I'm indifferent. I didn't like it when Rock pulled the sheet back, but once he draped it over his shoulder i started to warm up a bit to it. We'll see in the coming weeks.
Of course this is virtually the end of the world for a lot of people here.

Once the Rock put it on his shoulder it instantly grew on me. If the sideplates change when he loses it, I'll like it a lot more ;p

It's a "YES!" for me. It's growing on me rapidly, especially when Rock draped it over his shoulder. The sideplates have screws on them so those bulls aren't permanent...not sure if there'll be new logos any time a new champion is crowned or if it will simply go to the WWE logo in front of the red globe like the replica has. I had VERY LOW expectations when the picture of the main plate leaked last summer, but it looks better than anything I pictured in my head.

Seeing better pictures of it has won me over.

I don't mind the belt it all, I think it looks rather nice despite it resembling the qualities of the divas title which I really don't like but that's honestly besides the point.

Sucks. Reminds me of the Light Heavyweight Title - which is my favorite belt design of all time - but I'd never want it to be used for a world championship. Yuck!

It's ugly, but I think its better then the spinner. I just can't wait for all the "WHERE IZ DA NEW BELT METTEL???" threads.

They brought back a throwback version of the IC title....I don't see why bringing back a vintage style belt like the winged eagle is such a difficult thing for WWE to realize that almost EVERYBODY wants!

I think it's inevitable before the sideplates are removed and replaced with eagles, stars etc. I think a good majority will be somewhat satisfied with the belt then.

Everybody doesn't want that though. The demographic that WWE caters to doesn't even know what the winged eagle belt is.

I wouldn't want a newer version of the Winged Eagle belt to represent the most prestige belt within the company even thought that point is irrelevant to me because I don't think any of the belts have real meaning behind them anymore.

So, I was kinda right about my theory about the side plates...

at first i didn't like it, but after seeing some other pics it looks okay. might grow on me and anything other than the spinner is refreshing.
why in the hell they didn't give punk the new title is beyond me.

I don't mind it. Its better than the spinner belt IMO. I like how the leather from the strap comes through on the main plate.
I just think its a HUGE slap in the face to CM Punk though. He carried around the spinner belt for over a year and I think he should have been the one to debut the new title...
Then again, thats just my opinion...

It looks better in pictures than it does on tv. I'm just glad the last one is finally gone. I'm sure this will grow on me.

This new WWE Title wouldn't have fit Punk's character for him to be the one to debut it. CM Punk was so anti-establishment and the complete opposite of being a "company guy" with his feuds with Cena and Vince that he would NEVER debut a belt with a huge ass WWE logo right in the middle of it. If they were dead set on this new belt being the one they were going to go with, CM Punk had no choice but to carry the spinner. Yeah, the spinner also had a huge ass WWE logo in the middle of it, but Punk only WON IT, he didn't create it. I think WWE wants us to be under the assumption that The Rock designed this new belt. Punk would carry a belt he won off somebody else with a huge ass WWE logo on it, but if his character was given the opportunity to design a new belt, it would NOT look like the spinner OR the new belt. I would have LAUGHED if CM Punk was the one to debut this new belt after his character openly mocked the WWE and how unjust it was how badly he was treated by Vince and all of the corporate conspiracies to hold him down.

I voted Other.
I want to see more of it on TV, see if they are going to do the personalized sideplates for certain guys, and give it time; It might really grow on me. I don't hate it by any means though atm.
Not Winged Eagle, Big Eagle, or Undisputed level though IMO.
