Adam Pearce officially introduces new WWE championship moments before RAW

Adam Pearce made a huge announcement before WWE RAW could begin. He introduced the new Women's Intercontinental Championship.

The WWE women's division has grown leaps and bounds in recent years. Now, the fans view women as more than just eye candy. They are rated on their in-ring skills rather than their looks.

Over the years, the rise of the women's division has been meteoric. Several women, like Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, and Ronda Rousey, have main evented shows like WrestleMania and have been involved in match types like Hell in a Cell, Steel Cage, and many more. Given the evolution of the women's division, WWE introduced a tag team title a few years ago.

The company then doubled down on this growth recently by introducing the new Women's United States Championship. Currently, a tournament is underway to determine who will be the first to hold this new title.

But it looks like the Stamford-based promotion has one more trick up its sleeve for the women's division. WWE Main Event is taped ahead of Monday Night RAW. A fan posted a picture from the taping showing Adam Pearce revealing the new Women's Intercontinental Championship belt.

It will be interesting to see who will be the first to hold the Women's Intercontinental Championship.
