After disappointing fans at Royal Rumble with her absence, Ronda Rousey made her return to the roster earlier this month. However, fans’ anger towards her isn’t waning. She may have incurred the wrath of fans again after she started calling out several champions on social media. But this time, another WWE star was there to answer her. 

After the December 30 episode of Friday Night SmackDown where Rousey lost her WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship title to Charlotte Flair, she has been eyeing the women’s tag team division. In order to hold that title, she must conquer Damage CTRL, the current champions.

In typical heel fashion, she took shots at the entire women’s tag team division while also mentioning the Men’s Undisputed Tag Team Champions, The Usos.

Ronda Rousey takes shots at the Women’s tag team division

In one of her recent tweets, ‘The Baddest Woman on the Planet’ not only compared Damage CTRL to that of The Usos but also fired upon the entire SmackDown Women’s tag team division by stating that it only consists of Natalya and “whatever poor soul” she can recruit that week.

After the recurring feud between Rowdy and Shayna Baszler’s team with Natalya, it wasn’t shocking when she called her out. However, the second part of her tweet wasn’t expected. 

She then went a step ahead and talked about how frequently the holders of the Men’s Tag Team titles, The Usos, defend their championship, but on the other hand, the women’s tag team champions have defended the titles twice in six months.

This was then seen by the leader of Damage CTRL, Bayley, who decided to correct her.

Bayley replied to the furious tweet by Rousey stating that IYO SKY and Dakota Kai regularly defend their titles at live events. However, to witness that and have a correct record of it, Rousey must show up at the live events.

In the same tweet, she also asked Rousey to first spell the name of the champions correctly and then proceed further to diss them.

Ever since the former UFC champion teamed up with Baszler to find a place in the tag team division, the rumors are implying a title match for them at WrestleMania 39. There are several ways to go about it and could this Twitter back-and-forth be the beginning of something? Let us know what you think in the comments.
