Tonight @SerenaDeeb derailed the La Mera Mera Destruction Tour to become the new World Women's Champ.
She certainly earned this after the battle with @thunderrosa22! pic.twitter.com/gdf6m7O5Gc
Serena Deeb defeated Thunder Rosa to win the NWA Women's Championship on tonight's United Wrestling Network Primetime Live PPV.
The win represents an incredible turnaround for Deeb, who had been all but retired after taking a Coaching position at the WWE Performance Center. Deeb returned to the ring as a full-time competitor after being released as part of WWE's cutbacks this past April. She has signed with All Elite Wrestling and the title win marks another milestone in that comeback run.
We are told that Rosa remains under contract to the NWA, so this is not a situation where her leaving for another company precipitated the title switch.
We are also told that you can expect to see the NWA Women's title continue to be represented on AEW Dynamite.
