During Rousey’s in-ring interview with Michael Cole on Smackdown, Sonya Deville took Rousey out with a chop block from behind. Later, Adam Pearce confronted Deville and asked her why as a WWE official, she was getting physically involved with the roster. Pearce didn’t wait for an answer, but told Deville that the match with Rousey was made official.

Rousey will face Charlotte Flair for the WWE Smackdown Women’s Championship on the first night of WrestleMania 38 in Dallas, Texas.
