SummerSlam 2023: Ronda Rousey And Shayna Baszler To Battle In An MMA-Style Match

WWE has officially confirmed several exciting matches for its upcoming Pay-Per-View event, SummerSlam, scheduled to take place at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan, just a little over a week from now.





The main event will feature the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns, facing off against Jey Uso in a captivating Tribal Combat Match. Another marquee matchup will see WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Seth Rollins, going head-to-head with Finn Balor. Additionally, the highly anticipated showdown between Brock Lesnar and Cody Rhodes has also been confirmed as a top-tier bout for the event. #

Two former UFC stars, Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler, will take the stage to showcase their MMA backgrounds in a special match type promoted as a "fight." The company is highlighting the expertise of both competitors and framing the contest as an intense MMA rules bout.





The women's division will also be on full display at SummerSlam. WWE Women's Champion Asuka will defend her title against the formidable duo of Charlotte Flair and Bianca Belair in a triple-threat match. Moreover, the WWE Intercontinental Champion, GUNTHER, will put his title on the line against the fierce Drew McIntyre.





As for the celebrity involvement, Logan Paul is set to square off against Ricochet in what promises to be an entertaining clash.





In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer mentioned that the concept for Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler's match is not a traditional street fight but rather an MMA rules style, which is a logical decision considering both competitors' extensive backgrounds in mixed martial arts.
