Ronda Rousey's recently commented on women's division of WWE

The Baddest Woman on the Planet has been very vocal about her feelings on regarding WWE's women's division on social media. During a recent vlog, Ronda Rousey opened up on the state of the company's women's division and criticized the lack of depth in it.

“One thing that’s really missing is none of the women have storylines aside from titles, like you watch pay per views and there’s several men’s matches that aren’t for titles and the women don’t really get any non-title storylines which I feel like would really add to the depth of people getting to know everyone’s different character before they got into the title picture," said Ronda Rousey.

Emma returning to WWE would surely boost the women's division that has been missing some of its top stars in Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, and Sasha Banks, to name a few.
