Sasha Banks hands Ronda Rousey her first televised loss ahead of Royal Rumble matchup
Banks made Natalya tap out in the main event of Raw, handing Rousey her first loss in the WWE.
Although Rousey did not tap out or get pinned, her teammate did, counting as a loss for the WWE Raw Women’s Champion. Rousey’s record in the WWE changes to 50-1, however, she remains undefeated in single’s competition.

The win puts Sasha Banks in a very good position as they head into the Royal Rumble, after claiming she would teach Rousey how to lose. The Boss technically has a win over The Baddest Woman On The Planet, so expect some words from the 4x champ on social media in the coming days to get in Rousey’s head.
Rousey defends her Raw Women’s Championship against Banks this Sunday at the Royal Rumble event, streaming live on WWE Network.
