Ronda Rousey

– A photo Bayley shared on Instagram of herself with Sasha Banks on Thursday drew a negative response from Ronda Rousey.

“The Baddest Woman on the Planet” replied in the comments, “fauxhorsewomen.”

Banks quickly responded to Rousey’s remark, writing, “I hope Alexa wins (hahaha).”

Bayley responded to Rousey with the following: “tell your girls to get some ring gear. We’re waiting.”

Rousey and Bayley’s banter is in reference to a simmering rivalry between WWE’s Four Horsewomen (Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Bayley, and Sasha Banks) and the Four Horsewomen of MMA (Rousey Rousey, Shayna Baszler, Marina Shafir and Jessamyn Duke). Both groups had a confrontation behind the scenes at the Mae Young Classic last year (sans Sasha, who was doing a media tour in Australia), but WWE didn’t follow up on it.
