PWTorch said:During a Q&A session Saturday at the Wizard World Comic Con in Philadelphia, WWE champion C.M. Punk said WWE is planning to reveal a new WWE Title belt to replace the spinner belt. However, Punk says he doesn't think it is an improvement over the current belt.
"I email people that you people don't know exist and I bother them constantly about this damn thing. There is a new title. I've seen it. I'll probably get in trouble for saying it, but I don't think it's any better than the current one." Punk re-assessed and said, "It's better than this (current WWE Championship). They literally just made it. It's about 20 pounds heavier than this one (once again, current WWE Championship he is speaking of). I keep preaching that I want to be the guy - if I'm not the guy who doesn't produce a new title, then I'll be a liar, and I don't want to be a liar. It's out there, and it's coming soon. Probably a lot sooner than the ice cream bars.
Punk's comments pick up around the 33:00 mark below.

Good news and I like the fact that he said it's coming very soon but who knows since he mentioned that it will be probably coming way sooner than the ice cream bars which I think probably won't ever come tbh. Could it be around next years WrestleMania season? Tbh, I think it will be at the 1000th RAW since it's the major RAW and starts them going 3 hours each week. It's the perfect timing to do it. It's good to have one of the current top guys in CM Punk unveil it since he has had such a long reign. And since he also mentioned that if he isn't the guy who doesn't produce the new title then that makes him a liar, he will most likely be the one to unveil it. Should be good when it does come. But wow, the fact it's 20 pounds more than the current belt is insane as the current one weighs well over 20 pounds doesn't it?
The current championship belt is so outdated and ridiculous. Looks so ugly and shit compared to the past championship belts and is a disgrace to have some sort of hip hop accessory as the championship belt for so long (that's what the belt was relevant to; Cena's hip hop gimmick). I always wondered why that belt stuck around. Austin got his own belt but it always went back to the original when he lost it so I assumed the same would happen with Cena as was the case with his US title. If I had the choice to buy a championship belt, I'd take the WHC over it.
