Ronda Rousey got the biggest shock of her wrestling career when her longtime training partner, Shayna Baszler, turned on her at Money in the Bank. The double cross by Baszler led to their MMA rules match in Detroit at SummerSlam. However, despite the hype surrounding their match and rivalry, fans were uninterested in their match at Ford Field.
In fact, some fans even left their seats to attend nature calls. On the other hand, those who witnessed the match responded with a resounding chorus of disapproving boos within the stadium.

For the first time ever, WWE fans witnessed an unprecedented MMA Rules match in the squared circle. However, the match failed to draw excitement among the fans. The Baddest Woman on the Planet, who is rumored to be leaving WWE soon, drew very negative reactions from the fans.
From start to finish, those who did not leave their seats started a “boring” chant, whereas the others just walked out. Nevertheless, here is how the fans reacted on social media.

I'm an MMA fan and a wrestling fan, and honestly this match should have been replaced with Becky vs. Trish. MMA does NOT translate well in the WWE and the fans literally don't understand or care about what's going on. It's embarrassing!!!
