Of course it has. The IC title used to be great, but it's absolute crap in today's wrestling.

The IC belt has been in a state of rebuild for awhile nw that is giving back some meaning. Jeff HArdy had a long run that was supposed to turn into a World title run...I see Y2J holding that belt for awhile and then getting another run with the belt.
I also think MVP has done great as US Champion!

Dusty Rhodes, Lex Luger, Nikita Koloff, Magnum TA, Barry Windham, Ric Flair...that belt belongs in the NWA. I hate wrestling now. WWE has killed the whole sport.

Wow I didnt know that piece of history. Good to know.
I loved when Honky Tonky would bash everyone over the head with his guitar.

I wonder...did he invent the loaded guitar filled with powder or was that Jeff Jarrett? It might have even been the Freebirds now that I think about it...
