5 Reasons why Daniel Bryan unveiled a brand new WWE Championship

#4 Because of the actual environmental benefits

WWE is a company committed to changing the world through social initiatives

I know that Daniel Bryan is supposed to be a heel. But he makes a few very interesting points about the environment for sure. Everything he says is factually right but is rejected by the WWE Universe.

And therefore, a title belt made of organic hemp that is 100% sustainable, created from a fallen oak is a very novel idea indeed. It can even earn WWE brownie points with environmental activists and organisations who may see merit in a championship of this nature. While the crowd in attendance may boo it out of the building, others may completely dig it.

One wonders if, in time, WWE will reject the idea of leather straps and actually make all their titles like this. Or if indeed, this will be a special title to commemorate Daniel Bryan's Championship reign.
