Since relinquishing the SmackDown Women’s Championship to Charlotte Flair in December 2019, Ronda Rousey has been heavily focused on the women’s tag team division. The former UFC champion returned to WWE programming this month and has teamed up with Shayna Baszler. Recently, Rousey shared her thoughts on the current state of the women’s tag team division in WWE.
During a recent interaction with Natalya and Tegan Nox on SmackDown, Rousey expressed her dissatisfaction with the division, claiming that it’s just Natalya and whoever she can manage to recruit. Rousey also called out Damage CTRL, the current Women’s Tag Team Champions, for seldom defending their title on television. Taking to social media, Rousey vented her frustration with the state of affairs on the blue brand.
Upon losing the SmackDown Women’s Championship to Charlotte Flair, Ronda Rousey expressed her determination to capture the Women’s Tag Team Titles.Recent rumors have suggested that Rousey and Shayna Baszler could be in line for a opportunity to contend for the tag team titles at WrestleMania 39.
As per the current storyline, Rousey and Baszler could challenge IYO SKY and Dakota Kai for the Women’s Tag Team Championship at WrestleMania 39. However, developments in the upcoming episode of Monday Night RAW could alter the course of events.
IYO SKY and Dakota Kai are scheduled to defend their Women’s Tag Team Championship on RAW against Becky Lynch and Lita. With Lynch and Lita being bigger stars than SKY and Kai, fans speculate that a title change could be in store. Such a change could set up a potential showdown between Rousey and Baszler and Lynch and Lita at WrestleMania 39.
Apparently the entirety of the Smackdown tag division is @NatbyNature plus whatever poor soul she can recruit to her lost cause this week. #USOs defend their title every week, #DamageCNTRL has defended like twice in 6 months. What the hell is going on here?
