Ronda Rousey Forces Alexa Bliss To Tap Out And Captures Raw Women’s Championship At WWE SummerSlam

Ronda Rousey is the first wrestler to earn a Women’s Championship in WWE and UFC. 

Ronda Rousey has been going after Alexa Bliss since Money in the Bank when Bliss used the Money in the Briefcase as a weapon on her and Nia Jax and then cashed it in to become Raw Women’s Champion. At WWE SummerSlam, Rousey quickly dispatched of Bliss, submitted her with an armbar, and became the new Champion.

The following is an excerpt from the Fightful Wrestling play-by-play provided by David Tees.

Rousey chases Bliss back into the ring, Bliss then attacks Rousey with a few strikes as she got back in the ring. Rousey nails Bliss with a combination followed by a bunch of judo throws, Rousey again nails Bliss with a spinning slam. Rousey goes for the arm bar and transitions to a normal arm bar to force a tap out.
