Also, why is Ronda Rousey still all happy-go-lucky about what happened at MITB? Booking her to pat Liv on the back, beat Natalya and move on to a babyface vs. babyface showdown at SummerSlam doesn't sound nearly as fun as a p*ssed off ex-UFC fighter gunning for the belt would be.

Liv needs strong heels to work with.

If nothing else, at least there's a few weeks until the next pay-per-view to put this right. There's just something so insincere about Ronda congratulating Morgan for opportunistically cashing in on her hours after winning the briefcase, and that'll need to change.

Hopefully, Natalya is out of the title frame for a while too. She was comprehensively thumped by Rousey here, which did nothing to back up her crowing about injuring the former champion last week. Back to the tag division you go, Nattie.
