A new WWE champion is being crowned finally, after it was forced to be vacated all of a sudden. The title is now going to go to a new star, with the company making an announcement.
Kylie Rae had to give up her WWE Women's ID Championship very suddenly less than two months after she won it. She became the new champion in a match on GCW: The ID Showcase, defeating Zara Zakher and Zayda Steel in a tournament final triple threat match to become the first-ever champion. Unfortunately, her reign with the title was not overly long, and after she became pregnant, she had to give the title up with her going on maternity leave. She ended up being cut as well.
Now, a new champion will be crowned as per an announcement by WWE. The company put out the breaking news on social media, sharing that the winner would be crowned on November 17 at Wrestling Open RI. Whoever wins the title, will become ID'd by the company as well, as the winner of the title gets an immediate contract with the company.
