PWInsider.com is reporting that there are no plans to have
Ronda Rousey appear on AEW television in the future, with
her appearance at the Revolution pay-per-view described as a
one-time thing to promote her return to MMA and help her
friend Marina Shafir.
It was previously confirmed that Rousey was not under any
deal with AEW and showing up at Revolution was also a way to
stick it to TKO for not going through with her return fight
against Gina Carano. Rousey has been very critical of the
UFC and TKO in general, especially when it comes to fighter
pay.
Rousey confronted Toni Storm on the pay-per-view after Storm
defeated Shafir. The two had a face off which was broken up
by tons of officials and security. The angle was not
followed up on after Storm was taken out on Wednesday night
before Dynamite and the Kiwi star is now not expected to be
back for a long time either.
The former WWE Raw and Smackdown Women’s champion will have
her first MMA fight since December 2016 when she takes on
Carano on May 16 at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood,
California. The fight, airing live on Netflix, is promoted
by Jake Paul’s MVP.
