Stephanie McMahon presents a custom WWE Women's Championship to the Chicago Sky WNBA team following their Championship victory.
As is tradition whenever a championship game reaches its conclusion in any sport, WWE has sent out a custom Women's Championship to the Chicago Sky to celebrate their first-ever WNBA Championship victory, which they earned by coming back from a 14-point deficit in the second half to defeat the Phoenix Mercury.
Candace Parker, who was one of the names singled out by Stephanie McMahon in her tweet congratulating the Chicago Sky, had 16 points and 13 rebounds, on top of four steals and five assists. Kahleah Copper went on to be named the MVP of the final game and was also mentioned in the tweet by Stephanie McMahon.
Every champion deserves some bling! Proud to present this custom @WWE title to @Candace_Parker, @kahleahcopper, and the @chicagosky to commemorate their #WNBAFinals victory. #SKYTOWN pic.twitter.com/8MRC4efNeg
