=Title Designs=

The UWF American Championship has gone through a couple of different designs during its lifetime. The first design was used on Here Comes the Pain. The champions wore the titles during season one. The design was still used during season two however the champions did not wear the titles to the ring. The reason was because Joe Evenson realized how much of a pain in the ass it was to play story mode every time the titles changed hands.

With season three UWF moved over to Smackdown vs. RAW 2006. A new title design was created and it was used from season three to the middle of season six.

In the middle of season six, UWF moved over to Smackdown vs. RAW 2007. The design of the title changed with the move. This new title design was used from the middle of season six to the end of season nine.

When Ness held the title, he modified it into a blue version of the normal title belt since he was a member of the Blue World Order
