The belt is a modified version of the iconic ‘Big Gold Belt.’ This belt is quite symbolic and is held in high regard for his adaptation in various promotions, including NWA and WCW. Randy Orton last held the WWE Heavyweight Championship before it was unified with the WWE Championship in 2013.
The Viper got a lot of recognition with the title and set multiple records during his run. The WWE World Heavyweight Championship is legendary in the sense that it became a mandatory title to exchange hands at 6 consecutive WrestleMania. All the top names in the division – Triple H, John Cena, The Undertaker, Randy Orton, and Batista—became the proud holders of the title during its tenure.

The top two titles that run in the company have a very standard design, and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship has broken the stereotype. It is, however, unclear if the title will be a revival of the original title or a new title for the company. Whatever the case may be, the title radiates a prestigious vibe. We will have to wait until the belt finds its rightful owner, as it surpasses the other titles currently running in the company.
Who can be the most suitable possessor of the new WWE World Heavyweight Championship?
Roman Reigns is nearing 1000 days of his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship reign. Multiple sources have claimed that the WWE is planning to allow Reigns to cross the 1000-day mark. As soon as the target is achieved, Cody Rhodes is expected to be the new WWE Champion and fulfill his father’s long dream.
The WWE Universe seemed utterly disappointed with Roman Reigns holding both WWE titles for such a long period of time. Even some superstars were not pleased with their non-title runs in the company. It was only after Triple H introduced the new belt that superstars and fans alike started speculating who would be the new champion.

The first name that pops up upon hearing of a world title is Seth Rollins. The former WWE Universal Champion has had a solid run in the company. Despite his full-time performance and ability to deliver absolute classics, he is without a title. Seth also holds a great record in the past when it comes to championship reigns, and it is expected that the next reign will give him the glistening golden belt. However, we will have to wait and see how the future goes with the new WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
