Report: WWE Women's Division Frustrated With Current Booking

There is reportedly frustration amongst WWE's women's roster over the booking of the division, with talents wanting to be on a "more even plane."

That is according to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful. Discussing a question on The Hump that was first asked on the Fightful Select Discord server, Sean Ross Sapp said:

"Somebody asked about women's booking and I said, yes, I have spoken with plenty of women in WWE who are frustrated about the booking of the women. This is not a new thing. It's nowhere near Royal Rumble 2022-level...but there has been a situation where a women's WWE performer has reached out to me and said, 'Dude, can you find out if I'm listed internally as a heel or babyface?' And I'm like, 'Damn, okay.' I know there have been some Mania pitches that have been rejected because people are like token tag matches aren't something that they want to do.

"They want things put on a more even plane in the women's division. The contracts are going up, viewership is adjusted accordingly for when women are on-screen, it's not the sideshow or anything like that, it's a part of the show. You're adding more titles, add more matches, all that stuff. There's a lot of people that have been parked. For example, I'm not going to say Natalya is frustrated, they signed Natalya, they wanted to keep Natalya, they had creative plans for Natalya. And then what's Natalya done since then? Hasn't done anything, hasn't been on NXT, hasn't been doing anything."

Top programmes in the women's division currently include Tiffany Stratton vs. Charlotte Flair for the WWE Women's Championship, while Rhea Ripley's WrestleMania 41 opponent will be decided in the Women's Elimination Chamber Match.

The women's division has expanded in recent months with the introduction of the WWE Women's United States Title and WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship.
