WWE has a new Womens World Champion.
WWE Wrestlepalooza took place at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana. This was a huge night for the company, and they had quite a womens title match.
On the card, IYO SKY defended the Womens World Championship against Stephanie Vaquer. The match added to the events lineup of title bouts and highlighted the ongoing focus on the Womens World Championship scene.
This match went down like this because Naomi was champion, but she had to vacate her title due to pregnancy. IYO Sky was already slated to face Naomi, and Vaquer won a #1 contender match as well, which set up this match for the championless title.
This match went on third of the night, after the Brons beat the Usos. The contest also received a big fight feel thanks to Alicia Taylors suburb ring introductions.
The two had a back and forth match, and neither of them wanted to give her opponent the upperhand. After all, there was a lot on the line during this match. Fans gave both competitors a ton of respect, as it seemed like some wanted both to win the match.
IYO Sky was able to gain an advantage to send Vaquer out of the ring. Then she hyped up the crowd and nailed a suicide dive. However, Vaquer blocked a powerbomb move from the apron to nail a dive of her own. Fans chanted This Is Awesome at that point as the match continued.
Stephanie Vaquer nailed a snap suplex followed by missing her running knees, so IYO Sky nailed a release German Suplex which was returned by one of her own by Vaquer. That left both wrestlers laid out on the mat.
Vaquer continued, and she went for a Devils Kiss, but IYO Sky blocked it and transitioned into a crossface submission. Stephanie rolled out of it, but then she took a knee to the side of the head. Vaquer blocked an Over The Moonsault, and then she hit a dragon screw on Sky before the former Damage CTRL member fired off with a kick to the head.
IYO went for an Over The Moonsault, but Vaquer got her knees up. Then Vaquer finally nailed the Devils Kiss followed by an SVB for a near fall. The match continued as IYO hit a top rope Spanish Fly, but she couldnt go for the pin. IYO hit a Bullet Train attack, and she went for a second and hit that one as well. Then she hit a running knee to the side of the head before she climbed up for an Over The Moonsault, but Vaquer moved. That gave Stephanie a chance to climb up and hit a Spiral Tap for the win.
Stephanie Vaquer celebrated in Indianapolis as the new WWE Womens World Champion. Vaquer and IYO Sky bowed to each other and hugged. This was a huge moment, and tears were shed as well. Only time will tell who steps up to her next.
