WWE: Ronda Rousey to make UK debut in August at London's O2 Arena
Wednesday 16 May 2018 06:40, UK
Ronda Rousey will make her British debut for WWE in an event at the O2 Arena in London on August 29.
The former UFC champion has not appeared on the United Kingdom dates of the current tour but will be involved in the one-off special event at the end of the summer.
Rousey could be Raw women's champion by that point - she faces current title holder Nia Jax for the belt at Money In The Bank, live on Sky Sports Box Office on June 17.
Jax made the challenge to Rousey at a WWE media appearance at Radio City Hall in New York, and it was accepted by the former UFC champion.
The match will be only Rousey's second for the company, following her debut appearance at WrestleMania, where she teamed with Kurt Angle to beat Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.
Rousey earned a large amount of praise for her performance at WrestleMania, in which she traded blows with both McMahon and her husband in a match many selected as the best of the night.
