The segment in which Ronda Rousey challenged Charlotte Flair also saw her attack Sonya Deville and injure her arm. The WWE official was wearing her jacket, which raised the question of whether Rousey will get punished for putting her hands on an authority figure.
Mark Henry spoke about this on Busted Open, stating that he wants to see some consequences for last week's attack.
"You've been telling me that when Sonya Deville takes the jacket off she's a talent. As long as she's got the jacket on she's the GM. So now is there going to be punishment? Ronda should get punished. You can't put your hands on an official. Right? Am I wrong?" questioned Mark Henry.
It remains to be seen if there will be a follow-up to this tonight on SmackDown.
