Ronda Rousey is dealing with an aggravated injury, but despite the setback, she is still planning to go forward with wrestling at WWE WrestleMania Goes Hollywood.
As WrestlingNews.co exclusively reported, the plan is for Rousey and Shayna Baszler to win the Women’s Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania. Dave Meltzer also confirmed this.
During this week’s WWE Raw, the company confirmed Trish Stratus, Becky Lynch & Lita vs. Damage CTRL (Bayley, Dakota Kai & IYO SKY) in a six-woman tag team match for Mania. WWE reportedly has twists and turns planned for this feud.
While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted WWE is still planning for Rousey and Baszler to challenge for the titles, but it’s unknown who they will be facing at the show.
“They still have a tag title match. There’s gonna be two matches coming out of this program. Whoever are the champions will wrestle Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler, but they’re also doing the six-woman tag.”
Bryan Alvarez asked if Meltzer was giving them a scoop here and Meltzer said yes since WWE hasn’t announced the tag team match. It’s still unclear which night the title match will happen, but it’s likely for WrestleMania – night 2.
“I don’t know if Dakota and SKY are going to win the belts back or if it will be Lita and Becky Lynch, but Rousey and Baszler are still getting the tag team title shot as has been planned all along and likely winning them. Unless Rousey’s injury doesn’t heal. Which they are, right now, of the impression that she’s not gonna be 100% healed, but the impression is that she would be ready to do the match
