WWE Raw has unveiled new Tag Team Title belts, a day after Sheamus and Cesaro became twin champions at Roadblock.
Red brand General Manager Mick Foley presented Irish star Sheamus and Swiss wrestler Cesaro with the new red-strapped belts following their win over The New Day on Sunday night.
The previous versions of the titles, which had black straps and copper faces, had been in commission since August 2010 when they were presented to then-champions The Hart Dynasty.
Sheamus and Cesaro beat Kofi Kingston and Big E via pinfall at Roadblock to end The New Day's record-breaking 483-day reign with the titles.
Kingston, Big E and Xavier Woods had become the longest reigning Tag Team Champions in WWE history earlier in the week, surpassing Demolition's 478-day stint which had stood since 1989.
However, their time with the belts, which began at SummerSlam 2015 when they dethroned The Prime Time Players, came to a close after Sheamus pinned Kingston.
Sheamus is now a Tag Team Champion for the first time in his WWE career, with Cesaro enjoying a second reign after carrying the titles with Tyson Kidd in early 2015.
Watch WWE Raw, every Monday night (Tuesday morning) at 1am on Sky Sports 5.
