Or, maybe it doesn't in the case of WWE's short-lived female stable Absolution.

Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville were nothing but cannon fodder on the 16 April episode of Raw. After Rose lost to Natalya, Paige's former chums decided to give Nattie a kicking, and that's when 'Rowdy' Ronda crashed the scene to show off some MMA strikes. Good on Deville for taking those licks.

There's nothing especially remarkable about this segment, and yet it has over 16 million views on YouTube. That speaks to the star power of Rousey more than anything. She's the focal point here, and there's probably been a steady wave of UFC fans checking in on her earliest pro wrestling appearances.

This wouldn't be the first of last time Ronda helped WWE's YouTube cause...
