WWE Superstar Naomi Announces Pregnancy, Relinquishes Women’s World Championship
The electrifying atmosphere of Monday Night Raw was replaced with an emotional, heartfelt moment as WWE Superstar Naomi announced her pregnancy and, with a heavy heart, relinquished her Women’s World Championship. The news, which broke on the live broadcast, marks a new, deeply personal chapter for the decorated athlete and her husband, fellow wrestler Jimmy Uso.
The segment began with a surprise video clip from a new podcast hosted by Stephanie McMahon, where Naomi and Jimmy Uso shared their happy news. “There is a baby on board! We are all the way pregnant!” a visibly emotional Jimmy Uso declared. Naomi, whose real name is Trinity Fatu, added that after years of fertility challenges and prayers, she was “having a baby.” The Philadelphia crowd erupted in a mix of tears and cheers, showing their support for the couple.
Later in the ring, with the championship belt slung over her shoulder, Naomi explained that while the title was a dream come true, her pregnancy was a long-awaited blessing. She made it clear that this was not a farewell but a “see you later.” In a powerful statement, she said that she was “going to give you nine months and change,” and promised to return to “pick up where [she] left off.” Unlike a standard title relinquishment, Naomi refused to hand the belt to General Manager Adam Pearce. Instead, she laid the title in the center of the ring, a gesture that signaled to the other female superstars that they would have to battle for the championship.
This news comes at the peak of Naomi’s career. Just weeks ago, she delivered a standout performance at SummerSlam, successfully defending her title in a Triple Threat match against Iyo Sky and Rhea Ripley. That momentum has now shifted from the ring to her personal life, and while fans are disappointed to see her go, there is a wave of support and celebration for her and her husband.
For WWE, the focus now shifts to how the company will fill the void left by its top female champion. The vacant title creates an opportunity for new rivalries and rising stars to emerge, setting the stage for a new and unpredictable storyline. However, one thing is certain: fans will be eagerly awaiting the day that the former champion makes her triumphant return, ready to once again “feel the glow” and reclaim her spot at the top of the mountain.
