According to a report, WWE may have huge plans involving former Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey for WrestleMania 38.

Former Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey could be returning to the WWE very soon.

As previously noted, WWE is reportedly trying to bring back Ronda Rousey. Some are wondering if she’ll make a surprise return at Saturday’s Royal Rumble pay-per-view.

Speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio (h/t Inside The Ropes), Dave Meltzer reported that Rousey is “scheduled for WrestleMania” weekend on Apr. 2-3. Meltzer is assuming that Rousey will face current Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch.

Rousey’s last WWE match took place in the main event of WrestleMania 35 three years ago. Rousey (then the Raw Women’s Champion), Lynch and Charlotte Flair (then the SmackDown Women’s Champion) squared off in a triple threat match for both titles, which Lynch won (in controversial fashion) by pinning Rousey.

The women’s and men’s Royal Rumble matches usually feature several surprise entries, but we’ll just have to wait and see if Rousey makes an appearance. Some of the top names who are returning for the women’s Royal Rumble match include Impact Knockouts Champion Mickie James, Michelle McCool, Summer Rae, Kelly Kelly and Hall of Famers Lita, Nikki and Brie Bella.

According to a recent Fightful report, WWE is hoping to lure former WrestleMania main-eventer Ronda Rousey back to the ring.

WWE bosses reportedly want Ronda Rousey to get back in the ring and are doing all they can to make it happen.

Per Fightful Select, WWE is attempting to persuade Rousey to return to the company for the first time since 2019. Fightful reports that a potential Rousey return has been discussed so much that it is considered a “poorly kept secret” as even some people outside the company are aware of the efforts to lure Rousey back. Fightful also reports that Rousey’s name was mentioned as a potential surprise entrant in the 2022 Women’s Royal Rumble.

Rousey hasn’t been seen on WWE programming since April 2019, when she competed in the main event of WrestleMania 35 with Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair. Becky Lynch won that match, bringing an end to Rousey’s 231-day reign as Raw Women’s Champion. Lynch believes Rousey wants to return to get her win back.

“We have a lot of people,” Lynch said in an interview with Graham Matthews of Bleacher Report last November. “Then, of course, is Ronda Rousey going to be champing at the bit to get back now that she sees what I’ve accomplished? Maybe she’d want to accomplish the same, maybe she’ll want to get retribution for the loss I gave her at WrestleMania 35. The same loss that’s caused me to be champion ever since,” Lynch added.

According to Wrestling Inc, Rousey’s contract came to an end in April of last year, and since there’s been no word of her signing a new deal, she is almost certainly a free agent.

Last September, Rousey and her husband Travis Browne welcomed their first child as a couple, La’akea Makalapuaokalanipō Browne, to the world. La’akea is the first child Rousey and Browne have had together, and Browne’s third child overall as Rousey is a step-mom to two from Browne’s previous relationship.

Ronda Rousey and husband Travis Browne are expecting their first child together.

Rousey released a new YouTube video this morning and announced that she is four months pregnant. She noted that the “baddest baby on the planet” is due around September 22.

Rousey’s video gives an inside look at the January doctor’s appointment where she found out that they were expecting. She teased that there is “definitely much more to the story” that they will be telling later.

The former RAW Women’s Champion also teased that there will be a gender reveal to come soon, and it was indicated that they already know what the gender is. Rousey thanked everyone for the well wishes and positivity that got them to this point.

Ronda has now removed the video from YouTube.

Rousey’s original WWE contract expired on April 10 but WWE President & Chief Revenue Officer Nick Khan recently stated that she would be “coming back at a certain point in time,” but no specifics were given. Rousey has been away from WWE since working the WrestleMania 35 main event in 2019, with Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair. She originally took time away from WWE so that she and Browne could expand their family.

Rousey recently appeared on the “Table Talk” podcast with WWE Hall of Famer D-Von Dudley and talked about a possible WWE return. You can click here for those comments.

Ronda Rousey, who was last seen in a WWE ring during the main event of WrestleMania 35, has teased yet another return to the squared circle.

While responding to WWE’s twitter account, which looked back her 2018 match against Natalya, Ronda said she was looking forward to a rematch against her training partner.

“One of my favorite matches – such a huge challenge in so many ways, what a crazy day looking forward to a rematch someday @NatbyNature,” she wrote.

Ronda was recently spotted training with JTG and Ariel Toombs, aka Teal Piper, the daughter of WWE Hall of Famer Roddy Piper. Those images–of her training inside a wrestling ring–reignited speculation regarding her potential comeback to the WWE.

Ronda, who is under contract with WWE until April 2021, has already shot down the possibility of a full-time comeback to wrestling. However, she has kept the door open to a part-time schedule which would see her wrestle only at a few PPV events in a year.

“I’m never going to be a full-time [wrestler] again, which requires me to be on the road for over 200 days a year. It’s just it was I needed to do it in order to learn and get immersed into it and really understand what was going on, but it’s just not the lifestyle for me,” Ronda said earlier this year.
