That’s where it starts. There are all kinds of titles recognized by WWE but all of them have one thing in common: they all have to start somewhere. At some point, no matter how long a title has been around, there has to be an inaugural champion. That is what we are going to see in the near future, as WWE has introduced a new championship and a date for a first title match.

Earlier this month, WWE introduced the Women’s United States Title, marking the company’s first midcard title for the women’s division. This week on SmackDown, a tournament was announced to crown the first champion, with the finals being held at Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 14. The tournament will feature four three way matches, with the winners facing off at Saturday Night’s Main Event. So far, Bayley is the only person to qualify for the finals. Here are the other qualifying matches:

Bianca Belair
Chelsea Green
Blair Davenport

Jade Cargill
Michin
Piper Niven

Naomi
Tiffany Stratton
Elektra Lopez

This could be interesting. Check out how Bayley got there, plus some other potential inaugural champions:

Opinion: This is something that has to be done and having the finals on a special show is a good idea. At the end of the day, that is how you make a show feel important and it seems to be working well here, as winning a new title can be rather interesting. Hopefully that is what we are going to get again, as there is quite the selection of options for who wins the title first.
