WWE Introduces Women's Speed Tournament Matches

WWE has launched the Women’s Speed Championship tournament, marking a new chapter in its fast-paced wrestling format that has previously focused on male competitors. The tournament will air exclusively on X, with first-round matches featuring notable wrestlers such as IYO SKY vs. Lyra Valkyria and Naomi vs. Blair Davenport. The initiative aims to deliver quick, high-energy matches that last around three minutes, a concept that has already gained traction in the men's division. WWE Chief Content Officer Paul Levesque emphasized the success of the men's matches as a catalyst for introducing women into this exciting format. Fans are eagerly awaiting the inaugural Women's Speed Champion as the tournament progresses. The matches were initially taped during a recent SmackDown event, generating buzz among the wrestling community.
