Report: Ronda Rousey not expected back in AEW

Date:

PWInsider.com is reporting that there are no plans to have Ronda Rousey appear on AEW television in the future, with her appearance at the Revolution pay-per-view described as a one-time thing to promote her return to MMA and help her friend Marina Shafir.

It was previously confirmed that Rousey was not under any deal with AEW and showing up at Revolution was also a way to stick it to TKO for not going through with her return fight against Gina Carano. Rousey has been very critical of the UFC and TKO in general, especially when it comes to fighter pay.

Rousey confronted Toni Storm on the pay-per-view after Storm defeated Shafir. The two had a face off which was broken up by tons of officials and security. The angle was not followed up on after Storm was taken out on Wednesday night before Dynamite and the Kiwi star is now not expected to be back for a long time either.

The former WWE Raw and Smackdown Women’s champion will have her first MMA fight since December 2016 when she takes on Carano on May 16 at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. The fight, airing live on Netflix, is promoted by Jake Paul’s MVP.
