RAW Women's Champion Alexa Bliss vs Ronda Rousey
The Odds: Alexa Bliss(+300) vs Ronda Rousey (-420)
The Favorite: Ronda Rousey
Charlotte Flair to return and wrestle a CURRENT CHAMPION?
Why Vegas Is Right: Ronda Rousey is arguably the greatest professional fighter to ever step foot into a wrestling ring. She knows how to bend people at her will and make them break. This past Monday on RAW, Bliss utilized the services of four 'highly trained' security guards; but, Rousey annihilated three of the four with ease. The last man looked her in the eyes and terrified, ran out of the ring in search of safety. Rousey's dismantling of Bliss' security team was strictly business; but, Alexa Bliss' disrespect for Rousey makes it personal. The last time Bliss took things to such a personal level (WrestleMania 34 vs Nia Jax) she lost her RAW Women's Championship.
Why Vegas Is Wrong: Alexa Bliss is a professional wrestler and she won't let a rookie MMA fighter take her RAW Women's Championship. Bliss' championship advantage is key here and so is her in-ring intelligence. Bliss, whose often dwarfed by taller opponents, almost always seems to find a way to victory. SummerSlam will be no different. She has something up her sleeve. She always does.
This time look for Bliss to utilize the services of a heartbroken Natalya Neidhart in order to hold on to her coveted RAW Women's Championship. Natalya was reported to feud with Rousey before the passing of her father Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart.
Rousey said incredibly moving words on Monday; but, was she really there for her friend or did she care more about the pursuit of championship gold? Why wasn't she at Natalya's side instead of pursuing Alexa Bliss on RAW? This will all come into play on Sunday at SummerSlam.
