A couple of weeks ago, WWE said that Ronda Rousey would be on every Raw up to WrestleMania. She ended up not being on Raw last night and the original WWE.com article was deleted from the website and Rousey was no longer advertised on any Raw other than the final one before WrestleMania, as of yesterday.
Today, Rousey is being advertised for the next three Raws again on WWE.com, in Dallas, Cleveland and Atlanta.
However, that doesn’t necessarily guarantee that she’ll appear on TV and it’s possible that she could just end up being part of a dark segment for a week or two.
Reason for Absence
According to PWInsider, the reason that Ronda Rousey missed Raw was that she was “traveling to the Northeast” to prepare for her WrestleMania match. She and Kurt Angle were in Stamford, CT yesterday working on the match.
Pro Wrestling Sheet added that Ronda Rousey was scheduled for medical testing in Pittsburgh on Monday, while Raw was in Detroit.
