The current belt representing the (WWE) World Heavyweight Title isn't a replica of the WCW Title Belt. That's a huge misconseption. Ric Flair once said on WWE Confidential, that it is the genuine article. SilentRage 11:14, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
Also should Rude's third reign be recognised?

Flair won the NWA World Title for the 10th time on July 18, 1993. WCW severed ties with the NWA on September 1, 1993. Flair is somewhat retroactively considered the first WCW International Champ as he was NWA World Champ, and WCW owned the belt and had to call it something. And the fact that Flair defeated Sting to unify the WCW International Title with the WCW Title makes Flair a 2 time WCW International Champ. Total that with his 10 NWA World Titles, 8 WCW Titles, & 2 WWF Titles makes Flair a 22 time champ, not 16. Goes to show WWE can't count! MrNWA4Life 11:04 25 July 2009
The first person to be recognized as WCW International world heavyweight Champion was Rick Rude. Saying that flair was "retroactively the first champion" is bs. WCW Fan 2000 ( talk) 07:18, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
WCW International should have its own article. Discuss. Brendan Heron ( talk) 23:53, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
This should really be merged with the article on the regular WCW World Heavyweight Championship that was borne out of the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. The information between the pages is nearly identical.
One article that explains the origins of the title, the spin off of the International championship due to Flair leaving/the separation from the NWA, and the separate short lived 6 star WCW World Heavyweight Championship would be a lot more fluid. JasonOT ( talk) 06:27, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
