*Potential SPOILERS* Rumored WrestleMania match

[Chris]

From Meltzer:

Spoiler

Charlotte Flair vs. Ronda Rousey is slated to be one of the key matches for WWE WrestleMania 38 in Dallas, Texas.

Most likely, the angle to set things in motion will take place at Saturday's WWE Royal Rumble, either during or after the Rumble match. Flair, the current SmackDown Women's Champion, is in the match.

Rousey's entourage was already in St. Louis, Missouri, yesterday and there is talk of her appearing on Monday's Raw.

Rousey is back in WWE for a substantial run and not just for the Rumble and WrestleMania. She will be part of SmackDown, although she may appear on Raw shows at times to help boost ratings.

Her being on Smackdown is to throw a major bone to Fox which had hoped for both Rousey and Brock Lesnar to be regulars on the show. The deal, which is in excess of one year, includes major matches at both this year's WrestleMania and next year's WrestleMania at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA.

Rousey vs. Raw Women's Champion Becky Lynch was discussed and actually made the most sense, but the decision was made to put Rousey on SmackDown. That would make Rousey vs. Lynch the favorite for next year's WrestleMania.

This would be Flair and Rousey's second singles match as they wrestled at the 2019 Survivor Series, a match Rousey won by DQ.

Wrong champion

Had zero desire for Ronda/Becky but they could have at least got me interested in it. Ronda/Charlotte is a total no fucks given

Hopefully it's true though so that the Bianca redemption angle against Becky happens.

 

[Deezy]

I'd rather see Ronda break Becky's arm tbh

this bumbling fuckwit was saying Ronda vs Becky and Charlotte vs Sasha the other day. Christ.

Ronda is the biggest draw(sorry Queen) but I really wasn’t racking my brain trying to figure out how to get her on the Mania card.

True but mate he was basically saying signed sealed and delivered just 2 days back. He’s guessing and pissing it off as news. Bloke shits me.

As much as we all love to shit on WWE for "plans change" this really does generally feel like Dave Meltzer's classical "I'm speculating based on obvious predictions" tbf.

Keep stroking that hate boner lads!

Whatever gets you through the day, man.

 

[Comrade Khan]

Hey now, I'm encouraging you two to keep at it! No need to take stuff like that too seriously, it's just a dude with a newsletter after all!

 

[Comrade Khan]

Back on topic, if they do this instead of Becky Ronda at mania it would be classic wwe but also please no

 

[Barry Poppins]

Personally I'd rather have heel Ronda with Bianca Belair taking her out.

In fairness WWE has been wanting to do this match since Becky got over. Becky got in the way so now that she’s on the other brand, now they can push this match to the moon even though nobody really wants it.
