As WWE prepares for WrestleMania 42, the matchup for the WWE Women’s Championship is still undecided, according to Wrestlevotes Radio on Fightful Select. WWE has yet to finalize plans for the SmackDown brand’s women’s title bout, leaving the path to the event in flux.
Current Champion Jade Cargill Prepares for First Televised Defense
Jade Cargill, who has held the Women’s Championship for over 100 days, has not yet defended the title on television. While she made several defenses during WWE’s holiday live event tour, her first televised defense is scheduled against Jordynne Grace on the upcoming episode of WWE SmackDown.
Potential Challengers Remain Under Consideration
Among the names discussed for the WrestleMania title match are Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton. Stratton, who lost the title to Cargill at November’s Saturday Night’s Main Event, recently returned at the women’s Royal Rumble and advanced to the final two before being eliminated by Liv Morgan. WWE continues to explore various options for the pairing that will headline the event.
