WWE Royal Rumble 2019 Results: Ronda Rousey Vs. Sasha Banks Women’s Title Match

One of the special attractions of Royal Rumble 2019 was the WWE Raw women’s title match. Ronda Rousey was up against perhaps her toughest challenge to date. The handpicked name Sasha Banks was her opponent who is a veteran competitor from the flagship show. For the first time ever, these two competed in a fresh matchup.

Expectations were pretty much high from this Royal Rumble contest. When it comes to Ronda Rousey, she has set a benchmark ever since starting her backup career in the WWE after leaving the UFC brand. Sasha Banks, on the other hand, is perhaps the most technical wrestler available from the female roster of the WWE.

No wonder fans wanted this to be a contest to remember for a long time. Also, these two has grown quite a bad blood between each other over the past couple of weeks. Ronda Rousey accused her opponent of being a fluke whereas Sasha Banks mentioned the champ as the one whom WWE handed everything. So this match had become more to defend their pride.

The two made their entrances with white in-ring Royal Rumble gears to start the match. They talked trash for a bit before Sasha Banks went for a slap. But Ronda Rousey blocked it and took her down. But the challenger countered it, right away. Rousey backfired hitting her with suplexes hard onto the canvas multiple times. She went right for the arm-bar which Sasha dodged somehow going outside the ring.

Ronda Rousey went for some shots and accidentally missed a punch and hit hard into the ring post. Sasha Banks connected with a suicide dive and sent her opponent into the steel steps. She targeted the injured fist of the champion as this Royal Rumble title match progressed. Ronda Rousey ate a big boot from Sasha Banks as the challenger continued to work in her right arm, continuously.

Ronda Rousey somehow managed to counter going for Piper’s pit and but Sasha Banks countered into an armbar of her own. She almost tweaked the champ’s fingers that was nasty to watch. Ronda eventually hit with the fireman’s carry and locked in the arm-bar outside the ring which did not count. Sasha Banks came back with the Bank Statement momentarily before the champion hit her with a series of Piper’s Pits to pick up a clean pinfall win. The match ended with both the competitors showing respect to each other.
