First participants set in upcoming match to determine new WWE ID Women’s Champion

The first five participants in a match to crown the next WWE ID Women’s Champion have been announced.

On social media Sunday, WWE ID announced five of the six participants in an upcoming six-way match that will take place at a Wrestling Open RI event November 17 in Cranston, Rhode Island. A multi-person one fall match will open the show to determine the sixth and final spot.

The participants include Shannon Levangie from Chaotic Wrestling, Airica Demia from Palmetto Championship Wrestling, Tiara James from MCW, Notorious Mimi from the Monster Factory and Worldwide Dojo, and Brittnie Brooks from FSW Vegas and Dreamwave Wrestling, who is also the girlfriend of TNA star Chris Bey.

Back in September, WWE declared the title vacant after first-ever champion Kylie Rae announced she was pregnant. One month later, Rae announced on social media that her ID contract was not being renewed.

The first WWE ID champions were crowned back in August at a GCW event. Cappuccino Jones defeated Jack Cartwheel to become the first ever men’s champion, a title he holds to this day.

WWE ID provides update on status of Women’s Championship

The status of the WWE Women’s ID Championship has become clear.

WWE ID announced on Monday that the title is now vacated after champion Kylie Rae announced over the weekend that she was pregnant. 

“The WWE ID Women’s Championship is now vacant,” they wrote on social media. “WWE ID is proud that Kylie Rae will go in the record books as the first ever champion and sends congratulations on the addition to her family. Thank you, Kylie!”

Rae announced her pregnancy when a fan asked why she recently had to vacate another championship on the independent scene, showing off a picture of her baby bump.

This will be Rae’s second child with independent wrestler Isais Velazquez, previously gave birth back in October of 2023. A year later, she signed with WWE’s ID program, becoming the first WWE ID Women’s Champion back on August 1 at a GCW event defeating Zara Zakher and Zayda Steel in a tournament final triple threat match.
