6 Ways To Work Paige VanZant Into WWE Programming
1. A Program With Ronda Rousey
It's a long shot, but there's good reason for WWE to try and book a feud in their scripted world between Ronda Rousey and Paige VanZant.
For starters, Rousey's appearance at WrestleMania 31 was huge news. Huge like Mike Tyson's involvement. Arguably, it stole the show on a pretty strong event. Now, Rousey has not been seen in WWE since, and hasn't really been heard from much at all since losing her UFC title last November, but eventually, she will be back in the spotlight.
Meanwhile, her and Paige VanZant managed to have a bit of a feud. Apparently, Rousey caught wind of VanZant congratulating Holly Holm after Holm beat Rousey, and took it personally. According to current champ Miesha Tate, and confirmed by VanZant, Rousey got in Paige's face at VIP Party for Reebok, and began screaming at her, saying "f*** you, you fair-weathered b****!" in response to Paige's message to Holm.
Now, being in different weight classes, and with Rousey having no hope of cutting weight to 115lbs, having a scripted end to the feud could be worthwhile. Of course, Rousey would have to play nice, but assuming she can, this would be a great way for WWE to steal some thunder from the UFC, who simply aren't able to do much with this rivalry.
