10 HUGE WWE Elimination Chamber 2018 Predictions You Need To Know
3. Rowdy
"BUT WHOSE SIDE IS SHE ON?!"
Something akin to Bobby Heenan's sublime character work (and accidental spoiler) during Hulk Hogan's Bash At The Beach return would have made for a better response from the commentary table when Ronda Rousey confidently strolled to the ring at the climax of the first ever Women's Royal Rumble. The "OMGLOL"-type responses from Michael Cole and Corey Graves were frustratingly par for the course, but as it turned out, they didn't have the answer to some questions the 'Rowdy' one had just changed.
24 hours removed from the news breaking of her permanent signing with WWE, Rousey was virtually a ghost again. The pay-per-view timing way key but it unfortunately resulted in the company having to drag out her next appearance in the way they used to back when they actually made money from the monthly supercards.
Monday's excellent video package has primed Rousey for the next step, but it'll be at Elimination Chamber where she makes her first shocking sidestep. With Alexa Bliss now destined for a date with Asuka, Ronda will remind audiences of her relentless sign-pointing a month earlier. Irritating Comissioner Stephanie McMahon, she'll ultimately sign for SmackDown Live! having revealed a promise of a WrestleMania title shot from Shane McMahon and Daniel Bryan.
A battle with the 'Billion Dollar Princess' will wait. Ronda's road this year will be to take 'The Queen's throne.
