[10.0] "An excellent replacement for the original title after Flair briefly took the belt with him. For a short period, it shared the same level of prestige, and it carried that weight with style. The design was striking, exuding classic prestige, and it was defended in some truly memorable matches. The bout between Rick Rude and Sting stands out as a perfect example; an incredible match that showcased both performers at the top of their game while elevating the title's status."

[10.0] "Amazing replacement belt for the world title after Flair took it with him and the came back, so for a short time two belts were the same level of prestige. It had a wonderful design and had some fantastic matches for the belt, Rick Rude vs Sting is truly incredible."
[7.0] "A belt born of confusion - as I understand it, when Ric Flair left WCW with the NWA World Title in 1991, WCW created their own new World Heavyweight Title, and when Flair returned with the Big Gold Belt, he was recognized as both WCW and NWA World Champ with the Big Gold Belt representing both. But in 1993, when WCW withdrew from the NWA, Rick Rude was scheduled to defeat Flair for the NWA Title. The match and title change went ahead, but since WCW no longer had the rights to the NWA name, the title Rude won was claimed as the title of a fictional subsidiary, "WCW International. " The International World Heavyweight Title briefly coexisted with the regular World Heavyweight belt, and during its existence the International belt racked up an impressive title history with actual international legitimacy (as Rude traded the belt with Hiroshi Hase in NJPW), but it ultimately became superfluous and understandably was soon unified with the regular WCW World Heavyweight Title."
