Back in 2019, Ronda Rousey left WWE. And after almost 3 years, she returned to pro wrestling at WWE Royal Rumble 2022. Since then, she has been on a roll. From winning the Royal Rumble to defeating Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women’s Championship, “The Baddest Woman on the Planet” had a great restart to her WWE career.
But ever since Rousey lost the SmackDown Women’s Championship to Liv Morgan, questions have been raised on Ronda Rousey’s future in WWE. At WWE SummerSlam, legendary commentator Michael Cole might have dropped a hint on the former UFC Champion’s WWE future.
Prior to Rousey’s match against Liv Morgan at WWE SummerSlam 2022, Cole said, “Liv Morgan told me earlier this week Ronda Rousey goes home to a beautiful daughter, a wonderful husband. She splits her time. She can’t focus on WWE 100 percent of the time.”
