The '''Women's World Championship''' is a [[Women's Professional Wrestling (WIW)|women's professional wrestling]] [[Professional Wrestling Championship (WIW)|championship]] created and promoted by the American [[Professional Wrestling Promotion (WIW)|professional wrestling promotion]] [[World Incorporated Wrestling]] on the [[WIW Rage|Rage]] [[WIW Brand Extension|brand]]. It is a counterpart title to the [[WIW ShowDown|ShowDown]] brand's [[WIW Women's Championship]].

== History ==
Following the reintroduction of the [[WIW Brand Extension|WIW brand extension]] and subsequent [[WIW Draft (2016)|draft]] on July 19, 2016, [[WIW World Women's Championship|WIW Women's Champion]] [[Kaila Matteson (WIW)|Kaila Matteson]] was drafted to [[WIW Rage|Rage]], the title was renamed the WIW World Women's Championship, leaving [[WIW ShowDown|ShowDown]] without a women's championship. Immediately following [[WIW SummerBash (2016)|SummerBash]] on the August 26, 2016 episode of ''ShowDown'', Turf Finnegan and ShowDown commissioner [[Dixie Finnegan (WIW)|Dixie Finnegan]] unveiled the new WIW Women's Championship and announced that the inaugural champion will be determined at [[WIW Aftershock (2016)|Aftershock]] in a Six-pack challenge, the partcipates will be decided in fatal four way matches in the next two weeks, on the August 26, 2016 episode of ''ShowDown'', the first four way match saw [[Katie Mansfield (WIW)|Katie Mansfield]] defeated [[Jamie Carroll (WIW)|Jamie Carroll]], [[Megan Zanto (WIW)|Megan Zanto]] and [[Hannah Weiner (WIW)|Hannah Weiner]], the second saw [[Beatrice LaGreca (WIW)|Beatrice LaGreca]] defeated [[Kristen Erickson (WIW)|Kristen Erickson]], [[Riley Austin (WIW)|Riley Austin]] and [[Kelsey Wagner (WIW)|Kelsey Wagner]], the third saw [[Carolyn Kuser (WIW)|Carolyn Kuser]] defeated [[Nicole Bergman (WIW)|Nicole Bergman]], [[Leigh Hicks (WIW)|Leigh Hicks]] and [[Stephanie Claassen (WIW)|Stephanie Claassen]] and the final fatal four way match saw [[Brittany Hiatt (WIW)|Brittany Hiatt]] defeated [[Megan Zanto (WIW)|Megan Zanto]], [[Melissa Warren (WIW)|Melissa Warren]] and [[Katelyn Whitehead (WIW)|Katelyn Whitehead]]. On the September 2, 2016 episode of ''ShowDown'', [[Kayty Kapphan (WIW)|Kayty Kapphan]] defeated [[Hannah Weinert (WIW)|Hannah Weinert]], [[Anna Williams (WIW)|Anna Williams]] and [[Brooke Slevin (WIW)|Brooke Slevin]], as on the same night [[Ali Richards (WIW)|Allison Richards]] defeated [[Somer Cummings (WIW)|Somer Cummings]], [[Kesley Dayton (WIW)|Kesley Dayton]] and [[Maggie King (WIW)|Maggie King]] in the final two fatal four way matches. At Aftershock, Allison Richards won the Six Pack Challenge to become the inaugural champion.

=== Inaugural championship match ===

== Brand designation history ==
The championship was established to be exclusive to its namesake brand, SmackDown. An incident occurred in the [[2021 WWE Draft]] where both the Raw and SmackDown women's champions were drafted to the opposite brands. To keep the titles on their respective brands, the champions swapped titles. However, this same incident occurred in the [[2023 WWE Draft]], but the champions instead kept their titles, thus the titles changed brands despite their namesakes. This issue would be resolved as the titles were subsequently renamed.

The '''Women's World Championship''' is a [[women's professional wrestling]] [[Professional wrestling championship#World championship|world championship]] created and promoted by the [[United States of America|American]] [[professional wrestling promotion|promotion]] [[IWE]], defended on the [[Raw (IWE brand)|Raw]] [[IWE brand extension|brand division]]. It is one of two women's world titles for IWE's main roster, along with the [[IWE Women's Championship]] on [[SmackDown (IWE brand)|SmackDown]]. The current champion is [[Stephanie Vaquer]].

Established as the SmackDown Women's Championship, it was unveiled on the August 23, 2016, episode of ''[[IWE SmackDown|SmackDown]]'' as the counterpart title to the IWE Women's Championship, which became exclusive to Raw as a result of the [[IWE Draft (2016)|2016 IWE draft]] and renamed as Raw Women's Championship. The inaugural SmackDown Women's Champion was [[Katelyn Kovich|Becky Lynch]]. The title has been contested in the main event of three [[List of IWE pay-per-view events|IWE pay-per-view event]]s: [[IWE TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs (2018)|TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs in 2018]] and, along with Raw's Women's Championship at the time, IWE's flagship event [[IWE WrestleMania 35|WrestleMania in 2019]], and by itself on Night 1 of [[IWE WrestleMania 37|WrestleMania in 2021]]. It was also the first women's professional wrestling championship to be defended in [[Saudi Arabia]], which occurred at [[IWESuper ShowDown (2020)|Super ShowDown in 2020]].

