Many storylines could fall into disarray after Ronda Rousey's departure
#4 No Ronda Rousey vs. Shayna Baszler feud either

Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler have followed a similar path to arrive at WWE. Both of them are huge wrestling fans, who had a chance to live their dream inside a WWE ring. Both of them achieved huge success in their respective brands.
While Ronda Rousey is the RAW Women's Champion, Shayna Baszler is the NXT Women's Champion. One would have assumed that a match between these two fast friends and MMA superstars would have happened in due course of time. But if Rousey were to leave WWE after WrestleMania 35, I don't see this happening really.
Whether Baszler wins or loses at NXT TakeOver: Phoenix against Bianca Belair, I assume she will be in the title program on WrestleMania weekend. It would also not make sense to bring her up to the main roster, so very soon after the arrival of Lacey Evans and Nikki Cross.
