#3 Ronda Rousey to WWE rumour

WWE has some major plans for Rousey apparently

The Rumor: Wrestling Observer noted that WWE is planning a match for Ronda Rousey at Survivor Series. It could either be a four-on-four tag team match involving the MMA Horsewomen or a singles match against Stephanie McMahon or Charlotte. Cageside Seats also added that Rousey will have a singles match at WrestleMania nevertheless.

The Potential: The MMA Horsewomen are heavily involved in the Mae Young Classic Tournament, so it might be a buildup to the eventual WWE debut from Rousey.

The hidden story behind JBL and a WWE writer

While one match from Rousey seems possible, the former UFC Champion performing on two separate WWE pay-per-views could be a long shot. But if it does happen, it would be a big deal for WWE.

The Fallout: The entire buzz surrounding Rousey and WWE will be cleared up after the Mae Young Classic finals.
