WWE Official Sonya Deville and former WWE RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey share a similar background prior to their WWE careers. They entered the world of WWE from MMA and professional fighting. In the past, Rousey and Deville exchanged blows on Twitter, resulting in many believing the two do not get along. Deville recently leaked an interesting meeting involving WWE Chairman Vince McMahon.
Sonya Deville disproves Ronda Rousey ‘heat’ claims
During an interview with talkSPORT, Deville shot down rumors regarding any heat she has with Ronda Rousey and explained that her relationship with the ‘Baddest Woman on the Planet’ is just fine.
“It was good [our relationship]. We worked together a bit on Total Divas, it was fine.” said Deville.
Ronda Rousey has not competed in WWE since WrestleMania 35, where she was pinned by Becky Lynch in a triple threat match, also involving Charlotte Flair, to lose her WWE Raw Women’s Championship. Sonya Deville also spoke on why she wants to square off against Rousey if Rousey ever returns to a WWE ring. UFC President recently also revealed how he paid the UFC Hall of Famer, Rousey.
“Ronda is definitely someone I would like to fight if she comes back around. Make her regret calling me an MMA hobbyist,” Deville asserted. “Which is ironic because me transitioning from MMA to wrestling, and she did, wouldn’t that make her a hobbyist?”
Sonya Deville is yet to compete in a singles match in WWE since she was last seen at SummerSlam pay-per-view last year. At the event she had lost a ‘Loser Leaves WWE’ match to Mandy Rose, who is currently performing in NXT 2.0 and is the NXT Women’s Champion.
Deville is currently entailed a heated rivalry with WWE SmackDown star Naomi and has been tricking her into matches.
