WWE has officially announced that Ronda Rousey will be competing at the upcoming SummerSlam pay-per-view event.
As seen on this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW in Buffalo, NY at the KeyBank Center on the USA Network, the former UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion attacked RAW Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss and Mickie James in the ring.
This led to RAW General Manager Kurt Angle later revealing that as a result of this attack, Rousey’s suspension has been extended by one week but that she would take on Bliss for the RAW Women’s Title at SummerSlam.
Rousey was supposed to be off WWE television as she serves a 30-day suspension but despite being suspended, she has worked all of the events that she is advertised for and even made an appearance at Sunday’s (July 15, 2018) WWE Extreme Rules pay-per-view event in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at the PPG Paints Arena on the WWE Network where she got involved in the RAW Women’s Title match between Bliss and Nia Jax.
SummerSlam takes place on Sunday, August 19th from Brooklyn, New York at the Barclays Center. The dual-brand event will air live on the WWE Network and select pay-per-view providers.
