The winner will take all at WrestleMania 35.
On tonight's episode of WWE Raw, Stephanie McMahon announced that the WrestleMania 35 main event between Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair, and Becky Lynch will now be a "Winner Takes All" bout. Rousey is the current Raw Women's Champion while Charlotte is the SmackDown Women's Champion, having won the belt from Asuka last week on SmackDown.
It's unclear if the titles will be unified or if the winner will simply be a double champion.
