Chelsea Green comments on the possibility of a secondary women's title.
Late on July 6, PWN reported that there were Women's United States and Intercontinental Titles in the works, which would represent each brand. Fightful had not heard that it's a definite as of yet, but in the hours that have followed, we did confirm via a number of sources in the company that the titles have been discussed.
Appearing on The Masked Man show, Chelsea Green was asked about the possibility of a secondary title for the women.
"I don't know if it's been confirmed because I don't know it. I only saw it on the internet. Whatever you guys are reading, I'm also reading too. Of course, I'm hoping and praying that's true. Any more spotlights the women can get would be amazing. I do think it's long overdue. It's another step in the right direction. I didn't even think this could happen two years ago. Now, I'm like, 'Of course it's happening.' It has to happen, now that it's on the internet, we need this to happen. Obviously, I think it would be amazing to showcase the women that could be champions in the future but maybe we don't see them in that light right now. Maybe we see them as floaters or maybe they haven't locked down their character or maybe they are a funny girl. Maybe me [laughs]. There are all these women where, we have so much talent and we're not able to showcase it all the time. Putting another title in the mix would just up the ante for that mid-level girl who, we know we can elevate them, we know they can get there, but maybe the fans don't believe in them yet. Maybe they need that championship to showcase that they can lead a division. If this comes to fruition, it will be a game-changer for the women's locker room on Raw and SmackDown," she said.
NXT introduced the NXT Women's North American Championship earlier this year, giving the women a secondary title on the brand.
Fightful will update fans when more is known about potential secondary titles on the main roster.
