WWE Megastar Ronda Rousey to Challenge Rhea Ripley in Unprecedented Dream Match? A Closer Look at the Possibilities
Rhea Ripley, often referred to as “The Eradicator,” currently holds the top spot in the WWE women’s division, showcasing a significant evolution since joining forces with The Judgment Day last year.
After securing the championship at WrestleMania 39, Ripley has been a force to be reckoned with, proving herself as a formidable champion in the ring. But as WWE SummerSlam approaches, whispers are growing about a possible, and seemingly insurmountable, challenge on the horizon in the form of former UFC champion, Ronda Rousey.
Rousey vs. Ripley: A Match That Almost Was
The wrestling community was buzzing when Rousey vs. Ripley was initially slated for WrestleMania 39, but the scenario changed unexpectedly. A champion is not defined by their triumphs alone but also by the adversaries they face. If Ripley were to face Rousey in the ring, it would undeniably be the biggest fight of her career.
Ronda Rousey, often referred to as the greatest female Mixed Martial Artist of all time, brings a unique and daunting presence to the ring. For Ripley, a match against Rousey would mean more than just another fight; it would be an opportunity to demonstrate that she can stand toe-to-toe with the industry’s top talent.
The Pros and Cons of a Ripley-Rousey Match
There’s no denying that a showdown between Ripley and Rousey would be a boon for Ripley’s career. The opportunity to wrestle against a seasoned veteran like Ronda would undoubtedly bolster her standing.
However, the possibility of such a dream match is still up in the air. Despite spending more than half a decade in WWE, Rousey is yet to establish herself completely.
Recent rumors about her potential departure from the WWE further complicate the situation. It has been said that Rousey might leave the company once her feud with Shayna Baszler ends, casting doubt on the prospects of a Ripley-Rousey dream match.
Uncertain Future for Rousey in WWE
According to recent reports, Rousey has given WWE management a “hard date,” suggesting her imminent departure post-SummerSlam or perhaps later. However, fans and wrestling enthusiasts are left in the dark regarding her specific exit date.
There is much anticipation and speculation about when “The Baddest Woman on the Planet” will finally reveal her cards. Will she indeed leave WWE or stick around for one last mega showdown?
What’s in Store for Ripley and WWE?
While the future remains uncertain, one thing is for sure: if Rousey decides to exit, the WWE may want to leverage her remaining time to their advantage.
A prime live event like Survivor Series could serve as the perfect platform to promote Rhea Ripley. If Rousey is indeed set to leave, a marquee match between these two powerhouses could be a fitting farewell for Rousey while also providing a significant boost for Ripley.
In the ever-unpredictable world of professional wrestling, only time will tell what’s in store for these two titans of the ring. Whether Rousey and Ripley will face off in a dream match remains to be seen. But one thing’s for sure — if it happens, it will be a clash for the ages.
