“What If” Scenarios That Would Have Transformed WWE History

7. Ronda Rousey Never Left The UFC

Both the world class Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair definitely played significant roles in firing the women's division into the main event of WrestleMania for the very first time.

But were it not for one particular UFC fighter deciding to turn her back on MMA and join the wrestling world, there's a good chance that massive moment in WWE history wouldn't have happened at the time it did.

Make no mistake, WWE's women's revolution was obviously already well underway before Ronda Rousey decided to strut down the ramp at the 2018 Royal Rumble.

The Four Horsewomen were stealing 'Show of Shows', Asuka was in the middle of an impressive winning streak, and NXT was continually producing exciting new names to throw up to the main roster - only for Vince McMahon to regularly lose interest in them within a few months/weeks.

However, without Ronnie bringing a ton of new eyes to the product and the crossover superstar rapidly becoming one of the most must-see parts of the WWE product, fans would have probably had to have wait a few more years before an all-women's contest went on last at the biggest show of the year.

Regardless of how her second run went, Ronda was still hugely responsible for one of the most important pieces of WWE history.
