3. Ronda’s Redemption:

The RAW Women’s champion teaming with the Bella Twins showed a lot of emotion pre and post-match. Melbourne, the city must be a location which haunts the Rowdy one’s dreams on a consistent basis or take centre stage in her nightmares when she closes her eyes at night.

It was in Melbourne that she was knocked out by Holly Holmes ending her undefeated streak in the UFC relinquishing her Bantamweight title.

Her MMA career effectively ended that night, she would go on to fight Amanda Nunes 13 months later but only to suffer her second professional defeat. Returning to Melbourne and winning against the RIOT squad was the culmination of her career rebirth in the WWE.

At the end of the match you could see Ronda was deeply touched by the reception that she received from the Australian crowd who have always been highly supportive of her career. Repeatedly saying thank you, staying in the ring for a considerable time after the match to soak in the crowd and reception with the Bella’s.

Maybe the nightmare has finally ended and Ronda can proudly declare she is once again the “Badest Women on the Planet”.
