This listing is a made-to-order replica by MS Belts of a World Tag Team Wrestling Champions design, with chrome-toned frames, brass-toned panels and a gold wrestler medallion on every plate. We could not match it to one real title, because several promotions have used the name. The page opens on the build closest to the design in the photos, and every choice shows its price.
About the World Tag Team Championship
World Tag Team Championship is a name many promotions have used, so the name alone cannot tie this design to one title. Wikipedia lists territorial NWA World Tag Team Championships between 1949 and 1982, including Georgia, Florida, Mid-America and Mid-Atlantic, and the WWF's World Tag Team Championship began in 1971.
The AWA ran its own World Tag Team Championship from 1960 until the promotion closed in 1991. The Crusher and Dick the Bruiser had five reigns as a team, the most for any team. We found no source showing this plate wording, these chrome frames and these medallions on any of those belts, so we treat it as a generic tag team design.
Design details
- Centre plate: a shield-shaped plate with a chrome-toned frame and a brass-toned panel reading WORLD, TAG TEAM, WRESTLING and CHAMPIONS, with red lettering on WORLD and CHAMPIONS and a gold wrestler medallion in the middle.
- Side plates: rectangular plates in pairs either side of the centre plate, each a chrome-toned frame around a brass-toned panel with a round gold wrestler medallion.
- Colours: silver-toned frames, antique brass panels, gold medallions, red lettering.
- Strap: black.
The real belt and commercial replicas
We found no source that ties the plate wording, the chrome frames and the wrestler medallions to one real belt, and no commercial replica we could verify. This page therefore follows the design in the photos rather than a documented build. Our closest build is Zinc alloy (cast), Standard, 4 mm, which is what this page shows first.
How we make it
- Plates: brass as standard (cut and engraved to the design, then finished by hand), or zinc alloy cast in a mould made for the design for +$100 (deeper 3D relief, takes plating well).
- Finish: standard, or 24K gold electroplating for +$20 (a thin layer of real gold on the surface of the plates, not solid gold).
- Thickness: 2 mm is included, up to 5 mm at +$50 per extra millimetre.
- Strap: cowhide leather, about 50–51 in (127–130 cm), snap closure with several snap positions. Other sizes and strap colours can be quoted by email.
