10 Times WWE Revived AWFUL Storylines

10. Ronda Rousey Vs Nia Jax

Now credit where it’s due, the matches between the two were fine on both occasions. However the feud itself simply did not merit any kind of reboot.

In mid-2018, after her pretty sensational debut at WrestleMania, Ronda Rousey found herself in a championship storyline for the first time. It came about in odd fashion when then Raw Women’s Champion Nia Jax simply approached her at a WWE event and proposed they fight for the title. A slightly flustered Rousey accepted the challenge, as Charlotte Flair of all people bizarrely cheered this whole thing on.

The two met at Money in the Bank where the match ended in a DQ following an Alexa Bliss cash in. This would seem to be the end of the feud, as Rousey then entered a program with Bliss; one that would eventually end with her coronation as Women’s Champion.

However, right at the end of the year WWE revived the Jax-Rousey rivalry, the former being a heel this time around. The story wasn’t anything special before, and it certainly wasn’t any better the second time.
