How Many Belts Are in the WWE? Every Championship Explained

WWE has 16 active championships as of September 2026: five on Raw, five on SmackDown, five on NXT, and the Women’s Tag Team Championship, which is shared across brands. Counting the Evolve and ID developmental titles, the total is 20.

If you have ever tried to count the belts in the WWE, you have probably ended up with a different number each time. The company adds, retires and renames titles often, and the roster is split across several brands. Here is the current list, brand by brand.

Raw championships

  • World Heavyweight Championship
  • Women’s World Championship
  • WWE Intercontinental Championship
  • WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship
  • World Tag Team Championship

SmackDown championships

  • Undisputed WWE Championship
  • WWE Women’s Championship
  • WWE United States Championship
  • WWE Women’s United States Championship
  • WWE Tag Team Championship

NXT championships

  • NXT Championship
  • NXT Women’s Championship
  • NXT North American Championship
  • NXT Women’s North American Championship
  • NXT Tag Team Championship

Cross brand and developmental titles

The WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship is shared across brands. Below the main roster, WWE Evolve and WWE ID each have their own men’s and women’s titles, which are not always counted in the headline number.

Why the number keeps changing

Titles get unified, split again or replaced when stories and brand rosters change. That is also why you will see older designs on sale long after a belt has changed on television. Fans often want the version they grew up with, whether that is a classic WWF title, an Attitude Era design or the spinner belt from the mid 2000s.

Which WWE belts can you own as a replica?

Almost any of them. We hand make replicas of current and classic titles, and each one is built to full size with metal plates and a real leather strap. If you want a look at the range, browse our WWE championship belts, the spinner championship belts or the classic WWF belts.

Want something that does not exist on television, such as your own league, your own name or your own logo on the center plate? That is what our custom championship belts are for. We send a free mockup within 24 to 48 hours so you can approve the design before we start building.
