Back in March, Ronda Rousey shocked the wrestling world when she showed up at AEW Revolution to have Marina Shafir’s back in a post-match angle with Toni Storm. There was no follow-up to Rousey’s appearance, perhaps because Storm has also been gone from AEW since then.
Shafir is now challenging Mercedes Mone for the AEW women’s world title at Saturday’s Full Gear pay-per-view, and there is some fan speculation about this match leading to Ronda’s surprise return to AEW for a rematch against The CEO.
During a new interview this week with The Sportster’s Adam Barnard, Marina was asked if there is a chance that The Baddest Woman on the Planet will return to AEW and potentially join the Death Riders. Shafir sounded optimistic about that happening, but seemed to only be speculating about it herself because she loves surprises so much.
“Here’s the thing. This is what I like to say about things that haven’t happened yet. That means that there’s a pretty good chance that things could happen. And it may not seem likely right now, but you know, that’s one of the things that I love about professional wrestling.
…If you really keep your nose out of the fucking business, professional wrestling can give you some of the best surprises live. I think that is why our audience is so awesome, is because it’s an audience that loves surprises. Who fucking wants to know it all? Like, that’s so lame. Ugh. I never wanted to be smart to that shit. That’s what I love. And what a surprise that would be, right?”
When do you think Ronda Rousey will return to AEW, or will we never see her Where The Best Wrestle ever again? Let me me know in the comments below, Cagesiders.