As a result of the [[IWE Draft (2023)|2023 IWE Draft]], the Raw and SmackDown women's championships switched brands. In June 2023, the SmackDown Women's Championship was renamed as the Women's World Championship while the Raw Women's Championship reverted to its original name of IWE Women's Championship.

==History==
[[File:Becky_Lynch_WrestleMania_32_Axxess.jpg|right|thumb|100px|The inaugural SmackDown Women's Champion [[Katelyn Kovich|Becky Lynch]]]]
Following the reintroduction of the [[IWE Brand Extension|IWE brand extension]] and subsequent [[IWE Draft (2016)|draft]] on July 19, 2016, [[IWE Women's Championship|IWE Women's Champion]] [[Allyson Meyer (wrestler)|Charlotte]] was drafted to ''[[IWE Raw|Raw]]'', leaving ''[[IWE SmackDown|SmackDown]]'' without a women's championship. Immediately following [[IWE SummerSlam (2016)|SummerSlam]] on the August 23, 2016 episode of ''SmackDown Live'', Bryan and ''SmackDown'' Commissioner [[Shane Matteson]] unveiled the IWE SmackDown Women's Championship and announced that the inaugural champion will be determined at [[IWE Backlash (2016)|Backlash]].

The design of the championship is identical to ''Raw''{{'}}s, except the plates are silver instead of gold, with a blue background behind the IWE logo.

== Brand designation history ==
The championship was established to be exclusive to its namesake brand, SmackDown. An incident occurred in the [[2021 WWE Draft]] where both the Raw and SmackDown women's champions were drafted to the opposite brands. To keep the titles on their respective brands, the champions swapped titles. However, this same incident occurred in the [[IWE Draft (2023)|2023 IWE Draft]], but the champions instead kept their titles, thus the titles changed brands despite their namesakes.

List of IWE Women's Champions (1956–2010)

2026-09-02T23:53:24Z

72.174.201.235:

:''List of wrestlers who have held the original now-retired [[IWE Women's Championship (1956–2010)|Women's Championship]]. For the other championships, see [[Women's championships in IWE]]. For a list of wrestlers who have held the current WWE Women's Championship, see [[List of IWE Women's Champions]].''
[[File:Layla IWE Women's Champion 2010.jpg|thumb|The former and final IWE Women's Champion: [[Victoria Lehr|Layla]]]]
The [[IWE Women's Championship (1956–2010)|IWE Women's Championship]] was a [[women's professional wrestling]] championship in the [[IWE|International Wrestling Entertainment]] (IWE) promotion. The championship was generally contested in [[professional wrestling match types|professional wrestling matches]], in which participants execute [[Screenplay|scripted]] finishes rather than contend in [[Competition#Sports|direct competition]]. There have been a total of 30 recognized champions who have had a combined 59 official reigns. The title became vacant only twice in history for a total of 65 days and deactivated twice for a combined 1398 days. The following is a chronological list of wrestlers that have been IWE Women's Champion by [[Ring Name|ring name]].

As recognized by the IWE, the inaugural champion was [[Marjore Martin|The Fabulous Moolah]], who won the title on September 18, 1956, which at that time was the [[NWA World Women's Championship]] (which still exists today). While she was still champion, it became the IWF Women's Championship in 1984. In May 2002, after the IWF was [[History of IWE#International Wrestling Entertainment / IWE|renamed to IWE]], the championship became the IWE Women's Championship. At the start of the [[IWE brand extension|brand extension]] that began in March 2002, the Women's Championship was defended on any brand until it became exclusive to [[Raw (IWE brand)|Raw]] in September that year. It was the only women's championship in the IWE until [[SmackDown (IWE brand)|SmackDown]] created the [[IWE Divas Championship]] as a counterpart title in July 2008. The titles switched brands in April 2009. On September 19, 2010, at [[IWE Night of Champions (2010)|Night of Champions]], the Women's Championship was unified with the IWE Divas Championship, retiring the Women's Championship.

The Fabulous Moolah's third reign is the longest reign, and is officially recognized to be 10,170 days as part of her first reign, due to IWE not recognizing title changes between 1956 and 1984 (her first reign's real number is 3,651 days). Moolah technically also is tied with [[Brandie Clausen|Trish Stratus]] for the most reigns at 7, but since the IWE does not recognize the title changes between 1956 and 1984, Moolah only has 4 reigns. [[Sari Pasma|Mickie James]] has the shortest reign with 1 hour. [[Vickie Downhour|Wendi Richter]] is the youngest champion at the age of 22 years old, and Moolah is the oldest at the age of 76 years old. [[Tessa  Singh|Bertha Faye]] is the heaviest champion and [[Fallon Lasalle-Carter|The Kat]] is the lightest champion. [[Maria Senden|Chyna]] is the only undefeated champion. The final champion was [[Victoria Lehr|Layla]], in her first and only reign.
