Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler got a stipulation for their SummerSlam match that feels unneeded and not in line with the story that is being told.
The duo did some of their absolute best promo and storytelling work in the interview package on “Monday Night Raw” to tell the backstory and build hype for their SummerSlam match.It was raw, fierce and grounded in the story of their true friendship – making it a shame if their in-ring feud is shortlived.
What happens at SummerSlam was supposed to be and should be about Baszler proving she is the better pro wrestler than Rousey, about the Queen of Spades refusing to let her real-life best friend from taking that away from her. The beauty of pro wrestling is it can still be a “fight” that expresses and proves the toughness of the two competitors even without adding potential real fight rules to a scripted one.
