On December 18, 2017, Stephanie McMahon appeared at the conclusion of Raw. After the match between Bayley, Sasha Banks, and Mickie James against Absolution, other Raw women’s talent would approach the ring and compete against each other.

Stephanie McMahon would then approach the ring and make the announcement of the Royal Rumble pay-per-view now including a first-ever women’s Royal Rumble match. The women in the ring would then embrace, and give “Yes!” chants to end the show.

You can relive this moment below.

Stephanie would continue to hype the women’s Royal Rumble by making another announcement today.

“Announcing the first-ever women’s Royal Rumble match was one of my all-time favorite moments in WWE… And now I’m proud to share that I’ll be joining the Announce team for this historic match this Sunday!”
