In case you didn’t know…
Ronda Rousey shocked the world when she appeared at the end of the WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view to interrupt Asuka choosing which Champion she would face at WrestleMania.
While we haven’t seen the former UFC Bantamweight Champion since, she has been confirmed for the Elimination Chamber event where she will sign her exclusive WWE RAW contract.
The heart of the matter
Nia Jax recently spoke with Busted Open Radio about Ronda Rousey’s impending WWE debut. The Irresistible Force spoke of her excitement and praised Ronda Rousey for her work in UFC.
While rumours have been going around that Ronda Rousey has some “backstage heat” with the women in the locker room, Jax went on to say the arrival of “Rowdy” can only be a good thing for everyone.
Nia, who will go toe-to-toe with the undefeated Asuka on Sunday, also praised Rousey for making the leap to WWE - and welcomed a new challenge for Rousey and for herself.
Nia Jax did have some advice for Ronda Rousey, though, stating there’s one very important rule she needs to obey in order to fit in when she steps in the locker room.
While speaking about previous comments on Busted Open Radio from a former Women’s Champion, Nia Jax also took her chance to clear the air.

What’s next?
Nia Jax battles the undefeated Asuka for a chance to be added to Asuka’s Championship Match at WrestleMania. Asuka is scheduled to face Alexa Bliss but Bliss must first retain her Championship in the first ever Women’s Elimination Chamber Match.
Ronda Rousey will sign her official WWE contract at the pay-per-view.
Author’s take
Well, it’s pretty cool to hear Nia speak about Rousey in such high regard. While it’s cool of WWE Superstars to try keeping some kayfabe alive and make it seem like there’s real heat, I always really enjoy hearing praise between them too.
With that being said, I can’t wait to see Nia and Rousey face off in the future - and I’m also really excited to see the role both will play on Sunday!
