Result: Alexa Bliss interferes, giving Rousey the DQ win (11:05).

Rating: This match subverted expectations in a few ways, both by not being a simple Ronda squash, and then not actually giving her the title victory.

Credit to Rousey, she's clearly putting ego to the wayside and let Jax look incredibly strong even in defeat. This was far more competitive than most were probably expecting, resulting in one of the most physical and intense women's matches in quite some time.

It ran just the right length, and though some might balk at the bulls*** finish, it was ultimately an efficient way to keep the title off Ronda without having her do the job. This was easily the big, pleasant surprise of the night, though some might understandably take issue with that finish. 7/10
