Former WWE manager Dutch Mantell recently said that Ronda Rousey is the only major star in the SmackDown Women's division, and that the other women could benefit from working with her.
Rousey is a three-time Women's Champion and is currently the title holder on the blue brand. She captured the gold from Liv Morgan at the Extreme Rules Premium Live Event last month. Since becoming the champ, The Baddest Woman on the Planet turned heel and joined forces with Shayna Baszler.
Speaking on this week's episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Smack Talk, Mantell mentioned that WWE needed to make Rousey the biggest heel in the Women's division. He detailed that The Rowdy One could whine and complain about other stars, with fans trying to bring her down.

"That's what they need to be focusing on now. Take Ronda Rousey and put her in the ring like you would a single male heel and just her brag and bitch. A good heel is always the ultimate victim. Let's say Ronda, everybody is working to knock her off her pedestal. She knew the WWE women would do that or the fans would do that." [29:26 - 29:55]
Mantell suggested that WWE could also try pairing Lacey Evans with Shayna and Ronda.
"You could almost have Rousey and Lacey kinda team up... You could still put Lacey kinda next to her somehow. And then when you want to do something, there's a lot of ways to do it. But I'd like to see Lacey and Ronda." [30:38 - 31:08]
