All talk about Ronda Rousey appearing at another Wrestlemania has been consistently shot down but for the ones who are still holding out some hope, here is something that should interest you.
Ronda Rousey, undoubtedly one of the big names in the UFC circle today, seems to have not gotten over her Wrestlemania 31 experience.
Back in March, the reigning UFC Women's Bantamweight champion made a surprise appearance alongside friend and Fast and Furious co-star Dwayne 'the Rock' Johnson that rocked the Levi Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
That segment had Rousey backing up the Rock as he was being berated by Stephanie McMahon and Triple H. What ensued after that, scripted and all, was pretty much perfect considering the persona that Rousey had at that time was on target as to how she is in the Octagon.
So now, the WWE fans want some more, and many had earlier speculated that to happen at Wrestlemania 32 which, as mentioned earlier, has been repeatedly shot down no less by UFC president Dana White.
With that said, the chances of seeing the reigning UFC Women's Bantamweight champion have most likely made it near impossible, and the WWE fans may have to hope and wait yet again. Would three years be enough?
Ronda Rousey recently spoke with Fox Sports Australia, an appearance obviously meant to promote her upcoming fight against Holly Holm at UFC 193, which takes place on November 14. Rousey talked about a lot of stuff, and the WWE was among them.
She didn't mention anything about a Wrestlemania 32 appearance but probably mentioned something better - possibly jumping to the WWE brand in three years.
Why three years? Rousey had already indicated before that she doesn't see herself fighting beyond the age of 30. Now at 28 years old, this would mean that Rousey has 2 to 3 years left in the UFC.
The interesting part of that interview was Rousey hinting of a possible jump to the WWE by that time.
"After getting a taste of it, I'm definitely going to find a way to get back in there. I don't know how or when but I don't think any true wrestling fans would want to know anyway. They'd want to be surprised. I've got to get back in there somehow."
Now that seems to be a whole lot better than a one-night and occasional appearance, don't you think? Of course, all that remains to be seen. There are a lot of things that could happen from now until 2017 or 2018.
Rousey could change her mind and continue to fight or opt to retire for good. The UFC could also have a hand in that, namely, offer her something she may not be able to refuse.
The only good thing about it for now is that Rousey is still interested in a WWE stint, whether it be for one night or for long. There is no question that the WWE will be cheering her, face or heel, once and if ever that materializes.
