How to Make a Homemade Wrestling Belt for WWE Action Figures

Role-playing with or displaying WWE actions figures can have a lot more authenticity and style when you showcase the character's world championships alongside the figure. If you want to make your own custom title belt, or a title belt is not available at the store, a simple craft project can create dozens of these accessories for your figures. In just a few minutes you can create new champions from events like the Steel Cage Championship, or classic titles like the Hardcore Champion or Light-Heavyweight Title.

Things You'll Need

Tape measure
Black vinyl fabric
Quarter
Clear tape
Utility knife
Belt image
Printer
Photo paper
Scissors
Gold fabric paint
Lamination film
Super glue

Instructions

- 1
  Measure the waist around your WWE figure. Add 1/2-inch to this length.
- 2
  Lay out the black vinyl and measure the length of the belt. Flip the vinyl over and tape a quarter to the center of the belt to help you match the rounded shape of a real title belt.
- 3
  Cut out the title shape with scissors or a utility knife. Cut around the quarter to make the curved shape. Remove the quarter and the tape when the strap is cut out.
- 4
  Measure the center diameter of the title belt to know the size of the faceplate. Print out the belt image you want to use on photo paper.
- 5
  Cut out a square piece of lamination film. Make sure the piece is slightly larger than the printout of the title belt faceplate.
- 6
  Peel the end of the lamination film and attach to the end of a table. Lay the printout flat and then apply the lamination film on top of it. Press down as you go to remove any air bubbles.
- 7
  Cut out the laminated faceplate shapes. Apply the faceplates to the front of the belt with super glue. Assure that they are centered on the title.
- 8
  Apply gold fabric paint to create small studs and faux connection pieces on the belts. Lay the belt flat and wait for the paint to dry before displaying or using with your WWE action figures.
