Ronda Rousey disappeared from WWE television programming right after WrestleMania 39. Was it only due to dealing with some injuries or also her dissatisfaction with her booking? Only Rousey would have the correct answer to that intriguing question. Nevertheless, the former RAW Women’s champion came back alongside her former MMA cohort, Shayna Baszler on the red brand this week.

The duo wasted no time in inserting themselves back into the conversation. But exactly how did they do it? They did the very same thing they have been doing for years. Not only that, Rousey has made it clear who is the prime target on her radar.

Ronda Rousey made a massive statement upon her return to RAW this week

The Baddest Woman on the Planet was nowhere to be found after WWE wrapped its WrestleMania season this year. However, the former UFC champion and her partner Shayna Baszler got drafted to Monday Night RAW in the 2023 WWE Draft. This indicated that their return was imminent and only a matter of time.

The wait was finally over this week on RAW. The festivities before their arrival saw one-half of the WWE Women’s tag team champion Raquel Rodriguez score a win over Chelsea Green. Originally, the bout was scheduled as a tag team match for the tag titles. However, Green and her partner Sonya Deville had their match postponed due to Liv Morgan’s unfortunate shoulder injury.
