The Philadelphia Eagles got to celebrate their history-making Super Bowl win on Thursday as they brought their hometown city a parade they’ve been waiting for 52-years to witness. The celebration was packed with costumes, beer, speeches, buses, dancing, and of course, the Eagles’ custom-made WWE Championship.
While the Lombardi trophy is traditionally the prize NFL players flash to their adoring city, Eagles player seemed just as enthusiastic to show off their Championship belt.

Sending a customized championship belt has become one of WWE’s, or at least one of Triple H’s favorite customs. If a team wins any kind big game or tournament, they can expect a freshly made title within the next couple of hours.
The Eagles are most certainly deserving the extra gold as they were mathematical underdogs not just for Sunday’s matchup against the New England Patriots, but in all 3 of their 2018 playoff games.
To quote @ZERTZ_86, youโre “the World Championsโ …. so you need a World Title! Congratulations @Eagles! #SuperBowl #FlyEaglesFly pic.twitter.com/jFmgg8aJNy
