It is very off putting but you have to protect certain secrets from being revealed to the “other people” end up stealing from the actual people who make real belts.
I agree, I look at the modern WWE championships especially the universal championship it looks so generic like the artists had no imagination for the design, the new WWE World Heavyweight championship belt on the other hand is a nice looking belt.
@@tmac731 for me the wwe version of the big gold belt (wolrd heavyweight championship) is the best belt in wrestling history alongside winged eagle and old njpw world belt
So with boxing belts sure there would be spandex or inner lining but for ring used wresting belts such as wwe,aew etc. they’re 100% real leather and no foam / spandex lining in them
The closing mechanism these days is most often velcro. The snaps you can see are most often just ornamental. It makes it easier to put the title on and take off.
What an amazing process, as a life long wrestling boxing and later UFC fan I love the belts and a great belt just makes it so much better especially with the wrestling belts, id love to be able to make these myself but there's not much chance of that haha
@@skrunklyOwOthen why did I have to wait months to get my new champ title…I would think the factory wouldn’t take so long. Maybe because I bought it a week after it was introduce idk I’m curious
I hand cut and fabricated an entire belt from eighth inch thick metal. Came out pretty dope, but unexpectedly way too heavy. My pops, who's been a metal fabricator for 40 years, complimented my craftsmanship. You'd be surprised to learn how impossible it is to find someone to do etching on a custom title belt.
This guy clearly doesn’t know how a wrestling belt is made. He clearly shows boxing belts, which aren’t made the same way. Wrestling belts are zinc plates that are acid etched. They are not cast copies
That was interesting to watch! Crazy that they only showed clips of WWE and not the other companies. Listen, I get it, World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment is the main company for many years but let's not forget where most of these superstars came from. TNA Wrestling, Ring of Honor, New Japan Pro Wrestling, Chikara Pro, CZW, Women of Wrestling, NWA, World Championship Wrestling. Another note, wish I can find someone that can restore my replicas that I have. They definitely need a good do over since it's been so many years of owning the few I got, lol.
the soft metal castings are known as "match plates" in the casting industry. they eliminate the need to model in clay or wax every time. this allows serial production of identical castings. it also ensures much greater detail.
2:03 that guy didn't design the WWE Title. That's the Orange County Chopper guy who took WWE's design and did some computer work to convert the file so their machines could cut out the pieces of the title.
That new beautiful U.S Championship title design (only 2nd to the 2002 Undisputed Championship) should've been used for the new WWE Championship. & not just the big W they adopted from the WWE Network logo all that time back.
@@KingKongDoni google or RUclips Reggie parks. Dave Millican. Wildcat belts. There’s plenty of videos on how the process is done. Wrestling belts are acid etched in a tank. Then plated. Hand tooled and hand dyed leather. Designs are made out of a model. They’re done by renderings on the computer. I could keep going and going on the differences.
I met Dave Millican at Starrcast 1 in 2018. SUPER nice guy. He indulged my belt nerd questions over the course of 3 days. Ran into him the following year waiting for our Uber's after AEW Double or Nothing, the night the AEW belt was unveiled. He actually remembered me. Even pulled out his phone and showed me pics of the process of creating the belt!
They actually are belts. Titles refer to the tilte like Doctor is a title for a person. So winning the title means you have the honour of adding the title to your name. Like world champion. The title isn't a physical thing. The belt is
@@GamingNewsIn60you obviously missed the joke.😄... when McMahon was around he prohibited wrestlers from calling them belts or straps...there is a long list of words that you couldn't say on WWE tv like "pro wrestling", "wrestler", "fan base", "crowd", etc...cause he wanted to distinguish WWE as being above everyone else's promotion. It was an ego thing...that list has shortened when Vince left but some words still remain due to the established branding that was created... although there have been instances where wrestlers have let it slip out but it was mostly to establish the new management and stick it to Vince cause they are no longer reprimanded for saying it like before.
Honesty tin? If not gold they should at least be silver then gold plated. I mean I get the symbolism but they should hold monetary value as well. If not, all you really have is a hunk of worthless metal. I know the UFC belts are made with two pounds of pure gold. Not that you would, but in theory that belt melt value would be roughly $60,000.00 alone… now that’s something worth fighting for!
Even before watching this video I knew it had to be time consuming to make the belts but the current WWE Titles excluding the US Title are very bland and boring looking. I know its not the belt makers who come up with those designs. I'm sure they're just going by what WWE wants but they have no character to them.
Idk if your speaking for a specific company or all. But wwe and alot of other companys makes their titles out of aluminum. They switched to this to lighten the belts weight. They dont use tin. Theres a few things you got wrong. Google isnt always right. 😂
Belt Makers: *Handcrafted and Detailed with gemstones and gold*
Wrestlers: Imma use this to hit my opponent
Vince K McMahon … where’s my 🏆👀🥷🏽🦅
ONLY WAYYY TO GOOO😂😂😂
its off putting that they replay the same footage over and over again instead of actually showing us how its actually done
Thanks, I read this 10 seconds in. You saved me from bothering to watch it at all

