Dana Brooke and Ronda Rousey
WWE Raw Women’s superstar Dana Brooke revealed that she would love to face Ronda Rousey, if at all there is a return on the cards for ‘Rowdy’
The legacy Ronda Rousey has left in the WWE and mixed martial arts world will always be unparalleled.
In fact, she is the one who changed the entire face of Women’s MMA. On her day, she was more ruthless than ‘Robbie Lawler,’ ragdolling her opponents with ease. Her defeat of Alexis Davis back in July 2014 is enough to typify her terrorizing reign.
Her days as a Judoka proved to be of immense help. It is worth noting that Rousey is also an Olympic Bronze medalist.
Following two untimely defeats in the UFC, she retired from the sport and moved to the WWE. She was equally successful in the pro-wrestling circuit as well.
In 2018, she became the Raw Women’s champion and her reign went past 230 days before it was ended controversially by Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 35. It was Rousey’s first and only loss in her pro-wrestling career.
Rousey has never appeared in the WWE since then.
In a recent Twitter fan Q&A, WWE Raw women’s superstar Dana Brooke was asked what her dream match was.
Brooke replied that she would love for Ronda Rousey to return to the WWE, so that she could unleash her striking skills on the former MMA star.
Brooke’s Tweet read:
“Would love for @RondaRousey to come back & show her these striking skills I’ve been working on.”
As she suggested in her Tweet, Brooke has been working on her striking skills with her fighter partner Ulysses Diaz, to whom she is engaged.
Dana Brooke faced Ronda Rousey on the 18th of March, 2019 for the Raw Women’s Championship.
Just over a minute into the fight, Rousey executed an armbar, and earned a submission victory to successfully defend her title.
However, despite Brooke tapping, Rousey did not let go of her for a whole minute, which in turn injured Brooke severely.
She suffered a hyperextended left elbow and torn ligaments.
