The women’s division just got stronger on SmackDown.
Toward the closing stages of the show before Solo Sikoa’s Undisputed Tribal Chief Acknowledgment Ceremony on SmackDown, general manager Nick Aldis shared a historic announcement with the fans.
In 2019, the Stamford-based promotion made history when it launched the Women’s Tag-Team Championship. Now, after years of rumors and demands, the women’s division finally has a secondary championship.
During the 8th November episode of the blue brand at the KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York, Nick Aldis announced the launch of a women’s United States Championship in a backstage segment. Soon after Chief Content Officer, Triple H also shared his thoughts on the new title on x (Twitter).
The women of WWE continue to show that they are the very best in the business. The Women’s United States Championship will showcase their continued effort. So, who’s going to step up and take it?
The promotion is yet to announce the competitors for this new women’s championship.
We will keep sharing more details on the new title as we hear more about it.
