Ever wonder how pro-wrestling title belts are made? To get some answers, I went to the #1 championship title maker working today - Andrew of Wildcat Championship Belts! I asked him about the production of belts, the timetable for having a championship belt fabricated, and everything from getting a proof to receiving the completed title belt.

6:15 - hey that’s my (current) title! Wildcat was great to work with. They were always very responsive to my status updates because I gave them a very tight timeline before the show we were set to debut it at Northern Lights Wrestling here in Saint Paul. Wildcat isn’t the cheapest - but the quality and customer service is worth the price. Thanks for showcasing them, sir. (Been following the channel for years and read two of your books)

Could you please share some tips on how to maximize being in a faction/stable/wrestling group and how to coexist with your faction mates when there's a clash of ideas.

Yes, an interesting topic, to be sure. I’m amazed there isn’t a documentary about this

I found it interesting that he doesn’t etched the premium belts himself, I figured he was like Reggie or JMAR and did it himself, cool to learn.

@TilWeMakeIt 8 ай бұрын

Is the etching still commonly done by hand? I must admit, I don’t know much about that part of the process

@PW.Skyline.V37 8 ай бұрын

@@TilWeMakeIt I know some do via acid etching, others do CNC’ing, some probably a combination or both along with hand etching with certain tools. It makes sense if his are CNC’d and so sent off because the CNC machines I think start at around $10K for a decent sized one iirc. Thanks for the reply too, love your content and was super happy to see this video because I am a belt mark since spotting the Winged Eagle & the Reggie IC over 30 years ago now.

@@PW.Skyline.V37 Thanks! I only just learned of CNC from chatting with Andrew at Wildcat, so this has been a real education for me!

I regularly watch videos of custom belt makers and love all the cool designs they come up with, so it was cool to see it in this context. This video was made of CHAMPIONSHIP material (dad joke , yes i know)@@TilWeMakeIt

At one time he did outsource the plates. I knew who he did it to. Im sure he isnt making the plates inhouse.
