If I was a wrestler I'd be annoyed that the WWE gives away championship belts. Being the WWE champion is what superstars dream of being!

That is not all. Some fans felt that there was no need to make such a custom belt. While others asked to hand over the custom belt to the referees and criticized the referees.
