The Women's World Championship is the pinnacle of women's wrestling on Monday Night RAW. Dominated by Rhea Ripley's historic reign from WrestleMania 39, the title has become the most prestigious prize in women's professional wrestling. In 2026, the race to hold this belt at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas is the most compelling story in the women's division.

The Women's Division in 2026
Rhea Ripley — The Standard
Rhea Ripley's first Women's World Championship reign — nearly 500 days — set the benchmark for what a modern women's title run looks like. Dominant defenses, compelling promos, physical in-ring storytelling. Mami is the measuring stick for the division.
Becky Lynch's Return
Becky Lynch's return to Monday Night RAW reinjected star power into the women's division. The Man's history with the Women's World Championship — and her claim on the title scene — makes her the natural challenger heading into WrestleMania season.
Tiffany Stratton's Rise
Tiffany Stratton's Money in the Bank cash-in vaulted her into the title conversation. The Tiffy Time era showed WWE has the next generation ready — and her crowd-work, athleticism, and character positioning her as a future multi-time champion.
IYO SKY's Faction
IYO SKY's Damage CTRL connection and incredible in-ring ability keep her in the Women's World Championship picture. Her high-flying style creates unforgettable WrestleMania moments — the kind that cement legacies in Las Vegas.
Bayley's Veteran Claim
Bayley remains one of the most complete performers in women's wrestling — selling, storytelling, character consistency. Her place in the Women's World Championship picture in 2026 is earned through a decade of elite-level work.
Liv Morgan's Shock Reign
Liv Morgan's SummerSlam 2024 cash-in win was the most surprising moment of the women's division in years. Her heel turn, the Dominik Mysterio storyline, and unexpected title defense run proved that the Women's World Championship creates stars.
