Introduced as the WWE Women's Championship on April 3, 2016, at WrestleMania 32, it replaced the Divas Championship and has a unique title history, separate from WWE's original Women's Championship and the Divas Championship. Charlotte Flair, then known simply as Charlotte, was the inaugural champion. As a result of the 2016 draft, the championship became exclusive to Raw with a subsequent rename and SmackDown created the SmackDown Women's Championship as a counterpart title. The Raw Women's Championship was the first women's title to headline a WWE pay-per-view event at Hell in a Cell in 2016. It also headlined WWE's only all-female event, Evolution in 2018, and, along with the SmackDown Women's Championship, was also defended in the main event match of WWE's flagship event WrestleMania in 2019.
