WWE Reportedly Scrapping Major WrestleMania Match

WWE’s Show Of Shows is always a hot topic of discussion and it seems like the WrestleMania 34 event is going to be losing one of its marquee matches. After all, just because something was planned doesn’t mean it will come out in the end.

Ronda Rousey has been a name that a lot of people have assumed would be a part of WrestleMania 34 next year and that match was said to be encounter pitting WWE’s 4 Horsewomen and Ronda Rousey, Jessamyn Duke, Marina Shafir, and Shayna Baszler against each other on a big stage.

But it looks like plans have changed once again and while Ronda Rousey’s name is still extremely likely to be showing up in WWE sooner than later, the same might not be true for the rest of her fellow Horsewomen.

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports Duke and Shafir are not training in the art of pro wrestling anymore even though they were training up until not too long ago. This news would lend a lot of weight to the idea that WWE has scrapped the planned 4 Horsewomen vs 4 Horsewomen for WrestleMania 34.

Since the idea behind Ronda Rousey’s WWE debut seems to have changed, there could be something new in the works for the former UFC Bantamweight Champion. It is also reported Shayna Baszler’s push in NXT might be an indication this plan of the two factions locking horns in New Orleans might have been scrapped as well.

But even though Ronda Rousey might not be competing alongside Baszler, Duke, and Shafir at Mania, the door seems to still be very open for Rousey’s eventual WWE debut. Some women in the Women’s Royal Rumble match are assuming Rowdy Ronda will be involved in some way as well. But Rousey has been training for so long that she seems to be a lock for WrestleMania at this point.
