#4 More grappling

Charlotte Flair could allow Ronda Rousey to get more technical than we've seen so far.

In her initial outings, Ronda Rousey has shown a fine ability to combine her very legitimate judo, jiu-jitsu, and striking game into the worked context of professional wrestling. It’s noteworthy, too, that she’s managed this transition from real fighting into sports entertainment opposite a series of opponents such as Stephanie McMahon, Nia Jax, Alicia Fox, and Alexa Bliss.

While one should not take anything away from the women Rousey has been up against so far, it’s nonetheless true that McMahon and Bliss, in particular, are known far more for their personality and talking skills than their abilities on the mat.

Meanwhile, Jax was a believable foil because of her size advantage over the Rowdy one. Flair would offer Rousey her first opponent with a legitimate mat game and complete package of in-ring skills to put on the grappling classic that Rousey’s legitimate skills may well make her capable of.
