winged eagle?

I've never thought about that but good point.
I don't think the IC Belt mold had been released yet so I'm gonna guess that is why.

The IC belt was in Legends 4 with the first warrior so the mold was there Just ended up making my own **I know the back of the strap was actually black but I wanted it to stand out for the pose and match the other mattel belts**  |

They totally botched this belt. Warrior never used a yellow winged eagle belt on tv. He only had black, blue, white and purple world straps.

I assume because of L4, it Would've looked sick MOC if they would've included both titles like RSE Austin, Paige and HOF Yokozuna does.

I guess it was because they already gave him the IC belt in L4

The Warrior's belt was a design choice on my part. I know the belt he won had the black strap that night but one of the hallmarks of Warrior's title run was the different color belt straps, which is what I wanted to celebrate so to speak. Later figs who held that style belt will have a black strap. Bill said this a long time ago. |

There was never a yellow winged eagle.
Bill just thought it was cool so that's how they did it. (I read this from somewhere).

Just checking this as there is a thread already, did this belt come dull or shiny? I bought one loose with dull plates. If it did come dull, why?
BTW, the fact it was a yellow WWF belt and not an IC belt was the first thing I thought about when I seen this figure.

I assumed it was a hybrid of the 2 or at least that was the idea, having read Bills reply above from a while ago, it appears they just made it up. Simple to fix though  |
