Why Ronda Rousey Was Picked For WWE Total Divas Cast

Ronda Rousey will be included in season 9 of Total Divas which is going to probably bring a lot of viewers to the show. That is the plan.

Mike Johnson stated on PW Insider Elite audio that a lot of fans have asked him why WWE and E! Network brought on Ronda Rousey to Total Divas. The answer is quite simple because she’s a huge draw.

“It’s quite simple. She’s a name and they want to use her to try and draw ratings on E!”

“So why is Ronda Rousey around? Well, Ronda Rousey is a name they can utilize to gain attention. Ronda Rousey will get far more mainstream media attention than Natalya or Carmella or Nia Jax no matter how much we might enjoy them as personalities or as wrestlers. They are not mainstream celebrities who are doing Fox TV shows and starring in movies with Marky Mark.”

Ronda Rousey doesn’t even have to come back to film additional footage, because as we previously reported they already have the season wrapped up. We’re just waiting to view the episodes once the new season starts on October 2nd.

If WWE and E! Network have anything to say about it, bringing in Ronda Rousey to Total Divas will be a much bigger draw than they’ve previously had before.
