Ronda Rousey nearly got what was coming to her after issuing an open challenge to all the women in the SmackDown locker room.
After taunting every other female wrestler during the October 28 episode of SmackDown, the recently crowned SmackDown Women's Champion found a worthy challenger in former NXT star, Emma.
Emma, who might be known to other fans as Tenille Dashwood, made a surprising return to the WWE and she nearly walked away with the "W". As the champ was more interested with talking trash to the audience, Emma came close to scoring an upset several times. Emma's performance was so good that Rousey had to resort to a dirty tactic to score the win and retain her belt. If nothing else, Emma's sudden appearance as a potential contender should make for an intriguing storyline where the now-heel Rousey finds herself much more vulnerable than she expected.
More importantly, it was nice to see Emma return to the WWE. Her initial run with the WWE wasn't quite what you'd expected from a talent of her caliber.
