Ronda Rousey's PPV Matches - Ranked From Worst To Best

7. vs. Nikki Bella, Evolution

Ronda Rousey Becky Lynch

Of all of Ronda Rousey's opponents, perhaps none of them sold her offense worse than Nikki Bella did at WWE Evolution. When she was selling it at all, she would never rotate enough, nearly landing on her head on multiple occasions. It was just plain ugly.

That being said, their match wasn't all bad.

While Rousey was once again calling spots loudly (somebody call Botchamania) and while Nikki's selling was just plain sh*t, it actually felt like Nikki could beat her at some points in the match, thanks mostly to interference from her sister, Brie. Even after Rousey took Brie out of the equation, Nikki nearly capitalized on the distraction, earning two near falls with an Alabama Slam and a Rack Attack.

Of course, Nikki's best offence was not enough, and Rousey made yet another woman tap to her vicious armbar at 14 minutes and 15 seconds, retaining her RAW Women's Championship. Nothing special about this match, really, but marginally better than the Alexa Bliss saga.
