Much as Asuka did on SmackDown with the Raw Women’s Championship, Rhea Ripley has traded in her SmackDown Women’s Title for a new belt. Asuka is now the WWE Women’s Champion while Ripley is the Women’s World Champion. Both titles seem to continue the lineage of the belts they replaced.
To begin Raw, Adam Pearce presented the new belt to Ripley. It is the same as the current men’s World Heavyweight Title held by Seth Rollins. That is except it has the white belt.
Unlike with Asuka, Pearce did not put the gold around the waist of Ripley as Dominik Mysterio rushed to the ring to do it himself. The segment then turned towards Cody Rhodes coming out. He gave respect to Ripley but challenged Dominik to a match at Money in the Bank.
