Total Divas show is currently in progress with the eighth season. A big name, Paige returned to this season as a major attraction. But it seems that it’s not enough to pull off the ratings. The viewership keeps on drooling despite the controversial acts done by the Divas. So the show hosts might be in search of a bigger mainstream name.

Details on Total Divas 8th season

With that being said, Ronda Rousey comes in mind first who is the face of the WWE Raw women’s division. It might be unthinkable that a real athlete like her would do a Diva-centric show. But we can’t rule out the chances considering the money offered by the Total Divas show makers. She is no stranger to movies or TV shows, as well.

Nikki Bella slapped Ronda Rousey

Reports from Wrestling Observer Newsletter suggested that Total Divas viewership hit a new low during the 5th episode of the 8th season. It was the smallest in number since season six airing. This might have forced the producers to think about a new inclusion to the popular reality TV series. They can’t find a better name than Ronda Rousey, for now.

Here are the updates courtesy of comicbook.com,

“According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE is considering approaching Rousey to join the cast of E!’s slumping, but still popular show. This sounds like a rumor before the rumor, but the recipe of adding Rousey to anything seems to be working well for WWE. Total Divas could certainly use a jolt of something interesting as Season 8’s average viewership has slipped to 386,000—nearly half of Season 6’s numbers. And the idea of adding Rousey could be an easy fix for E! and WWE.”

Previously Ronda Rousey featured in a James Bond movie. Earlier this year, she was part of the Mark Wahlberg flick named Mile 22. She is thinking of retirement really soon to start a family. Total Divas could be a career backup plan for her from that perspective. It could focus on the family of the ‘baddest woman on planet earth.’

The source also clarified that the WWE officials are nurturing the name of Ronda Rousey. They are yet to approach her with the same offer. It solely depends on the former UFC Bantamweight Champion whether she accepts the deal or not. Previously, names like Sasha Banks, Charlotte Flair, and Becky Lynch denied being part of Total Divas.

Ronda Rousey going into a storyline at WWE Evolution itself is a hint that she might be heading to sign a deal for the E Network reality TV show. The Bellas are veterans when it comes to television. They could be handy enough to convince the mainstream star for the show, they help build. For now, they look forward to delivering a successful main event this Sunday.
