Ronda Rousey To Defend Raw Women’s Title Against Nia Jax At WWE TLC

The never-ending carousel of pay-per-view events keeps rolling. And with TLC only four weeks away, another slot on the card has been filled.

One night after her brutal encounter with Charlotte at Survivor Series, a visibly bruised Ronda Rousey made her way to the ring. The Raw Women’s Champion wasted no time at all in announcing that Nia Jax would be getting her shot at the title at TLC.

Jax of course won the right to face the champ by claiming victory in the Battle Royal at last month’s Evolution.

For her part, Jax has certainly been keeping herself in the limelight ever since. The former ‘Irresistible Force’ and current – sigh – ‘Facebreaker’ has been dominant in recent weeks, racking up several victories in the process. However, she struggled to establish herself as a credible threat until she came face to face with Becky Lynch last week. Or should that be fist to face with Lynch?

Regardless, Jax will attempt to impose herself on the weakened Rousey at TLC. The final moments of Rousey’s segment on Raw underscored the surefire physicality of the title match. As she made her way back up the ramp, Rousey was confronted by a sinister looking Jax and her cohort, Tamina.

There's just something about @RondaRousey's face…
