Plans for the SmackDown Women’s Championship match at WrestleMania 36 are all set as per the latest reports. Bayley is the current champion who will remain with the gold until the ‘show of shows’ to defend it against one of the local residents of Florida. It is now reported Naomi is scheduled to receive a title shot against the heel champion at the grandest event of the year.

Naomi vs. SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley is the current lineup for WrestleMania 36, according to what Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Live stated. Previously, the former champion returned to confront Bayley following her Royal Rumble retention against Lacey Evans. It was thought that the feud will be carried forward, right away. Instead, it looks to be on hold for now until Super ShowDown passes by.

However, she will be around the title picture, anyway. As WWE noted, this Friday’s WWE SmackDown episode on FOX will feature Carmella vs. Naomi with a big stipulation attached. The winner will be going on to Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia to challenge Bayley for the women’s championship on February 27. It appears that Carmella vs. Bayley in Saudi Arabia, and then Naomi vs. Bayley at WrestleMania is the current plan.
However, it’s yet to be confirmed by the sources whether Carmella is confirmed to receive another title shot at Super ShowDown. The other two Women’s Title matches from Raw and SmackDown are also reportedly set for WrestleMania 36, as per the recent ongoing.
Charlotte Flair vs. WWE NXT Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley is already confirmed for WrestleMania 36 during the NXT TakeOver: Portland show whereas Shayna Baszler vs. RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch will eventually be set up. Shayna has debuted on the main roster last week by attacking Becky and has now been inserted into the Women’s Elimination Chamber match on March 8th. She is the undisputed favorite to win that bout and then face Lynch at the ‘show of shows.’
Apart from these three matches, a WrestleMania Women’s Battle Royal should also be there on the WrestleMania 36 match card in order to make way for the other superstars on the roster. No confirmations have been received on this contest, to date.
