Sami Callihan has shown off the new design of the Impact Wrestling World Title.

Callihan defeated Brian Cage in a steel cage match to win the Impact World Championship back on the October 29th episode of Impact television. This marked an important night for the promotion as it was the premiere of the promotion’s flagship weekly 2-hour show on AXS TV.

Callihan will make his next title defense against Tessa Blanchard at the Hard to Kill pay-per-view event.


He did so this week on his official Twitter account by sharing photos. By looking at the photos, the title belt features Impact’s new red color scheme following the move to AXS TV.

#HappyNewYears@IMPACTWRESTLING loves me so much… they got me a NEW fucking belt.

Black & Red like my heart. #TheDRAW
