Former WWE Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey is inactive since last year. She lost her title to Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 35 and took a break. However, it seems that she might be coming back to the ring. With Becky Lynch out of the equation, the Raw women’s division really needs Ronda.

Coming back to Ronda, she previously said that she won’t be back in WWE full-time again. However, she could be open to part-time appearances.

“If I ever do come back, it will never be at a full-time capacity ever again. I think for stints, chunks of time, I’m very much an obsessive person where I like to obsess over something for a certain time and then take some time to obsess about something else, but no, I’m never going to be full-time again, over 200 days a year, on the road. I needed to do it in order to learn and get immersed into it and really understand what was going on, but it’s just not the lifestyle for me.
