Two weeks ago, Ronda Rousey turned heel when she assaulted Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair on Raw.
A week later, Rousey attacked Dana Brooke, and when the referees tried to calm her down, she put her hands on them too. Although WWE fined her, I don’t think it had any effect on the Raw Women’s Champion.
Ronda Rousey has been fined by WWE as a result of her unprofessional actions last Monday night on Raw. Due to the confidentiality of Rousey’s contract, the amount of the fine will not be disclosed. Appropriate action has been taken.
Undoubtedly, attacking an official would get anyone in trouble, but still, Ronda doesn’t care. This week, she laid her hands on the security after her match with Dana Brooke, in which she won. Let’s take a look at five reasons why The Rowdy One has been physical with the WWE officials lately.
#5 Another way to get her booed by the WWE Universe
Ronda Rousey is a heel and she does get booed by the fans, but that isn't enough for her. She is the baddest women on the planet and can’t cheat in a match. This is a great way to be booed.
A good (babyface) wrestler would never attack an official but the Rowdy One is doing the same. It is another way she has been coercing the WWE Universe to boo her. Moreover, it seems like she is doing the right thing as the fans have now started to treat her like a baddie. But is it the only way to get boos from the audience?
In my opinion, there are still many ways left untouched, but I will discuss that in a different article.
#4 A warning to anyone who comes in her way
What does Ronda’s action on Monday Night Raw convey to you? Now, your answers may vary, but the real fact is that Ronda, the Raw Women’s Champion, is showing no fear of anyone in WWE.
She has already proven how fearless she is when she laid her hands on Triple H and Stephanie McMahon. However, in that period, she was a face doing the right thing. But now, she is a villain absolutely doing the wrong thing.
Ronda is proving why she is the Baddest Woman on the Planet by putting her hands on WWE Officials. I feel that her being unprofessional towards others is the right thing to do, considering her big match against Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania.
This way, not only is she is getting booed by the fans, but she is also proving that nobody can get in her way. And if someone did try to do that, he/she will get a similar treatment from the Rowdy One.
#3 Becky Lynch is a babyface
I feel the reason why WWE turned Ronda to a heel is Becky Lynch. From being nothing to everything in WWE is not an easy task.
The last 12 months were career changing for The Man as she has now become the hottest thing in the entire WWE. Nobody is above her in terms of popularity and this includes Ronda as well.
Currently, Lynch and Charlotte are in a feud with Ronda for the Raw Women’s Championship and the odds are in favor of the Irish Lasskicker right now. She is the one fans cheer for while booing Charlotte and Ronda.
And I think it is the reason why Rousey has been acting unprofessionally on Raw. This way she is turning her fans to Lynch’s side, which is indeed the correct thing to do.
#2 Get more social attention
Social media has played a major role in WWE’s success. Now a lot of rivalries are also starting from this virtual world and it seems like things are going to be more social for Ronda Rousey.
There’s nothing new when two wrestlers brawl with each other in pro wrestling, as it is what they are actually supposed to do. However, when superstars attack someone more powerful than themselves, it creates headlines. WWE officials, in a way, have more authority than a wrestler and attacking them could get someone in trouble.
However, Ronda doesn’t care about them and does whatever she wants. If you check on WWE’s social media account, you would observe that whenever a wrestler attacks an official, it attracts more fan attention. And considering Ronda’s WrestleMania rivalry, it is great news.
#1 She can’t hurt Becky Lynch or Charlotte Flair’s momentum at this moment
Ronda, Becky, and Charlotte – the three biggest names heading to WrestleMania 35, and the reason: the Raw Women’s Championship.
Next month, these three women are going to create history in New York when they headline WrestleMania. However, there are still some things left to do in the buildup of this rivalry. The women need to be physical with each other, something we haven’t seen a lot of.
In WWE’s eyes, Ronda is the front-runner in this rivalry and to make her look strong, she needs to be physical. However, doing the same with Lynch or Charlotte could hurt them and their momentum. And maybe it is why Ronda is laying hands on officials who can’t fight her back. This is making her look strong and unstoppable, at least in WWE’s eyes.
