There was an interesting photo floating around the web that featured a new WWE United States Title design. This new design was featured on the official Facebook page of the Florence Civic Center in Florence, South Carolina. The arena was promoting an upcoming WWE live event.
It turns out that this belt is a work of photoshop. If you look closely at the belt, you can see that there is a watermark on it. This was pointed out by one of our followers (@TheEvolutionWWE). Here is the original photo posted by the arena and also a close-up of the watermark.
“New” #USTitle? Nope. See the water mark. #SDLive pic.twitter.com/kuPhdJM9zy

PWInsider posted an update for those that aren’t fully convinced that it isn’t real:
“Several PWInsider.com readers who are belt aficionados, including Eric Walker, sent word that the title belt design seen in the artwork actually popped up online last year. Eric noted that the belt design has been traced to a bootleg version of the U.S. title created in Pakistan. If that is indeed the case, the question that now arises is how that version of the belt ended up on official WWE artwork posted by a WWE venue’s Facebook page?”

Bummer. It’s a solid design.
