The EWA World Heavyweight Title Belt PHOTO BY DICK BOURNE
The EWA Heavyweight title belt was crafted by Dave Millican and was patterned after the 1983-1986 version of US Heavyweight Championship, worn by Greg Valentine, Ricky Steamboat, Wahoo McDaniel, Magnum TA, and Tully Blanchard. It also features the "wrestling babies", part of the famous 1980s logo of Joe Blanchard's Southwest Championship Wrestling promotion.

A bloody George South applies his famous claw hold on Jake "The Snake" Roberts during their title match on 5/8/10 in Lexington. But it was to no avail. Minutes later, Jake hit the DDT and walked away with the EWA championship belt.

It might look like Mr. Florida had the Barbarian almost out with the Bear Hug, as special referee Jimmy Valiant lifted his hand checking for the submission. But minutes later, the Barbarian had his hand raised one more time, this time in victory as he had become the new EWA Heavyweight Champion. MOORESVILLE NC 6/19/07 - PHOTO BY THOM BREWER
