Result: Ronda beats Sasha with the Piper's Pit to retain (13:55).

Rating: A totally solid match that continued to bolster Rousey's strength while giving Banks one of her most impressive showcases of recent times.

If Sasha choking Ronda with her ring gear - which probably should've resulted in a DQ, by the way - wasn't enough of an indication that she needs to turn heel, then what is? The way she carries herself is just so better suited to playing the villain.

But back to the match itself, which wasn't without a few sloppy moments from Ronda, but Banks flourished as the glue holding it all together. The result was never in doubt, but a fine showing from both regardless. 7/10
