Ronda Rousey came to WWE back in 2018 and was immediately pushed as the most dominant force in the Women's Division. Rousey proved this many times until Alexa Bliss cashed in her Money in the Bank contract during the former UFC star's match against Nia Jax at the namesake Pay-Per-View, costing Rousey a chance to become the RAW Women's Champion.

The next night on RAW, Rousey unleashed a beating on Alexa Bliss before turning her attention to Kurt Angle, who was her mentor at the time but the star was so enraged that she ended up attacking the Olympic Gold Medalist as well.

WWE was left with no choice but to suspend Rousey for 30 days following the aforementioned incident, but the former UFC Champion isn't the kind of person who would let WWE's rules stand in her way.

Rousey violated her suspension a week later in order to beat Alexa down but Kurt Angle showed up in time to stop Rousey and add another week to her suspension. Rousey was then able to comply with her 30-day suspension so that she could retain her Women's Championship match at SummerSlam.
