AEW star Matt Hardy believes that the current WWE Tag Team Championship design is a step back from the other WWE title designs.
Hardy has held many iterations of the WWE Tag Team Title, with the AEW name previously holding some variation of WWE tag gold on 10 occasions.
During a Q&A episode on The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, Hardy shared his honest thoughts on the current title design, noting:
“I would say my favorite belt design is the first-ever WWE Tag Team titles that we won and the ones that were circulating in the late 90s, and early 2000s I love those. I didn’t like whenever they switched to the blue and red belts of the SmackDown tag belts.
“You know, I love those classic Tag Team Titles because those are the ones, when we were huge fans, we really loved wrestling and we dreamed about having those and then we ultimately won them, which was so super cool.
“The blue and red World Tag Team Championship, I thought that was a step back from the other titles, you know, especially the ones that preceded them, the tag titles before them look really, really nice. I think it was a step backward.”
The Usos are recognised as the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions, after unifying the Raw and SmackDown titles in May.
