Well, this one might be the most predictable on the list, but with Rousey fighting for the Raw Women's Championship after only three televised WWE matches, not to mention debuting at WrestleMania, pressure isn't a thing she feels inside the squared circle, it seems.

While Natalya may be the more likely partner, Baszler could be perfect for long-term storytelling. Ronda Rousey is by far the biggest name to make the switch from UFC to WWE, but the NXT Women's Champion made that same journey before her friend.

As Rousey has been learning how to ply her craft in WWE in front of the world, Shayna Baszler learned behind closed doors and has been honing her craft between the yellow ropes ever since - even claiming the runner-up spot in the Mae Young Classic with Rousey watching in the crowd.

When Baszler won the NXT Women's Championship at TakeOver, Rousey was there to congratulate her backstage. Now, if WWE really wanted to go all in with this pair, give them the Tag Team Championships, then let Baszler turn on Ronda Rousey to set up the ultimate UFC turned WWE Superstar rivalry!
