WWE Women’s World Title Match Set for Clash in Paris—Stephanie Vaquer Issues Bold Challenge to Naomi
The Road to Paris Heats Up — Vaquer Challenges Naomi After SummerSlam Triumph
The WWE Women’s World Championship picture just got a whole lot more interesting — and international.
Fresh off her electric victory in a high-stakes triple-threat match at WWE SummerSlam 2025 Night 2, Naomi stood tall after outlasting both Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky in a chaotic opening bout that set the tone for the evening. But while she was celebrating, another former champion had her eyes locked on the prize.
In a surprise post-match development, WWE released a special video message from Stephanie Vaquer, the acclaimed in-ring technician and former NXT Women’s and Women’s Tag Team Champion. Speaking with confidence and respect, Vaquer congratulated Naomi on defending the gold under the bright lights of SummerSlam — but made it crystal clear she’s coming for that same gold next.
“You proved yourself at SummerSlam,” Vaquer said in the video. “Now prove yourself against me — at Clash in Paris.” - Stephanie Vaquer

🗣️ Wrestling.News | Backstage Take
Vaquer calling for a title shot isn't just about the WWE Women's Champion, this is a personal message to Naomi. Stephanie completely dominated the women's division in NXT and was quietly building one of the most respected in-ring resumes in WWE, Vaquer's elevation to the Women's World Championship picture is long overdue, and she demands her time in the spotlight. At the same time, Naomi just barely clawed her way back to the top of the mountain in the women's division in WWE and she isn't looking to let go of the title anytime soon.
