WWE needs to give their best at Royal Rumble

#4 Ronda Rousey vs Sasha Banks- Raw Women's Championship

Sasha Banks vs Ronda Rousey is the match to book

Billed as 'The Baddest Woman On The Planet' by the WWE Universe, current Raw Women's Champion, Ronda Rousey has been on a tear ever since she won the Raw Women's Championship by defeating Alexa Bliss at SummerSlam.

Rousey, who is currently scheduled to make her next title defense against former champion and arch-rival, Nia Jax at TLC, is expected to put yet another clinical performance, this time in San Jose, California in two weeks time.

Given the fact that Rousey gets past Jax at TLC and marks yet another successful title defence, fans would be hoping to witness Rousey compete in a few high profiles and a fresh set of matches in 2019.

With Alexa Bliss currently out sidelined, having Ronda Rousey square-off and defend her title against another former Raw Women's Champion sounds like a very good idea, therefore, why not have someone like Sasha Banks step up to the plate and challenge Rousey?

This will not only further ignite the feud between the two Four Horsewomen groups but will also give Sasha Banks a fresh start to 2019.
