They've been keeping Tamina off TV for this specific reason. Going to start it off with a bang. She's still employed? Is she the new JTG?

Not a fan. There's already too many titles. Nobody is asking for more titles

If they really want this to work, they need to beef up the number of women on each show, plus start closing the kayfabe credibility gap between the women at the very top of the card and basically everybody else.
They have enough wrestlers in NXT they can move up, most likely, but time will tell.

I think Becky’s run with the NXT Women's Title showed that a midcard title for the women could easily work for the main roster. There are many women who are not going to get anywhere near the main titles anytime soon for whom this would be something to focus on and help give them the spotlight.
Definitely should not be one on each brand though; have the champion able to appear on both.

It's gonna be Lyra showing up if anything. I mean that would be a lot better and would make more sense. However it feels like Natalya has some sort of clause in her contract where she has to be the first title challenger for every champion. Also they still have a decent amount of time to kill until Rhea comes back. And atm Natalya is probably the #2 face on Raw. Which really shows incredibly weak that roster is right now. I seriously doubt it will be Natalya, or if it is, it will be a RAW defense at best. Clash at the Castle is the next PLE and I would be shocked if Lyra isn't competing for the title there. Admittedly I also feel like Lyra is absolutely dead in the water afterwards, because she has had the rocket strapped to her but has been one of the least interesting women on RAW as well. Not to mention viewing audiences have been kinda hostile towards her going by reactions on social media and engagement stats (pretty much all of her YT videos have nearly a 50/50 split in terms of likes/disliked). She would be a good candidate for the midcard title, but even then there are way more interesting women I would put ahead of her for that one as well.

Yes but can we make it a touch more creative then "Womens IC Title"? Like the NXT Brand got a North American Title for the guys, surely there's another name and belt design we can come up with, especially because I hate the current IC Belt design lol

I want the inaugural champion to "win" the title in a fictitious tournament held in Rio De Janiero.

I want this title to only be decided by verbal debate!

Chelsea Green / Gigi Dolin blood feud over this title would keep me happy.

It's a nice show for equality, but the men and women having all the same belt names and designs except for strap color sure is boring, too.
Surely there's a happy medium between this status quo and the Divas butterfly belt?

Let's just hope the "blood feud" thing doesn't involve Gigi replicating her tampon spot.

“Shrink it and pink it” isn’t the win for equality they think it is.

That's terrible. They need to lose the pink.

I’d assume that’s a proof of concept, not an actual planned belt design?

Tamina's "How are they still here?" longevity has now doubled JTG's at this point. She's even passed Funaki who somehow lasted 12 years for reasons still unknown to this day.

Will always love Tamina so I'm biaaed but I imagine she is winding down now and she is a very well liked member of the locker room so they clearly want to keep her around for morale and she always puts others over when she does wrestle so I'm happy she is still around.
