Ronda Rousey has argued that she doesn’t need to hold another WWE championship, noting that she’s enjoying her current non-title storyline.
Rousey has held both the Raw and SmackDown women’s titles during her time with WWE, most recently winning the SmackDown Women’s Championship from Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania Backlash in May.
The former UFC star dropped the gold to Liv Morgan at Money in the Bank, after Morgan cashed in her contract following Rousey’s title defence against Natalya. Morgan pinned Rousey in their title rematch at SummerSlam in a controversial finish.
During a gaming stream, Rousey reasoned that the likes of Roddy Piper had great runs without WWE gold.
When asked whether she thinks she’ll hold a WWE title again, Rousey said:
“I mean, definitely I guess but also, I feel like I don’t need it. I’ve been liking my non-title run because Roddy Piper never really needed the titles to make him great, you know?
“And I enjoy not having all my stories be dependent on the title and also, just having more storylines out there for the women so, everything for the women almost always involves the title and a lot of the men have non-title storylines all the time and so, I am happy to take some non-title storylines to just give more storylines to the women total, you know?”
Rousey hasn’t wrestled on TV since SummerSlam, but has appeared in segments on SmackDown. A previous report indicated that WWE wants to make Rousey a special attraction star, similar to Brock Lesnar.
