On the Aug 18, 2025, episode of WWE Raw, Naomi confirmed her pregnancy with Jimmy Uso's baby and relinquished her world title. Naomi's unavailability has hampered the plans of two world title matches against Iyo Sky and Stephanie Vaquer, respectively. They are two of the most favorites to win the world title, along with Roxanne Perez and a few others.

After her successful cash-in at Evolution, Naomi moved to WWE Raw and defended her title at SummerSlam against Iyo and Rhea. She was set to defend her title against Iyo on Raw and Vaquer at Clash in Paris. Hence, these two are likely to fight against each other for the world title at Clash in Paris.

Vauquer is currently not having any major feud. However, on the other hand, Iyo is having a tough time with Rhea, Kabuki Warriors, and the duo of Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez. Among them, the Kabuki Warriors and Raquel are unlikely to be in the world title scenario.

Stephanie Vaquer, Iyo Sky, or Roxanne Perez: Who has better chances of becoming the world champion?

Roxanne is not even half a year into her main roster groove. However, she had a great run as the NXT Women's Champion, which also makes a case for her early world title run. While Mami is one of the best options to hold the title again, she has been in scenario for quite a while now.
