I'm not surprised with the women's belt. However I like it actually. There aren't too many clashing colors like the Raw women's belt. And it's waaaay better than the Universal title.
The tag belts surprised me. I didn't think they'd go with that design. I like them! The blue strap could have been a little lighter. Maybe a cerulean color. It's a little dark and hard to really tell if the straps are black or blue. The silver is really awesome! Way better than the old bronze design.
Woops...right after I posted this, I went to look at the Raw tag belts. I completely forgot they were the "old bronze" versions. Haha I ever really payed attention to them. I honestly had no idea what Raw had as tag belts.

I'd wager that if you asked someone in the know, they'd tell you that they're trying to stress equality among the competitors and the shows. Hence why the top male and female titles all look the same, the only distinction being the coloring of the belt itself. Now the same with the Tag titles. RAW=Smackdown Male=Female At least that's most likely the spin. not buying the equality thing. that's not how wwe thinks. they named their raw belt universal to make it seem more important than the smackdown belt. At least that's most likely the spin. I'm not sure where I lost you.

It's definitely about equality. With regards to the universal championship. The way I see it is that they didn't want to undo the whole unification of the world heavyweight title and WWE title so decided to give it a different name entirely but keep the same design to ensure they're treated equally.

I like that the titles look the same because it showcases equality between them. The WWE World title is equal to the Universal which is Equal to the Woman's title and the SD Woman's title.

Really. Smart move on creative. Idk how carmella did on nxt, but she was flopping hard and fast so this heel turn was needed bad. And it'll work.

I think I'd like to see Becky take it...and either sink or swim. It's obviously looking more like Nikki or Carmella are going to be their go-to girls though.

I just get the vibe that not one person backstage cares if Becky is there or not. She's literally irrelevant compared to everyone else from nxt.
