WWE RAW: Jimmy Uso And Naomi Announces Pregnancy, Relinquishes Women’s World Title
This week’s episode of WWE RAW was an emotional one as Women’s World Champion Naomi made a life-changing announcement in front of the WWE Universe. Standing in the middle of the ring, Naomi revealed that she and her husband, Jimmy Uso, are expecting their first child together.
The revelation, first discussed on an unaired episode of What’s Your Story? with Stephanie McMahon, was met with thunderous applause from fans in attendance. Naomi, visibly moved, spoke about the significance of the moment and thanked the crowd for their support.
However, her announcement also came with a tough decision – Naomi officially relinquished the Women’s World Championship, declaring that while she will be stepping away from competition, her journey inside the squared circle is far from over.
“The RAW women’s roster only has nine months and change before I’m back to regain what’s rightfully mine,” Naomi said, leaving fans buzzing with excitement for her eventual comeback.
Jimmy Uso Jokes About Baby Names
On the What’s Your Story? podcast, Jimmy Uso shed more light on the couple’s journey into parenthood. He revealed that Stephanie McMahon had offered them one important piece of advice: never share the baby’s name before the birth, as people’s opinions could affect their feelings about it.
Jimmy, always the joker, admitted he plans to throw people off with false names just to gauge their reactions. With a laugh, he revealed one of his go-to choices:
“I’m going to just start throwing out false names. Papa Shango. You’re asking me no more what you’re naming your kid. I can’t wait though. It’s been a while we thought about names and stuff.”
For fans unfamiliar, Papa Shango was a memorable voodoo-inspired character portrayed by WWE Hall of Famer The Godfather in the early 1990s. Clearly, Jimmy was joking, but it added a lighthearted touch to an otherwise emotional week for the couple.
What’s Next for WWE’s Women’s Division?
With Naomi stepping away, WWE will now need to determine who will carry the mantle as the next Women’s World Champion. Whether through a tournament, battle royal, or a high-stakes singles match, the RAW women’s division suddenly finds itself wide open and highly competitive.
Naomi’s absence will surely be felt, but her promise to return stronger than ever ensures that the WWE Universe already has one eye on her comeback. Until then, the focus shifts to which Superstar will seize the opportunity and rise to the top in her place.
