The AEW landscape was left in disbelief with the shocking debut of Ronda Rousey at the 2026 Revolution pay-per-view. The Baddest Woman on the Planet came from the audience and got into the ring right after Timeless Toni Storm defeated her MMA cohort, Marina Shafir, in a singles match. Rousey’s appearance surely garnered huge attention, and it could possibly lead to her return to wrestling in AEW.

Should that happen, here are five matches that can happen for Ronda Rousey in All Elite Wrestling, including a blockbuster rematch that took place seven years ago.

#5. Toni Storm

Ronda Rousey made her debut after Toni Storm’s match at AEW Revolution 2026. She called her back to the ring, and Storm agreed. She came rushing down to the ring; however, before they could trade blows, the AEW officials stepped in to stop the chaos. Should The Rowdy One sign on the dotted line with Tony Khan’s company, a feud with Storm could be the first program for her in AEW, which would surely be interesting to watch.

#4. Britt Baker

Britt Baker is still one of the top AEW stars despite being absent from the promotion for a long time. Moreover, Baker recently revealed that her return was up to management, not her. At the same time, with Tony Khan bringing top attractions back at AEW Revolution, he could do the same with The Doctor. Should that happen and Ronda Rousey signs with AEW, it could be a huge blockbuster match between the two at a major event.

#3. Kris Statlander

Kris Statlander is one of the most dominant AEW stars in the women’s division. She has achieved great success in the company, having held both the AEW Women’s World and TBS titles, thanks to her intense in-ring style and impressive physical stature. The Cosmic Killer could prove to be a formidable opponent for Ronda Rousey should she agree to return to the ring and officially sign with Tony Khan’s promotion.

#2. Marina Shafir

Marina Shafir and Ronda Rousey rose to prominence as part of the Four Horsewomen in MMA and forged a close friendship. Following that, they both transitioned to professional wrestling. Rousey experienced great success during her tenure in WWE, including multiple Women’s titles and even a main-event WrestleMania match. On the other hand, Shafir has been rising up the ranks in AEW since becoming a part of The Death Riders. With their storied history and real-life chemistry, they could produce one of the most stellar in-ring matches.

#1. Mercedes Mone

One of the top matches from Ronda Rousey’s WWE career was against Mercedes Mone, then known as Sasha Banks. Both women delivered one of the most captivating in-ring matches at the 2019 Royal Rumble event in WWE history. At the same time, they were two of WWE’s biggest draws during that era. With Mone currently one of the box-office attractions for All Elite Wrestling, Tony Khan could run this exciting showdown back in his promotion, should Rousey sign a contract with his company as an in-ring performer.
