Notes
1. Defeated Alexa Bliss, Carmella, Naomi, Natalya, and Nikki Bella in a six-pack elimination challenge to become the inaugural champion. WWE recognizes Lynch's reign as lasting 85 days.
2. This was a tables match.
- The championship was vacated due to Naomi suffering a knee injury, and not being able to defend the title within 30 days.
4. Defeated Becky Lynch to win the vacant title. WWE recognizes Bliss' reign as lasting 41 days.
5. This was a six-pack challenge, also involving Becky Lynch, Carmella, Mickie James, and Natalya.
8 Cashed in her Money in the Bank contract. This was the first time a women's title changed hands after a Money in the Bank contract cash-in.
9 This was a triple threat match, also involving Becky Lynch, who Flair pinned to win the championship.
11 This was a triple threat Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match, also involving Charlotte Flair.
13 This was a winner takes all triple threat match for both the Raw Women's Championship and SmackDown Women's Championship, also involving Ronda Rousey, who defended the Raw Women's Championship. Lynch pinned Rousey to win both titles.
15 Cashed in her Money in the Bank contract.
18 This was a Hell in a Cell match.
20 Bianca Belair was originally scheduled to defend the title against Sasha Banks; however, before the match began, it was announced that Banks was unable to compete for undisclosed reasons. Carmella was then announced as her new opponent, but Lynch made a surprise return from maternity leave, took out Carmella, and challenged Belair to an impromptu match that Belair accepted.
21 As a result of the 2021 WWE Draft, then Raw Women's Champion, Charlotte Flair was drafted to SmackDown while Becky Lynch was drafted to Raw. To keep the titles to their respective brands, WWE official Sonya Deville had the two women exchange championships.
22 This was an "I Quit" match.
23 This was Morgan's Money in the Bank cash-in match. Morgan was a member of the Raw roster prior to the cash-in. She was transferred to the SmackDown brand after winning the championship.
24 This was an Extreme Rules match.
26 Ripley won the championship as a member of the Raw brand, but the title did not officially switch to Raw until the 2023 WWE Draft. It was subsequently renamed as the Women's World Championship on the June 12, 2023, episode of Raw.
