Contract Signing for Stratton vs Vaquer at Crown Jewel on SmackDown

WWE added a high-profile segment to Friday Night SmackDown on Oct. 3, confirming that WWE Womens Champion Tiffany Stratton and WWE Womens World Champion Stephanie Vaquer will meet in the ring in Cincinnati to sign the contract for their champion versus champion match at the Crown Jewel premium live event in Perth, Australia. The contract signing makes the cross-brand title bout official with just weeks to go before the international event.

WWE announced the segment as part of a stacked SmackDown card at the Heritage Bank Center. Stratton, who successfully defended the WWE Womens Championship last week in a Triple Threat against Nia Jax and Jade Cargill, and Vaquer, who captured the vacant Womens World Championship by defeating IYO SKY at WrestlePalooza, are scheduled to appear face to face to formalize the matchup. WWE also confirmed other advertised matches and talent on the Oct. 3 show, including a United States title open challenge from Sami Zayn, JeVon Evans appearing backstage after a high-profile outing last week, and a main event pitting Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton against Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.
