Jim Ross Isn't 100 Percent on Ronda Rousey Becoming a WWE Diva

Will Ronda Rousey eventually become the WWE Divas champion? Perhaps. Perhaps not. But more likely the latter: Dana White has said Rousey is "one and done" in the WWE after showing up in WrestleMania 31, and Rousey is already indisputably the best female UFC fighter in the game. But Rousey herself floated the possibility out there, so we speculate.

The latest to add to the speculation is the incomparable former WWE commentator Jim Ross. He weighed in on the idea of Rousey the WWE Divas Champion on The Ross Report. He's not sold on her being a WWE Diva, but there are other possibilities.

It was timely of Charlotte [the current WWE Divas Champion] to stand her ground and respond to Ronda recently but I would rather see RR versus a heel specifically Stephanie McMahon as I feel that’s the money. Plus, do you really want Ronda Rousey going for the WWE Divas Title? Is Rousey a Diva? Is the term Diva still relevant? In any event, Ronda Rousey in a hot, personal issue interests me more than her going for the title at this time. The question is can Rousey and WWE come together for something BIG for the Texas WrestleMania?”

Ross does raise a good point: What does it mean, if anything, if Rousey — who's known breaking trained fighters in seconds — gets labeled a "Diva"? But again, this is just speculation.
