WWE has introduced a new Women’s United States Championship after years of discussion from wrestlers and fans alike about a secondary women’s title on the main roster. Raw and SmackDown roster members are eligible to challenge for the Women’s US belt.
WWE has made major strides in elevating its women’s division for the last decade after pushing its female stars as Divas. NXT was already a step ahead of WWE in this respect, with an NXT Women’s Champion and an NXT Women’s North American Champion.
The introduction of secondary titles for female superstars could bring greater depth, more storylines, and additional title opportunities to the women’s roster, giving a platform to more wrestlers outside the main title picture.
WWE/NXT Women’s Championships
With the addition of the United States title, there are now seven sanctioned women’s championships in WWE and NXT.
- Women’s World Championship: Liv Morgan
- WWE Women’s Championship: Nia Jax
- WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship: Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill
- WWE Women’s United States Championship
