Rousey & Natalya vs. Nia Jax & Tamina announced for WWE Raw

Ronda Rousey is set to wrestle on Raw for the sixth time in her career.

WWE has announced Rousey & Natalya vs. Nia Jax & Tamina for this coming Monday’s Raw. The match comes in advance of Rousey defending her Raw Women’s Championship against Jax at TLC on December 16.

On this week’s episode, Jax cut a promo before Rousey interrupted her. Jax and Tamina were about to attack Rousey, Natalya came out to make the save, and The Riott Squad ambushed Natalya. Rousey fought The Riott Squad off and chased them away.

Rousey has wrestled in three singles matches and two tag matches on Raw. She retained her title against Mickie James on the post-Survivor Series edition of Raw, which was set up in storyline after Rousey issued a challenge for anyone to come out and face her.

Monday’s Raw is taking place at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.
