The rumours of Ronda Rousey finally competing in a WWE match was there much before the Wrestlemania season picked up.
As it continued to grow, we saw an emphatic debut of the mainstream sports star in WWE at the Royal Rumble PPV. She made a surprise appearance once the history-making match for the women’s division was over.
Going forward, she signed an official contract with the WWE Raw division which never went, smoothly. It happened due to the rift that Ronda Rousey and Stephanie McMahon possessed against each other after sharing the stage at Wrestlemania 31. The former UFC star ripped her arm from the commissioner’s body.
So, Stephanie McMahon alongside her husband standing by her side, started to seek retributions against the newest member of the WWE Raw women’s division.
Kurt Angle stood by the side of the former Olympian to set this up as a fair fight between the two teams. It set up the huge collision against each other at Wrestlemania, last night.

Triple H and Stephanie McMahon made a grand entrance, as expected. They both came out in motorcycles with a gang of women riding in front of them.
Also, they both did Triple H’s water mist while entering the ring. Kurt Angle made his original entrance with no special things while Ronda Rousey put on a mini kilt giving tribute to Rowdy Roddy Piper at Wrestlemania.

It was Kurt Angle and Triple H who started the match. After the initial takedowns, the crowd broke into chants saying ‘we want Ronda’.
So, Angle was forced to bring her into the ring forcing Stephanie McMahon in the contest, as well. In the meantime, Triple H took out Kurt Angle at the ringside area. Angle was thrown into the steel steps.

The legal tag was never applied, and hence, Angle vs Triple H continued. After digesting some brutal beatdowns, Angle was finally able to tag in Ronda Rousey, and McMahon looked terrified.
Ronda unloaded a series of moves into the Raw commissioner before she tagged it back to her husband. Triple H was able to hit a Pedigree on Angle, but Ronda Rousey broke the pin.

She was ready to fight Triple H showing audacity and did the same for sometimes, too until Stephanie McMahon came to the ring to deliver a slap to her face.
Afterwards, both Triple H and Stephanie went for the Pedigree move only to get it countered. Angle sent Triple H out of the ring while Rousey locked in the arm-bar on Stephanie who tapped out immediately to let their opponents win the Wrestlemania match.
