Hmm.

That's all one could think when Ronda Rousey rushed out to stop Charlotte Flair and Sonya Deville from slapping Naomi around post-main event. Maybe turning Ronda into the latest wrestler to try and save this sagging Deville vs. Naomi story isn't the best idea.

Rousey won the Royal Rumble, and she already has her match with Flair at 'Mania locked in. It doesn't make sense that she'd be willing to jeopardise that, or work a run-in for Naomi when the pair haven't been cast as friends up until now. This filler only existed to schedule some more at Elimination Chamber.

There, Ronda will team with Naomi against Charlotte and Sonya. That match itself is fine enough for what it is, but how many workers do WWE need for this one storyline? Deville also had every right to be p*ssed at Naomi for slapping her earlier in the show.

Just saying.
