Ronda Rousey made her triumphant return to WWE in the 2022 Women’s Royal Rumble Match and won.
Rousey is one of the most polarizing mainstream stars in the world and instantly brings a ton of interest to the company. The Rowdy One will likely move on to headline WrestleMania 38 in April.
With her return creating a lot of buzz, it begs to wonder who else will square off with the UFC Hall of Famer.
Rousey’s first stint in WWE saw her face the likes of Bayley, Sasha Banks and Nia Jax. After a three-year absence, there are a multitude of old and new opponents that could face the former Raw Women’s Champion.
Here are the five Ronda Rousey matches we need to see in 2022.
5. Ronda Rousey vs. Bianca Belair
When Ronda Rousey was last active in WWE, Bianca Belair was working her way through the ranks of NXT.
Since Ronda’s departure, Belair has to be viewed as the breakout superstar of the women’s division.
The EST of WWE won the 2021 Women’s Royal Rumble and went on to defeat Sasha Banks to win the SmackDown Women’s Championship at WrestleMania 37.
A showdown between the last two Rumble winners would present an intriguing contest.
The MMA background and relentlessness of Rousey would mesh well with the strength and athleticism of Belair. This has WrestleMania headliner written all over it.
