Things started quick in this #SmackDown Women's Champion Match between @RondaRousey and @YaOnlyLivvOnce! https://t.co/It4Q0SWc57
The match started with a series of shots from Rousey, followed by a knee strike to the champion. After regaining her composure, Morgan hit her opponent with her series of shots and deflected her rival's moves, but Ronda took command of the match.
Towards the bout's conclusion, Rousey went for an armbar which Morgan managed to take control of, and reached the bottom rope to break the hold. After locking in the armbar again, the champion changed position, which prompted Rousey's shoulders to be put on the mat. The referee then counted to three just as Liv tapped out.
