The NXT Women's Championship is a women's professional wrestling championship created and promoted by the American promotion WWE. It is defended on NXT, the promotion's developmental brand. The current champion is Roxanne Perez, who is in her record-tying second reign. She won the title by defeating Lyra Valkyria at Stand & Deliver on April 6, 2024.
Introduced on April 5, 2013, the inaugural champion was Paige. In September 2019, the promotion began promoting NXT as its "third main brand" when the NXT television program was moved to the USA Network. Two years later, however, NXT reverted to its original function as WWE's developmental brand. To date, it has been the only NXT championship to be selected by a Royal Rumble match winner, which occurred in 2020, subsequently being the only NXT championship to be defended at a WrestleMania, which occurred at that year's WrestleMania 36. In September 2022, the NXT UK Women's Championship was unified into the NXT Women's Championship.
