-- WWE unveiled a new women's championship belt last week though didn't provide any news on how the first champion would be determined. It seems we now have our answer as the WrestleVotes X account is reporting that beginning tonight on Friday Night Smackdown, a tournament will begin to crown the inaugural champ. The first match in the tournament will be a Triple Threat bout with Candice LeRae, B-Fab and Bayley doing battle.
Sources indicate a Women’s United States Championship Tournament kicks off tonight on #SmackDown with a first-round Triple Threat Match: Candice LeRae vs. B-Fab vs. Bayley
