BeltFanDan, a self-proclaimed “Human Belt Encyclopedia” and creator of custom belts, has claimed on Reddit that WWE is working on new designs for both the Intercontinental title and United States title.
He has previously correctly predicted the new WWE Women’s belt and Universal title belt before its debut and seems to have sources in the belt-making biz.
According to Dan:
Both New WWE IC and US Belts Are Coming
FWIW:
I was told they were looking into a new IC belt back in November, but a different source said they are replacing both Midcard belts.
No eta, no clue on design other than it’s NOT copies of the Big Logo.
When asked what the reason for the possible change was, he replied:
They want fresh designs they own the rights to.
IC belt is copyright of Parks/Millican/Mann LLC.
WWE is no longer using Dave Millican for their belts, so they probably want to drop the design so they don’t have to pay royalties.
