Update On Ronda Rousey’s WrestleMania 31 Appearance, Future Plans Not Clear

Arguably one of the biggest ‘WrestleMania moments’ tonight was Ronda Rousey stepping into the squared circle alongside The Rock, then proceeding to judo toss Triple H and rag doll his wife Stephanie McMahon.

It was no secret Rousey would be in attendance at the pay-per-view tonight and there had been speculation she could be involved in some sort of capacity, and boy was she. MMAFighting.com report that the appearance had been in the pipeline for months:

Rousey and The Rock are indeed friends, too. They share the same agent, Brad Slater of William Morris Endeavor.

According to Slater, Rousey’s Wrestlemania appearance had been in the works for months, however, he said it was unclear whether she will actually compete in a future match.

“I’ve told you many times how I work with Dana [White],” Slater told MMAFighting.com’s Ariel Helwani in regards to whether the UFC knew about Rousey’s involvement in the show. “I always, always call him and make sure he is OK with anything we ever do in movies, television and otherwise.”

It was a great standalone segment and could have just been that, or it may have been the plant for a McMahon-Rousey match or a mixed tag with The Rock and Triple H involved.
