Rousey (c) vs. Nia Jax [Raw Women’s Title: Tables Match]🔴

Ronda Rousey has been a fantastic Raw Women’s Champion in the past few months. Technically her rivalry with Charlotte Flair from Survivor Series is not over yet and will most likely culminate at WrestleMania 35, she still has unfinished business with Nia Jax, who earned a title shot against Ronda Rousey in the women’s battle royal at Evolution last month! These two had an outright war at MITB 2018, but their match never ended conclusively due to Alexa Bliss’s MITB cash-in. Now is the time they can end this feud once and for all.

I do not foresee Jax winning here at all since she received so much heat backstage for directly causing a severe concussion to one of our greatest women’s champions of all time, SmackDown Women’s Champion Becky Lynch, who was originally scheduled to face off against Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey at Survivor Series in a Champion vs. Champion match.

Indeed, Jax was the sole survivor at Survivor Series, she has been winning matches consistently on Raw with Tamina, and she continues to sadistically show her bare fist that she used to concuss Becky. However, these signs do not signify a push for Nia’s heel run; instead, it’s simply a way to keep the #1 contender for the Raw Women’s Title looking strong when going into her title match against Rousey at TLC.

Albeit a clever way to keep things as unpredictable as possible, it’s safe to say that Ronda Rousey will retain the Raw Women’s Title against Nia Jax, and Nia’s momentum will be severely lost in the months to come since she will no longer need to be booked strong for another title match after getting crashed through a table by the baddest woman on the planet. In this case, Rousey can indeed take advantage of the facebreaker’s “bad reputation.”

Prediction: Still Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey
