On 21 May, at Babes with Power, Sammii Jayne won the vacant championship after defeating Kay Lee Ray in a no disqualification match in the finals of a 16-woman tournament.[2]
On 5 May 2018, EVE held their biggest event to date, Wrestle Queendom, when during the main event, Charlie Morgan defeated Jayne to win the EVE Championship.[3]