So cool they included the WrestleTalk belt
I noticed that too I wonder if anybody there has seen that yet
SUPPORT WRESTLETALK!
Literally came to see if anyone here mentioned that belt
Why is it so awesome to see the Jam That Jampionship on this? 😂😂❤
Right caught it instantly
Exactly 💯
i know right i hope WrestleTalk knows they on How It's Made
@@xvomthemadd5910 They do now it was mentioned briefly on the raw review podcast.
That WWF winged eagle belt is no question the best looking belt ever
I agree, I look at the modern WWE championships especially the universal championship it looks so generic like the artists had no imagination for the design, the new WWE World Heavyweight championship belt on the other hand is a nice looking belt.
Stole my comment, but yes, goat belt ever.
Nah it’s the big gold NWA/WCW/world heavyweight championship, attitude era then the winged eagle
@@tmac731 for me the wwe version of the big gold belt (wolrd heavyweight championship) is the best belt in wrestling history alongside winged eagle and old njpw world belt
For me, it's too hard to decide between the Winged Eagle, Crumrine Big Gold, Undisputed, AJPW Triple Crown, TNA v1, AEW, or IWGP v4.
I love the first line
"because of how brutal wrestling is, you probably think the process is similar"
no we didnt lol.
The bumps and bruises are real, it’s just scripted.

Some belts have had a suede backing on the leather strap.
The current WWE belts with BIG A** W logo just a mockery on how beautiful the older belt are. It's like the current belt no longer have creativities.
The closing mechanism these days is most often velcro. The snaps you can see are most often just ornamental. It makes it easier to put the title on and take off.
Velcro was only used one time and that was because the luggage was lost with the belt in it, so he had to use a replica belt
@@pgrrstlliterally every single championship, from the NXT tag titles to Roman’s WWE championship, all use velcro.
2:41 Wrestletalk Cameo right there. With the Jam That Jam belt .
5:38
I would give anything to have someone teach me how to make wrestling belts
Learn: sculpting, metal casting, and leather work.
Do you want belts?
What an amazing process, as a life long wrestling boxing and later UFC fan I love the belts and a great belt just makes it so much better especially with the wrestling belts, id love to be able to make these myself but there's not much chance of that haha
Boxing belts are made by casting and molding (some of the time nowadays), wrestling belts are acid etched.
im not a beltmaker but i too use a dake arbor press daily. they have been making presses for well over 100 years. mine will last for generations.
I have the new US title belt and now I see why these things are so expensive
Wwe shop Replica belts are made in factory not nitty gritty hand made by artists.
@@skrunklyOwOthen why did I have to wait months to get my new champ title…I would think the factory wouldn’t take so long. Maybe because I bought it a week after it was introduce idk I’m curious
The winged eagle, 80-maybe mid 2000s the IC title, and the same year tag belt.
Since 2003 whoever designed the WWE belts needs to be fired.
It's sad that belts made 30 years ago look better than this garbage they have now.
Thanks for the documentry. I was looking for something like this video.
Clearly ZERO research went into this video 😂
Maybe if you did that rather than lift images from other people it would have been an informative video.

WWE world heavyweight belt is the most iconic belt ever.
The belts we see in the WWE now have absolutely no imagination in design at all
The current belts are awesome, now that they've changed the women's and introduced back the WHC.
Why is it so awesome to see the Jam That Jampionship on this?
1:25 dude in the Virtual audience was devastated miz won 😂😂
'90s WWF belts will always be the best! It's sad how most WWE belt look almost identical now.
Vince - it’s NOT a belt it’s a TITLE!!

Wow! Cool video, I hope wwe debut’s new world titles soon. The current ones are bland.
The new united state championship belt is so beautiful
You forgot the part where an 8 year uses crayons to draw out the design of the belt…lol
I watch the other how is made videos which are cool but I really love wwe so I really enjoy seeing how they are made
I would love to be a belt maker
Someone tell WrestleTalkTV that the Jam That Jampionship was featured in this!
These humans are so talented👏👏👏
beautiful job
Little disappointing that it’s tin and not actually solid gold but it makes sense.
Paul Martins work is the best in the UK
I’m pretty sure no one thought the process of making them was industrial…..
Was this the only thing that happened in the company that didn't go through Vince Mcmahon for approval?
Jam that Jam😁😁😁
i guess kayfabe gold belts are actually tin. lol. diamonds are probably bedazzled cubic zirconia.
That new beautiful U.S Championship title design (only 2nd to the 2002 Undisputed Championship) should've been used for the new WWE Championship.

Why are they made different from boxing belts
Different makers have different processes. Not everyone is the same.
Muy buen video explicas todo correcto, pero repites mucho las imagenes q pusiste en un principio ya no es divertido de ver :/
And of course, they show Dave Millican.
Well of course he and Reggie Parks are the kings of Belt making

I bet them mfs make bank when they make belts for WWE
Was Cody Rhodes's first run TNT title belt not yet electroplated? Is that why it wasn't shiny yet?

Are those diamonds
most belts are chemically etched or done on a cnc. no one casts anymore
What would a Wrestling Belt be worth ?
100% chat GPT generated video
They definitely used synthetic diamonds
I thought they are real gold
They're not belts. They're titles!
They actually are belts.
Titles refer to the tilte like Doctor is a title for a person.
