There has been an interesting update on Ronda Rousey's proposed new opponent.
Fresh from defending the SmackDown Women's Championship against Shotzi at Survivor Series: War Games, reports have emerged that Rousey's next challenger will be former NXT Champion Raquel Rodriguez. According to earlier reports, The Baddest Woman on the Planet will put her title on the line against Rodriguez at the 2023 Royal Rumble.
A recent update from Fightful has suggested that Raquel Rodriguez will still be wearing her arm brace on tonight's edition of WWE SmackDown. The brace was first worn following an attack from Ronda Rousey and her ally Shayna Baszler, in which she was said to have sustained a broken arm and dislocated elbow. During the attack, Rodriguez had her arm slammed into a crate.
The injuries are part of the storyline between Rousey, Baszler, Shotzi and Rodriguez. WWE have previously stated that Raquel Rodriguez will be out of action for the next few weeks due to her "injuries".
