What if Nikki Bella beats Ronda Rousey at Evolution?

#2 A rematch

Ronda Rousey wouldn't be done with Nikki Bella after one loss.

While Ronda Rousey has signed on to WWE as a full-time talent and she regularly works not just PPVs but a run of the mill episodes of Raw, the company understandably still treats her as something special. After all, she’s that rare bona fide celebrity who chose to come to WWE, and who carries with her the capacity to lure her personal fans over to WWE’s squared circle in a way most WWE performers simply can’t.

One aspect of Rousey as a wrestler that WWE hasn’t figured out yet, though, is how to at once keep her special while also creating doubt about whether she’ll win a match. Having her outsized against Nia Jax and working with a kayfabe injury against Alexa Bliss were reasonable steps to add a sense of drama for her matches, but Rousey has only been working matches in WWE for half of a year, and it looks as though WWE is running out of those kinds of options.

Bella cheating to win would at least change roles for Rousey from dominant champ to hungry challenger. While we’d have to assume Rousey would win the rematch, it would nonetheless be a reasonable enough match with a different story for WWE to build toward.
