Ronda Rousey Digs Up Past Incidents to Mock Ex-Best Friend Shayna Baszler’s Less Popular MMA Career

In a pretty shocking turn of events at Money in the Bank, Shayna Baszler turned on her long-time training partner, Ronda Rousey. The attack from Baszler allowed Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez to emerge as the new Women’s Tag Team Champions. Baszler explained on Raw following MITB how she had nothing but vitriol for Ronda Rousey. The WWE Universe further saw fireworks between the two, with Shayna Baszler coming out on top. 

However, on the latest edition of Monday Night Raw, Ronda Rousey came looking for retribution. Baszler, on the other hand, escaped the attack. Rousey has now taken a personal dig at Baszler’s unsung MMA career on social media. 

Ronda Rousey makes it personal with Shayna Baszler

Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler were arguably the most fierce and formidable tag teams in the women’s division. The former women’s tag team champions incorporate vicious MMA moves and submissions into wrestling. But before turning into pro wrestlers, both Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler were in the UFC. 

While Rousey had a decorated UFC career, Shayna Baszler didn’t achieve glory in MMA. It should be noted that the two lived together prior to joining the UFC. And so, Rousey and Baszler know each other too well. Ronda Rousey hit Baszler where it hurt the most on Instagram, digging up her MMA struggles. The point Rousey is seemingly making in her post is that Baszler has always been inferior to her. 

She wrote, “Some things never change”, posting a compilation of brief clips of her pounding on her opponents. In the clip, we see Rousey taking down Alexis Davis with a judo throw in their UFC match. In addition, Rousey also attached a clip of her attacking Shayna Baszler on Raw. The end of the video saw Rousey deliver a knee to the liver of her training partner during a sparring session, knocking her down. 

Overall, Ronda Rousey appears to be very confident in herself as she prepares for her potential grudge match with Shayna Baszler. We will have to wait and see who emerges as the superior of the two old friends turned rivals.

Ronda Rousey made her return to WWE after a three-year hiatus in 2022. The Baddest Woman on the Planet has so far carved out a very impressive wrestling career, though she is not a fan-favorite. However, rumors about her return to the UFC are making rounds on social media. 

During a recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that Ronda Rousey has been in talks with WWE management about her potential departure from wrestling before WrestleMania 40. 

He stated, “She gave a date, ‘This is my last date.’ Cause I remember talking to somebody there and it’s like, ‘I know they’re going to do this, and I guess, make the big match for WrestleMania.’

Additionally, Ronda Rousey’s recent UFC DraftKings ad further fueled speculation about her WWE exit. At this point, it’s all mere speculation until Rousey finishes her program with Shayna Baszler. It remains to be seen what the future holds for Ronda Rousey.
