3 Female wrestlers who were allowed to announce their pregnancy live on Raw 

It's been an interesting few years for WWE since their Divas Division has now become a Women's Division and all female wrestlers are also referred to as Superstars, they have all been treated differently to the point where women recently main evented WrestleMania for the first time.

That doesn't mean that there isn't still a hierarchy of women in the company since there are a handful of female wrestlers who could step in the ring with the like of Ronda Rousey, but there are also a number of women who are still part of the company so that they can be injected into controversial storylines.

This week on Raw, Maria Kanellis proved that she was one of these women when she was brought to the main roster in order to become the third woman to announce that she was pregnant on live TV.

#3. Maria Kanellis

Maria announced that she was expecting a baby earlier this week

Maria Kanellis made a shock appearance on Raw this week where she confirmed that she was once again pregnant in order to avoid having to step in the ring and throw down with Becky Lynch. It's thought that the company is going to allow this storyline to run throughout her pregnancy, but it's unknown if it will be on Raw or 205 Live.

Maria already has a daughter called Fredrica Moon, but she wasn't able to personally announce that she was pregnant with her first child so soon after making her returnt in WWE back in 2017. This time around the company has given Maria more TV time since the star only recently signed a new five-year contract and according to The Wrestling Observer, she waited until after she had signed the deal to inform the company of her pregnancy.

#2. Kharma

Kharma was the first woman to be given the chance to announce her pregnancy live on Raw

Kharma was once the monster that Nia Jax is still trying to be, but back in 2011, the company didn't take the Women's Division seriously so instead she was bullied by The Bella Twins for being overweight.

Kharma wasn't with WWE for very long before she took to the ring and announced that she was expecting her first child. Many believed that this was a storyline, but this was the last time the star was seen in a WWE ring.

It was later revealed that the former star had suffered a miscarriage during her time away and never returned to WWE since she was released from her contract the following year, just months after she made the news public. Kharma currently performs as Awesome Kong as part of All Elite Wrestling.

#1. Maryse

Maryse announced that she was pregnant with her daughter live on Raw

Maryse is married to The Miz but is a former Divas Champion in her own right. The former Diva Seach contestant has recently landed her own show with her husband entitled Miz and Mrs, since the two stars were so well liked as part of Total Divas.

The TV show meant that Maryse was able to announce that she was expecting her first child, Monroe Sky a few years ago on an episode of Monday Night Raw. Sky has since become an integral part of the couple's TV show since it continues to be renewed on a yearly basis.

Most recently she was invited to Elimination Chamber where she was able to announce that she was once again expecting a child. Maryse and Miz confirmed a few weeks ago that they were expecting another baby girl.
