WWE has revealed a new championship replica inspired by CM Punk — and this one blends wrestling gold with hometown pride.
On February 19, the official WWEShop account shared a 38-second teaser showcasing the CM Punk x Chicago Blackhawks Signature Series Championship Title Belt. The post read, “Crafted for the Best in the World. CM Punk x Chicago Blackhawks Signature Series Championship Title Belt. Available Monday. #WWEShop,” confirming a February 23 release date.
The video contains no narration. Instead, it relies on dramatic close-ups and slow rotations to let the belt speak for itself.
CM Punk x Chicago Blackhawks Belt Details Revealed
The teaser opens with extreme close-ups of a red leather strap, complete with textured finishes and red gem-like studs. Engravings referencing the Chicago Blackhawks are visible, along with side plates that incorporate the team’s iconic logo and Punk’s signature “X” symbol.
As the camera shifts to the main plate, viewers can see a customized take on the classic WWE Championship design. Red accents glow subtly under studio lighting, while striped red-and-white elements evoke the Blackhawks’ jersey colors. Additional shots reveal crossed hockey stick-style motifs and “CM Punk” branding across the strap.
The belt also includes an authentication card co-branded with WWE and NHL logos, underscoring its Signature Series status. The closing frames focus on the rolled strap and polished main plate, emphasizing premium craftsmanship.
This collaboration follows the earlier 434-day commemorative Punk belt and arrives amid heightened visibility for the self-proclaimed “Best in the World,” who is also set to appear on the cover of WWE 2K26 ahead of its March 13 release.
Fan reaction online has been largely positive. Many observers have heaped praise for the crossover appeal between WWE and Chicago’s sports culture. With limited-edition items often selling out quickly, collectors may want to keep their eyes on the selling price — and their fingers ready at checkout.
