Money talks.

Now, nobody's saying Ronda Rousey is short of a few quid, but cash definitely shouts loudest. Whilst Rousey did announce her retirement via socials following a WWE exit in August (only made official in October), this is pro wrestling - pretty much nothing is off the table in terms of that sh*t.

Workers have retired willy nilly before. Again, that isn't to say Ronda will follow suit, but she would have people talking if she strolled back into view at Full Gear and declared herself #AllElite. It's easy to forget just how big of a crossover name Rousey is. Her star might've faded a little on that front, but she still has a ton of eyeballs on her.

AEW will know that, and they might see Rousey as a replacement for the outgoing Jade Cargill. Ronda's good pal Marina Shafir is already on Tony Khan's books, so there may well be something to entice her with there too. Don't rule anything out!
