Stephanie Vaquer's Rise in WWE
Although Vaquer did not compete at WWE Summerslam 2025, she earned her shot at Naomi's title after an impressive performance at Evolution, where she triumphed over 19 competitors in the Battle Royal. This victory included notable names like WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella and former champion Nia Jax.
Since her promotion to the main roster from NXT after WrestleMania 41, Vaquer has been making waves. She quickly qualified for Money in the Bank by defeating Ivy Nile and Liv Morgan, showcasing her talent and determination.
Naomi, on the other hand, capitalized on her Money in the Bank contract to claim the Women’s World Championship, interfering in the main event at Evolution. The Triple Threat Match at Summerslam was her first title defense during her third reign as champion.
