1. Ronda Rousey Is Arguably The Most Over Superstar In The WWE Already

Who would have thought that the mixed tag team match featuring Ronda Rousey’s in-ring debut would arguably steal the show at WrestleMania 34?  Personal preferences aside, Rousey more than impressed on the grandest stage of them all and seemingly silenced all the doubters.

Her style has already captivated the WWE universe and for all the fans that booed her initially or resented her, their tune has seemingly been changed in a big way.  Rousey’s momentum continued last night when Stephanie McMahon opened up the show to give a disingenuous show of respect towards The Rowdy One.

Stephanie tried to butter Rousey up and get on her good side, but Rousey was having none of it.  After hugging Stephanie and shaking her hand, Rousey’s mood changed and she put her back in the same armbar that nearly tore her arm out of socket at WrestleMania 34.  The live crowd popped like crazy and Rousey became even more popular than she already was.

It hasn’t taken long for her to become over with the crowd, but one can make the argument that she is already the most over superstar in the WWE.  Her mainstream appeal and UFC background turned some fans off at the beginning, but she has proven she is a natural in the WWE and the future is extremely bright.
