Last night Raw General Manager, Kurt Angle, announced Ronda Rousey will be appearing at the upcoming Elimination Chamber PPV. According to Angle’s comments, Rousey will be there to sign her WWE contract.

WWE has specifically mentioned Rousey will be signing a contract with the Raw brand.

While WWE and Rousey have said she will be a full-time Superstar with WWE, it is expected she will work a part-time schedule but make WWE her top priority.



Rousey signing a Raw-exclusive contract takes a possible Rousey vs. Charlotte Flair match at WrestleMania off the table. She could still end up having a match with Stephanie McMahon, Alexa Bliss, Asuka, or a mixed-gender match, however.

The Elimination Chamber takes place February 25th, 2018 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The event will feature the first-ever women’s Elimination Chamber match as well as the men’s chamber match which will decide who faces Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania.
