8 Times the women of WWE have made history in 2019 

#3. SmackDown's first-ever full-time female referee

Jessika Carr made history on Friday night

This past week on Friday Night SmackDown, Jessika Carr made history when she refereed the match between Alexa Bliss and Mandy Rose, becoming the Blue Brand's first ever full-time female referee. This is the first match that the former NXT official has overlooked since her move over from the developmental brand a few weeks ago.

Carr originally made history when she debuted as WWE's first full-time female wrestler at the Mae Young Classic back in 2017, but has since been promoted to the main roster and has now made history once again this year.

Carr was a well-liked member of the NXT brand for more than a year and was forced to say goodbye to the brand following the main event between Tommaso Ciampa and Finn Balor two weeks ago on NXT.

The epitome of one door closing, another one opening. Since @WWELadyRefJess’s first day at the @WWEPC, her attitude and work ethic made my job easier. Congrats, Jess! You may be Smackdown now, but remember...#YouAreNXT. #WeAreNXT. pic.twitter.com/bOG4j2ySiU

#2. First-ever women's double Champion

Becky Lynch made history at WrestleMania

Becky Lynch has had a fantastic 2019 as 'The Man,' since she has been able to break down every glass ceiling in WWE. In recent months, Lynch has been able to win the second-annual Women's Royal Rumble, to then go on to compete in the first-ever women's WrestleMania main event where she came out victorious as the first-ever women's dual champion.

Becky picked up both the RAW and SmackDown Women's Championships at WrestleMania when she pinned Ronda Rousey, but later lost the SmackDown title back to Charlotte Flair at Money in the Bank. Flair then quickly lost the title to Bayley when she cashed in the 2019 women's Money in the Bank contract.
