WWE Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey has her next challenger lined up and it’s a star that many WWE fans have been wanting to see officials do something with her on television for months now.
Sasha Banks is slated to challenge Rousey for the title at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view event. Banks earned this opportunity to become the new #1 contender for the title once she beat fellow former champion Nia Jax in a contest that took place on Monday’s episode of Raw in Orlando, FL at the Amway Center on the USA Network.
Rousey, who made her WWE debut at last year’s event, took to her official Instagram account where she commented on this match:
“@sashabankswwe Congrats on your win against @niajaxwwe last night, it’ll be my honor to defend my #rawwomenschampionship from you. But it’ll be my absolute pleasure dispelling the #fantasy of the #fauxhorsewomen when I beat you at the #RoyalRumble – this is the #reality era, and the real #4horsewomen are here to define it. #TheBossVsTheBaddest #RondaVsSasha #Jan27 #4horsewomenVSfauxhorsewomen check link in bio for context if you missed the action last night.”
