Backstage News On Why Ronda Rousey Dropped The SmackDown Women’s Title To Charlotte Flair

Charlotte Flair spent several months sitting on the sidelines in 2022, but she shocked the world when she returned in December and beat Ronda Rousey for the SmackDown Women’s Title in her first match back. Ronda didn’t compete at the Royal Rumble and with WrestleMania season now in full swing fans have been wondering what WWE could have in store for the Baddest Woman on the Planet.

Dave Meltzer recently talked about the SmackDown Women’s Title picture on Wrestling Observer Radio and he noted that Ronda dropped the belt because she wants to work in the women’s tag team division with Shayna Baszler.

“Ronda then decided she wanted to be a tag team champion with Shayna Baszler because she’s always wanted to do that run, so she will do that run.”

It was recently reported that Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler are expected to challenge Dakota Kai & Iyo Sky for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania 39. Stay tuned for updates.
