Following Ronda Rousey's return at Royal Rumble 2022, there could be a few superstars who could benefit from an alliance with the Rowdy One.

Ronda Rousey got the entire wrestling world talking with her shocking return to win the 2022 Women's Royal Rumble Match. The Rowdy One looks set to challenge for either the RAW or SmackDown Women's Championships. She clearly has unfinished business with both Champions.

Becky Lynch has been a Champion for every active day that she's been around since defeating Rousey in the first ever all-female main event at WrestleMania 35. SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair was humbled by Ronda with her final elimination from the Women's Rumble. However, those might not be the only titles for the UFC Hall of Famer.

The WWE Women's Tag Team Championships are in desperate need of fresh tag teams entering their ranks. Adding the star power of Rousey would be just the jolt this division needs at the moment.

In this article, let's take a look at five WWE superstars who could form an alliance with Ronda Rousey.


#5 NXT 2.0 star Ivy Nile could follow in the footsteps of Ronda Rousey

Ivy Nile has been one of the best built superstars in the NXT 2.0 women's division. The only female member of Diamond Mine has used her mixed martial arts expertise to have an undefeated record on the brand. That MMA background creates a direct connection with Ronda Rousey.

Rousey is one of the most decorated female athletes of all time. She is a former UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion and one of the biggest draws in MMA history.

Ronda has moved on to professional wrestling and has always become a significant draw in the business. The UFC Hall of Famer has paved a path for herself for others to follow.

A partnership with the Rowdy One could help in the progression of Ivy Nile. The Diamond Mine member has been quite impressive and can learn a lot from a bonafide legend in the style she is perfecting.

The tag team could cause real damage and destroy every other duo in the division.

#4 Ronda Rousey could align with the Authority in WWE official Sonya Deville to become an even bigger villain

WWE official Sonya Deville may be a possible rival for Ronda Rousey with her recent return. Deville has played an effective heel authority figure in her role as an Official working on RAW and SmackDown. She could be an ideal foil for the UFC Hall of Famer, but Ronda could draw even more interest in a relationship with Deville.

After her post-match interview, it seems that Rousey is set to continue as a heel character. Aligning with Deville would add heat and make her a detestable character. Deville has been working with Shayna Baszler as of late against Naomi, so adding Ronda to her unit could be the coup she needs.


#3 Paul Heyman could find a brand new client in Ronda Rousey

Paul Heyman has played an important role backstage with Rousey since her arrival in WWE. The Rowdy One hasn't been shy about admitting that she considers herself a "Paul Heyman Girl." What better way to truly cement her status as the top heel of the women's division than aligning with Paul Heyman as his new client?

Heyman is stuck in the middle of Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar on the Road to WrestleMania 38. After the Show of Shows, the former ECW owner could bolster Rousey's star power even more by choosing her over the two former world champions.

Rousey and Heyman could be a magical partnership on the same level as the former ECW owner's association with Lesnar.

#2 Natalya could reunite with Ronda Rousey

Natalya played a mentor of sorts to Ronda Rousey during her initial stint in WWE. Their alliance led to many big matches and moments. Nattie and Ronda have teamed up on several occasions in tag team and six-person tag team action. They also went one-on-one for the RAW Women's Championship in a competitive bout.

During the Women's Royal Rumble Match, the two ladies had a brief staredown, calling back to their old unit. WWE could reunite the two and give the women's tag team division an established top star in Ronda. The two superstars could become a stable force for the other teams to work off of.


#1 Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler could finally form a MMA Horsewomen duo that could win gold

This is the unit everyone wants to finally see work together. During the Women's Rumble, Ronda and Shayna had a staredown and even helped each other out. Baszler viewed Rousey as a mentor from the start when they first met during the Ultimate Fighter series. They became friends with each other as well as Marina Shafir and Jessamyn Duke to form the MMA Four Horsewomen.

The tag team of Shayna Baszler and Ronda Rousey could be the women's version of the Road Warriors. They are two legit fighters coming together to run roughshod over the entire WWE.

This would be something so unique from every other previous duo in the division. That's why the Queen of Spades is the best WWE superstar who could form an alliance with Ronda Rousey.
