Natalya has dropped a major hint that ‘Rowdy’ Ronda Rousey may be on her way back to World Wrestling Entertainment in the immediate future.
For countless months there has been talk and speculation that the former WWE Raw Women’s Champion was in training for a return to the ring following her last appearance for the company in the main event of WrestleMania 35.
While the woman herself has remained tight-lipped, presumably to preserve any shock value an appearance may have, it is widely believed that Rousey will return as a surprise entrant in 2021 Royal Rumble Match on January 31 and seal a WrestleMania title shot against either Asuka, Sasha Banks or whoever may be champion come April 10 and April 11.
Now, Natalya has dropped a major hint that her best friend and ‘Baddest Women on the Planet’ could be on her way back to the company imminently in an interview with Sportskeeda:
“I love Ronda. I think that she, you know, she was so much fun to work with and I look forward to the thought of her coming back, but I don’t know. I think that Ronda will love to come back to WWE, but I also think that her main focus is really on her family. On starting a family. I know that has been like a dream of hers since I first met her. The very first time I met her, she was talking about wanting a family. So, I have to give her credit for really sticking to her guns.
You know, it’s so tempting to want to come back to WWE because it’s so much fun to perform for people around the world, but at the same time, Ronda, she seems very committed to wanting a family. So, we’ll see. But, you know, there are a million things that can happen and that, again, is what I love about WWE is that, like, you never know who is going to show up at the Royal Rumble. You never know who is going to be a part of WrestleMania. It’s really, you know, you have to expect the unexpected.”
With the 2021 Royal Rumble on the horizon, Ronda Rousey is tipped by the bookmakers as one of the top four favourites alongside Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair and Alexa Bliss to prevail on the night.
