I have a friend that has 3 belts. The WWF title(pre-undisputed), the WCW title, and the WCW US title. They're quite nice, and look very similar to the belts we see on TV. I'm not sure if the plates are made of metal, though. They seem kind of plastic-like. Also, unless you get a "deluxe replica" belt, which costs almost twice as much as a normal replica, you won't get a leather strap. Instead, the strap will be made of some sort of synthetic material.
I would recommend getting a belt if you want one, there's something very cool about getting to examine the detail on these belts up close, instead of the glimpses we catch of them on TV.
As for prices, give Ebay a try. There are lots of people on there selling belts for cheap (it's where my friend got his belts).
I'm, curious, at what point did you finally say to yourself, "Screw it, I'm never getting laid anyway."
Or am I in some alternate dimension where babes actually are turned on by the sight of fake wrestling title belts on the bureau?
My g/f was already pretty much hooked on me , so my belt didn't really take away from my *manhood*. ...on a side note it must be nice to have a house full of stuff that does nothing but turn *babes* on.
I have both the WWF and WCW World title belts - got the WCW belt back in 2000 and got the WWF belt last month for a birthday present.
The WWF belt is of a MUCH higher quality than the WCW belt - the plates are about twice as thick and seem better designed. Both look good but the WWF belt looks PERFECT.

I want to have sex with a girl who will no longer be attracted to me when she finds out that I am a wreslting fan. THAT'S the girl for me...
I used to keep a Produce Weight Title belt on my bureau in college (I was a Syracuse Orangeman), I have a life-size cutout of the Rock in my bedroom and I dressed as the Rock (wrestling attire Rock, not $300 shirt Rock) for Halloween on year... I don't have a problem getting laid...
but maybe the BootyRaper has to hide his internet-wrestling fan side in order to Rape all that Booty?
Count me among those who own a replica -- mine being a WCW World belt. I think the plates are metal, and I know the spare, blank nameplate that screws into the middle part is metal -- because I briefly considered getting it engraved with my name.
Then, I realized that action would be taking it a little too far, and just keep it zipped up in its nifty cloth protective case. I break it out now and then to show people, and my wife knows of its existence (thus lending no obstacles to getting to know her in the biblical sense on a semi-regular basis).
Back in April, 2000, a bunch of us chipped in for a WWF title belt before we went to Vegas. We gave it the "hardcore" treatment (took the hammer to it, put duct tape all over it) and it currently is the "Las Vegas 3Man Hardcore Title."
It gets defended, usually when drunk, and passes hands to the champion. Some notable title switches took place on the dance floor at the outdoor patio at Harrah's Casino in Vegas, on the dance floor of Craig's wedding (after a guestbook shot to the head,) and on the big flaming 'C' at center ice of the Calgary Saddledome.
Let me note that we're all in our late-twenties/early-thirties and most of us are, in fact, married.
Q: If you could have interviewed Marvin Gaye, where would you have proposed to meet and what would you have asked him?
A: I would have met anywhere as long as it was before his father shot him. I would have asked him, "Hey, don't you think there's some chance that your father might shoot you? To death, I mean?"
I have a copy of the old WWF World Title (as in, the one in use up until about a month ago when HHH got the new belt) that I got in fall 1999. For the next year and a half until I graduated high school, my now 17 year old brother and I would have a title match every Sunday afternoon (sometimes a triple threat match if we got one of our wrestling buddies to join in). I still brag to him because, in that 18 month or so period, he had two title riegns each one week in length. I think during the whole time we did this, there were only two weekends that did not see the title defended.
Childish?/ Maybe, call it what you want. But damn was it fun.
Heh...me and my friends did not spend big bucks on a title belt but we got a 15$ skull belt replica, named it 'the coolest belt' and kicked eachother's ass on N64 WM2k and No Mercy for the longest time.. These days we pretty much retired the belt because I would always win it (18 month cactus jack title reign) until now it has been forgotten, and we just fight for honor and the existing No Mercy belts..
We make entire ppvs and keep track of everything.. http://home.wanadoo.nl/distortedmind/nomercy/nomercy.html
and Hell it aint childish! It's fun
the 'coolest' belt currently decorates my hardcore plunder trashcan that stands in a corner of my room.

Chris Harris returning is one of those things that should be an easy home run, but then he has to show up looking like he went from the unemployment line to the buffet line. This is the first shot he's gotten at national TV exposure in years.
