These are probably the best pics I've ever seen of these belts, and I lifted them from here. Rumor has it that a new belt will be replacing these soon, made by Belt Performance. Congrats to Christian on the gig.

A lot of history tied to these belts. I read that they will be given to Giant Baba's widow and that she will keep them on display in her home. Only fitting.

I love the idea of AJPW's triple crown. Just makes being champ feel more special to me. That and the trophy that went with it.

I wish they would keep the belts they have, but I can understand wanting to update to something more modern too. I think they still look great, but I get the idea behind it. I don't know how I feel about there only being one belt to replace the three. I guess the three would be consolidated and just called the Triple Crown Championship. I guess technically there is no PWF anymore, and these titles haven't been won on their own in at least 20 years I think, so I guess it makes sense in that aspect. I'm sure Belt Performance will make an amazing belt for them, Christian's work is right up there with Dave Millican's to me.

They're all great looking but I like the United National belt the most.

First one is definitely the best, minus the button candies on it. Kenta Kobashi displaying them all on one arm just makes them, and him, look all that more impressive.

I love it. Love how he incorporated all three belts into one. Great job.
