Me and Ronda Rousey are so ‘unstoppable’ in WWE we may FIGHT EACH OTHER, says Shayna Baszler ahead of Money in the Bank
SHAYNA BASZLER says she and Ronda Rousey are so “unstoppable” that they might end up having to fight EACH OTHER in WWE.
The formidable duo are the undisputed Women’s Tag Team Champions after capturing the titles in May.

They followed that up last month by beating NXT Tag Team champs Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn to unify the belts.
Baszler, 42, and former UFC champion Rousey, 36, go way back.
They lived together during their early mixed martial arts days, which saw them train and spar against each other, before reaching UFC and WWE success.
The two have never clashed in the ring since transitioning from MMA but are now forging a legacy as the most formidable duo in the women’s division.
It is Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez who are next in line to try and take the titles away from them at London’s O2 Arena tonight at Money In The Bank.
Baszler spoke exclusively to Sun Sport ahead of that defence, and said: “When me and Ronda are on the same page we are pretty unstoppable and I think we bring a lot of importance to the titles.
“When was the last time they were defended on a pay-per-view, never mind a big one like Money in the Bank?
“You would be hard pressed to not name us in discussions of tag teams that have come along, I think that we are right up there.”

But what happens if they continue to destroy all before them?
The former NXT champion says that the fierce competitiveness of both stars means that would eventually lead to a dream match between the two best friends.
Baszler said: “Look, if me and Ronda walk through the whole division and there is nobody left then we would have to.”
And she also revealed the one thing that she fears losing.
Baszler added: “I wouldn’t say feared, but there’s always, before walking out of that curtain, an anticipation but that discomfort has kind of become comforting.
“I always say that when I was fighting in MMA, I remember the fight when I did not feel that any more and that was the beginning of the end for me.
“So I take it as a comfort to me, I know that I’m still good.
“That feeling is something that I kind of enjoy.”
