The WWE Women’s World Championship has been vacated after Rhea Ripley suffered a shoulder injury during an attack by Liv Morgan at WrestleMania 40. This marked the end of Ripley’s impressive 379-day reign, which tied her with Bayley for the longest reign in WWE history.
Becky Lynch, the inaugural SmackDown Women’s Champion, emerged victorious in a fierce battle royal match on “Monday Night Raw.” The match featured fifteen women, including Lynch’s former rival Nia Jax. With some strategic teamwork with Liv Morgan, Lynch was able to eliminate Jax and secure the championship.
This victory marked Lynch’s fifth Women’s World Championship win, solidifying her status as a seven-time champion. For Lynch, this victory is a redemption of sorts after her defeat against Ripley at WrestleMania 40. Despite the setback, Lynch’s resilience and skill have led her back to the top of the women’s division in WWE. Her impressive track record as a multiple-time champion showcases her dominance in the ring and solidifies her legacy as one of the top female wrestlers in the industry.
