This came after several of WIW's female wrestlers had viewed the Diva term as a negative as they felt it diminished their role in the company to "eye candy" rather than as athletes. She then announced that the winner of the Triple Threat Elimination match between Ashley Holshue, Emily Marie and Brandi Cusker later that night would become the first-ever champion. Kaila Matteson became the inaugural champion on April 3, 2016 after cashing in her Money in the Bank contract during the triple threat match.
